Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing under-screen cameras in display devices have fixed positions, limiting their imaging range and inability to follow user movements in real time, resulting in poor user experience.
Innovation Solution
A display device with a movable imaging element driven by a mechanism within an orthographic projection range of the imaging area, allowing for adjustable imaging range and improved user experience.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If the under-screen camera is fixed at a predetermined position, then the camera structure is simple and stable, but the imaging range is limited and cannot follow user movements in real time
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies the dynamics principle by transforming the fixed camera structure into a movable one. The imaging element is mounted on a movable platform that can dynamically adjust its position within the display area, allowing the camera to follow user movements and expand the imaging range while maintaining structural simplicity through controlled motion rather than complex multi-position configurations
2Area of stationary object
If the under-screen camera is fixed at a predetermined position, then the device structure is simple, but the camera cannot capture images beyond the predetermined imaging range
Solution Approach 1:
The imaging element is positioned on a movable platform that can dynamically adjust its location within the display area, enabling real-time tracking of user movements and expanding the effective imaging area beyond what a fixed position could achieve
3Adaptability or versatility
If the imaging element is made movable within the display area, then the field of view is widened and user experience is improved, but the device structure becomes more complex
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements a movable imaging element on a platform that can dynamically reposition within the display area, significantly widening the field of view and enabling real-time user tracking. The driving mechanism, while adding some complexity, uses a straightforward motorized system with positioning control to achieve smooth, coordinated movement that enhances user experience without creating excessive mechanical complexity
Solution Approach 2:
The movable platform serves multiple functions: it positions the imaging element for optimal capture, enables real-time user tracking, and can be controlled to follow user movements automatically. This multi-functionality justifies the added complexity by consolidating positioning, tracking, and following capabilities into a single integrated system

AI summary
Disclosed is a display device. The display device includes a display panel having an imaging area and a display area, wherein at least a portion of the display area surrounds the imaging area; and an imaging module located on a non-display side of the display panel and including an imaging element and a driving mechanism, wherein the driving mechanism drives the imaging element to move within an orthographic projection range of the imaging area. The display device of the present disclosure can address the problem that the imaging element is fixedly mounted in a position and the imaging range thereof is not adjustable.
