Captured Image Sharing System with Selective Device Information Display
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing captured image sharing systems face low convenience due to the display of undesired content, making it difficult for operators to issue appropriate instructions, as they lack effective methods to selectively designate and display relevant device information.
Innovation Solution
A captured image sharing system that accepts device designation by recognizing the operator's line of sight or operation, specifies the designated device using image recognition or information codes, and displays relevant device information on the operator terminal, preventing undesired content from being designated and improving instruction accuracy.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Loss of information
If all feature amounts included in the captured image are extracted and displayed, then comprehensive information is provided, but undesired content is displayed making it difficult for the operator to issue appropriate instructions
Solution Approach 1:
The system segments the captured image into multiple regions and allows the operator to selectively designate specific regions of interest. Instead of processing and displaying all features uniformly, the operator can focus on particular areas, thereby reducing information overload while maintaining access to comprehensive data when needed.
Solution Approach 2:
The system applies different processing qualities to different regions of the image. Designated regions receive enhanced processing and display priority, while non-designated regions are processed at lower priority or excluded from detailed display. This allows the operator to concentrate on specific areas of interest without being overwhelmed by all image content.
2Quantity of substance
If device information is displayed for all detected devices, then complete device coverage is achieved, but the operator cannot easily identify and instruct on desired content
Solution Approach 1:
The system extracts and highlights only the device information corresponding to designated regions, separating it from other device information in the image. This extraction allows the operator to focus on specific device details without being distracted by information about other devices, while the system maintains the capability to access complete device information when required.
3Extent of automation
If the system processes all image features automatically, then comprehensive analysis is performed, but the operator loses control over which content is displayed
Solution Approach 1:
The system dynamically adjusts between automatic processing and operator-controlled selection. Initially, the system can automatically process and display device information, but the operator retains the ability to intervene by designating specific regions or devices of interest. This dynamic approach allows the system to be highly automated when appropriate while providing operator control when needed, creating a flexible hybrid operation mode.

AI summary
A captured image sharing system 1 that shares a captured image captured by an information terminal 100 with an operator terminal 200 connected via a network accepts a designation for a device appearing on a captured image displayed by the operator terminal 200, specifies the device for which the designation has been accepted, and displays device information of the specified device on the operator terminal 200.
