Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing vehicle convenience structures lack personalization and fail to provide a unified display system that can adapt to both inside and outside the vehicle, limiting user experience.
Innovation Solution
A movable display system with a driving module for vertical, rotational, and linear movements, controlled by a sensing module that adjusts display alignment and location based on occupant information, allowing external and internal displays.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Device complexity
If a single movable display is used to provide both external and internal displays, then device complexity is reduced, but adaptability to different viewing positions and orientations is worsened
Solution Approach 1:
The display device is made dynamically adjustable through multiple driving modules that enable rotational movement (first driving module), left-right linear movement (second driving module), and vertical movement (third driving module). This allows a single display to adapt to different viewing positions and orientations by physically repositioning itself, resolving the contradiction between using a single display and maintaining adaptability.
Solution Approach 2:
The single movable display is designed to perform multiple functions by switching between first mode (external display) and second mode (internal display). The display can serve different purposes at different times, providing both external and internal display capabilities while using only one physical display device, thus reducing overall system complexity while maintaining versatility.
2Ease of operation
If the display provides external display aligned with occupant's gaze, then ease of operation is improved, but device complexity increases due to sensing and positioning requirements
Solution Approach 1:
A sensing module is integrated to detect occupant information such as gaze direction, posture, and position. This feedback information is used by the controller to automatically adjust the display's orientation and position through the driving modules, aligning the external display with the occupant's gaze. This automated feedback mechanism improves ease of operation while managing the complexity through integrated control.
Solution Approach 2:
The display system performs self-adjustment by using the sensing module to automatically detect occupant characteristics and autonomously positioning the display through the driving modules. The system serves itself by eliminating the need for manual adjustment, thereby improving ease of operation while the integrated control manages the inherent complexity.
3Adaptability or versatility
If the display rotates to provide internal display after occupant boards, then adaptability to internal viewing is improved, but device complexity increases due to additional movement mechanisms
Solution Approach 1:
The display incorporates a first driving module that enables rotational movement, allowing the display to dynamically switch between external and internal display modes. This rotational capability provides adaptability to different viewing scenarios (outside and inside the vehicle) while integrating the movement function into a unified dynamic system rather than separate mechanisms.
Solution Approach 2:
The same rotational mechanism serves dual purposes: it enables the display to function as an external display when rotated to one position and as an internal display when rotated to another position. This multi-functionality approach improves adaptability while avoiding the need for separate mechanisms for each display mode, thereby managing device complexity.

AI summary
A movable display system and a method therefor are provided. The movable display system includes: a movable display; a driving module to realize at least one of a vertical movement of the movable display, a linear movement of the movable display, a rotational movement of the movable display, or any combination thereof; and a controller to control the driving module such that the movable display functions in a first mode of displaying information outside a mobility and a second mode of displaying information inside the mobility.
