Mobile Terminal Dual-Screen Omnidirectional Image Display
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Mobile terminals cannot display the entirety of omnidirectional images, requiring users to perform multiple touch inputs to view different parts of the image, making it cumbersome to navigate and find specific images within the omnidirectional content.
Innovation Solution
A mobile terminal with a short-range communication module to receive omnidirectional images and a controller to display a first image on the main screen while simultaneously displaying a second image related to the object information or events on a sub-screen, allowing quick access to desired images based on user intention.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Measurement precision
If only a partial image of the omnidirectional image is displayed on the main screen, then the display can show a clear and detailed view of one area, but the user must perform multiple touch inputs to view other parts of the image, increasing operation complexity and time consumption
Solution Approach 1:
The display screen is divided into multiple regions: a main screen area for displaying the primary partial image with high clarity, and a sub-screen area for simultaneously displaying additional partial images or thumbnails. This segmentation allows users to view multiple areas of the omnidirectional image without requiring multiple touch operations to navigate, thus maintaining display clarity while improving ease of operation.
2Device complexity
If multiple touch inputs are required to navigate through different parts of the omnidirectional image, then the display can maintain a simple structure, but the user experience deteriorates due to cumbersome navigation and increased time to find desired images
Solution Approach 1:
The system pre-processes the omnidirectional image to generate multiple partial images or thumbnails representing different areas of the omnidirectional scene. These pre-generated images are then displayed simultaneously on the main screen and sub-screen, allowing users to quickly locate and select desired areas without performing multiple touch inputs for navigation, thereby reducing image search time while maintaining display structure simplicity.
3Ease of operation
If the entire omnidirectional image is displayed at once, then the user can view all areas simultaneously, but the display resolution and clarity of individual images are reduced
Solution Approach 1:
The display interface transitions from a single-dimensional full-image view to a multi-dimensional layout where the main screen displays a high-resolution partial image and the sub-screen simultaneously displays additional partial images or thumbnails. This dimensional change in the display interface allows users to access multiple areas of the omnidirectional image while maintaining high display clarity for each viewed area, avoiding the need to compromise resolution for comprehensive viewing.

AI summary
A mobile terminal including a wireless communication processor configured to receive an omnidirectional image from a photographing device; a display; and a controller configured to display a first image on a main screen of the display corresponding to a first partial image of the omnidirectional image, and display a second image corresponding to a second partial image of the omnidirectional image on a sub-screen, the second image having an object with an attribute similar to an object included in the first image.
