Master-Slave Handset Video System for Multi-User Entertainment
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Conventional video entertainment systems are limited to single-user operation, requiring multiple participants to use the system in turn, which reduces the overall entertainment experience when multiple users are present in the same region.
Innovation Solution
A video entertainment system comprising a master handset electronic device that generates and processes control signals from multiple slave devices, allowing simultaneous transmission of video data to multiple display devices, enabling multiple participants to view complete display images from different angles or locations.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If a single handset electronic device is used in the conventional video entertainment system, then the system structure is simple, but only one user can use the system at a time, reducing entertainment experience when multiple participants are present
Solution Approach 1:
The system is segmented into a master handset electronic device and multiple slave handset electronic devices. The master device handles video data transmission and display control, while slave devices handle control signal generation and transmission. This segmentation allows multiple users to simultaneously control and view content on their respective display devices, resolving the contradiction between multi-user capability and system complexity.
Solution Approach 2:
The master handset electronic device serves multiple functions: it receives control signals from multiple slave devices, processes video data, and transmits video data to multiple display devices simultaneously. This multi-functionality enables the system to support multiple users without requiring separate complete systems for each user, thus improving adaptability while managing complexity.
2Ease of operation
If multiple participants use the system in turn as in conventional systems, then device complexity remains low, but entertainment experience deteriorates due to waiting and reduced engagement
Solution Approach 1:
By dividing the system into master and slave components where each slave device can independently control and view content simultaneously, the system eliminates the need for users to take turns. Each user has direct access to their own slave device and corresponding display portion, eliminating waiting time and improving ease of simultaneous operation.
3Adaptability or versatility
If a single display device is used, then the system is simple to operate, but multiple users cannot view complete display images from different sights simultaneously
Solution Approach 1:
The display function is segmented across multiple display devices, with each display device showing content relevant to a specific user's perspective or control inputs. This allows multiple users to simultaneously view complete display images from their respective sights without requiring a single complex shared display, thus improving multi-view capability while managing display configuration complexity.
Solution Approach 2:
Each display device is configured to provide optimized display quality for its specific user's location and viewing angle. The master device transmits video data tailored to each slave device's position, ensuring that each user receives high-quality display output appropriate to their local viewing conditions, thereby improving multi-view capability without requiring uniform complex configuration across all displays.

AI summary
A video entertainment system includes a master handset electronic device for generating a first control signal, receiving a second control signal, and processing the first control signal and the second control signal, to generate and transmit a video data; and a slave handset electronic device for generating and transmitting a second control signal to the master handset electronic device.
