Image Processing Apparatus Display Time Control
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
When switching display settings for a slideshow, existing technologies often result in a blackout or shortened display time for images, particularly when transitioning between different formats like SDR and HDR images, due to mismatched display settings and image characteristics.
Innovation Solution
An image processing apparatus with a setting unit to determine and set a display time for each image, and a control unit that manages image transmission to ensure a single image is displayed for the specified time after completing display setting changes, ensuring consistency between display settings and image characteristics.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If display setting is switched to match image format changes, then image display compatibility is improved, but display time is reduced due to blackout during setting switching
Solution Approach 1:
The control unit determines the display time for each image in advance before actual display occurs. When display setting switching is detected, the system uses the pre-determined display time to compensate for the blackout period, ensuring that images are displayed for the full intended duration despite the temporary display interruption during format conversion.
2Adaptability or versatility
If display setting switching is performed for format changes, then image format adaptability is improved, but display continuity is worsened due to blackout display state
Solution Approach 1:
The control unit detects when display setting switching occurs and uses this feedback information to adjust image transmission timing. By monitoring the display setting changes and knowing the pre-determined display time, the system compensates for the blackout period and maintains continuous display flow, preventing visible interruptions in the slideshow presentation.
3Manufacturing precision
If display setting is changed to match image characteristics, then display quality is improved, but display time is shortened due to setting switching time
Solution Approach 1:
The system pre-determines the display time for each image before the actual display sequence begins. This advance timing information allows the control unit to compensate for any display setting switching that occurs during playback, ensuring that even when display quality adjustments are made for format compatibility, the full intended display time is maintained.

AI summary
An image processing apparatus comprises an interface configured to transmit an image that a display is to be caused to display. The apparatus sets a display time corresponding to a length of time that the display is to be caused to display a single image, and controls image transmission to the display via the interface so that a single image is displayed on the display for at least the display time. In a case where a display setting of the display is changed so that the display setting of the display and a characteristic of an image that the display is to be caused to display correspond, The apparatus controls image transmission so that after the change to the display setting in the display is completed, a single image is displayed on the display for at least the display time.
