Solution Overview

Problem

Current electronic device wallpapers lack dynamic and interactive features that adapt to user behavior or device state, offering limited functionality beyond static or simple dynamic displays.

Innovation Solution

A method and apparatus that adjusts the display effect of a three-dimensional mountain image wallpaper based on the user's number of steps, incorporating changes in display angle and position to simulate mountaineering behavior, enhancing interaction and engagement.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If a static or simple dynamic wallpaper is used, then the device complexity is low, but the adaptability to user behavior and device state is insufficient

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveadaptability to user behaviorVSAvoidwallpaper system complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The wallpaper transitions from a static image to a dynamic three-dimensional mountain scene that automatically responds to user actions. When the user unlocks the device, the wallpaper animates to show the user walking up the mountain, with the mountain peak gradually appearing and the user's position changing dynamically to reflect their progress toward the summit.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

Solution Approach 2:

The wallpaper system incorporates feedback by monitoring user behavior (specifically unlock actions) and adjusting the visual display accordingly. The mountain animation progresses based on user interaction, providing visual feedback about user activity and device state without requiring additional input from the user.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

2Ease of operation

If a three-dimensional interactive mountain image is displayed, then the display experience and user engagement are enhanced, but the processing requirements and energy consumption increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveuser engagementVSAvoidenergy consumption
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSUse of energy by moving object

Solution Approach 1:

The three-dimensional mountain animation operates periodically rather than continuously. The animation triggers automatically at specific moments (when the device is unlocked) and remains static during normal use. This periodic activation reduces energy consumption compared to continuous animation while still providing engaging interactive experiences when needed.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #19Periodic action
