Integrated Prompt Space for 3D Design Context
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Conventional CAD applications divert user focus from 3D objects in the design space due to a separate and external prompt space, leading to distractions and difficulty in understanding the context of prompt interactions.
Innovation Solution
Integrating the prompt space within the design space, allowing it to be displayed proximate to the current location selected by the user, such as a 3D object or an empty location, to reduce distractions and improve focus on design work.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If the prompt space is displayed separately from the design space, then the user can interact with the AI model, but the user focus is diverted from the 3D objects in the design space
Solution Approach 1:
The patent merges the prompt space with the design space by displaying the prompt space at a placement location within the design space. This integration allows users to interact with the AI model without being diverted from the 3D objects, as the prompt interface is embedded within the existing design workspace rather than occupying a separate external panel.
2Ease of operation
If the prompt space is displayed separately from the design space, then the user can input prompts, but the user has difficulty understanding the context of prompt interactions
Solution Approach 1:
By integrating the prompt space within the design space, the patent preserves contextual information about which 3D objects or locations are associated with specific prompt interactions. Users can view the current location and understand the context of their prompt history directly within the design space, eliminating the loss of contextual information that occurs with separate external panels.
3Object-affected harmful factors
If the prompt space is integrated within the design space, then the user focus remains on the design work, but the interface complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments the prompt space into a modular component that can be displayed at specific placement locations within the design space. This segmentation allows the prompt interface to be integrated without creating a monolithic complex structure, as the prompt space can be positioned and managed as a distinct functional unit within the larger design space framework.
Data Source
AI summary
In various embodiments, a computer-implemented method for displaying a prompt space, the method comprising displaying a design space comprising one or more design objects, receiving a selection of a current location within the design space, and displaying the prompt space at a placement location within the design space based on the current location. In other embodiments, a computer-implemented method for displaying a prompt history, the method comprising displaying a design space that includes a first design object, displaying a first prompt-history marker within the design space, the first prompt-history marker representing a first prompt history associated with the first design object, and in response to receiving a selection for viewing the first prompt history, displaying the first prompt history in a prompt space within the design space.
