Mobile Terminal Background Screen Tag-Based Image Classification
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Users find it cumbersome to set a background screen on mobile terminals as they must select images one by one, even when there are relations between them, lacking an efficient method to group and display related images collectively.
Innovation Solution
A method and mobile terminal configuration that utilize theme tag information to classify and display related images, allowing users to select and configure the background screen by choosing tags, such as user, time, or location-based image groups, enabling easy selection and arrangement of images.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If users select images one by one to set background screen, then the system can handle any image selection, but the operation becomes troublesome and time-consuming
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs preliminary classification of images into related image groups based on tag information before the user needs to set the background screen. This pre-organization allows users to directly select entire groups rather than individually reviewing each image, significantly reducing selection time and effort while maintaining the ability to choose any desired image.
2Adaptability or versatility
If the system displays all stored images, then users can see all available images, but the interface becomes complex and difficult to navigate
Solution Approach 1:
The system segments the complete image library into multiple related image groups based on tag information. Instead of displaying all images as a single overwhelming list, the interface presents organized groups (such as by location, time, or theme), making the interface simpler to navigate while preserving the flexibility to access any image through the grouped structure.
3Productivity
If the system uses tag information to classify images, then related images can be selected collectively, but the system complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The system automatically generates and maintains tag information for images without requiring manual user input or complex configuration. Images are automatically classified into related groups based on embedded metadata (such as EXIF data from cameras), allowing the system to serve itself in organizing content while improving productivity. This self-service approach minimizes the visible complexity to the user.

AI summary
An apparatus and method of setting a background screen of a mobile terminal are provided. The method includes receiving a selection of background screen set menu, generating a tag information list by using at least one tag information which classifies a plurality of images stored in the mobile terminal by related image, displaying the generated tag information list, receiving a selection of at least one tag information from among the displayed tag information list, and configuring a background screen with at least one image classified as the at least one selected tag information.
