Solution Overview
Problem
Current mobile terminals lack the capability to efficiently create and deliver moving images that capture the motion of subjects while recording ambient sounds, limiting user experience in photography and video capture.
Innovation Solution
A mobile terminal with a camera and controller that consecutively photographs images, identifies unchangeable and changeable regions, and merges the changeable regions to create a moving image, allowing for the recording and output of both images and ambient sounds.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If conventional video recording is used to capture motion, then the motion of subjects can be recorded, but the data storage requirements become excessively large
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments the image into multiple regions of interest (ROIs) based on motion detection. Instead of recording all pixels in conventional video, only the segmented ROI regions containing motion are extracted and recorded. This segmentation approach reduces the quantity of data that needs to be stored while preserving the motion capture capability for relevant subjects.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent applies local quality enhancement by focusing computational resources and data storage on specific regions of the image where motion occurs. The system identifies and prioritizes recording only those local regions containing motion, rather than uniformly processing the entire image. This allows high-quality motion capture in critical areas while minimizing storage requirements overall.
2Reliability
If conventional video recording is used to capture motion, then the motion of subjects can be recorded, but the processing complexity increases significantly
Solution Approach 1:
The patent extracts only the essential motion information from the full video stream by identifying and isolating regions containing motion. Instead of processing and storing complete video frames, the system extracts minimal necessary data (motion regions and their characteristics) and discards redundant information. This extraction approach reduces processing complexity while maintaining motion capture reliability.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent applies partial action by performing motion detection and region extraction on only portions of the image where motion is detected, rather than processing the entire image uniformly. The system selectively applies computational algorithms to relevant regions, reducing overall processing complexity while ensuring reliable motion capture in areas that matter.
3Loss of information
If full image recording is used, then all visual information is preserved, but the storage requirements and transmission bandwidth increase
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments the visual information into multiple regions of interest based on motion detection and relevance criteria. By dividing the full image into distinct segments and selectively recording only those containing motion or important visual information, the system preserves essential visual content while dramatically reducing storage requirements compared to recording complete images.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent enhances local quality by focusing recording resources on specific regions of the image where motion occurs or visual importance is detected. Instead of uniformly recording all areas, the system prioritizes and preserves high-quality visual information in critical local regions while minimizing or eliminating recording in static, less important areas.
