Solution Overview

Problem

Existing display technologies fail to maximize the display of mowing operation areas with various shapes, as they typically rely on simple enlargement methods that do not accommodate non-similar shapes effectively.

Innovation Solution

A method and system that acquire mowing operation data, determine non-overlapping reference operation areas, merge them into a convex polygon, and then enclose this with a rectangular area to maximize display based on the display apparatus' window size.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Ease of manufacture

If simple enlargement method is used to display target graphic, then display process is simple, but display effect is poor and cannot maximize display of images of various shapes

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedisplay process simplicityVSAvoiddisplay effectiveness
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of manufactureVSProductivity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent segments the target graphic into multiple reference operation areas based on shape characteristics. By dividing the graphic into distinct regions with different shapes, the system can apply different enlargement strategies to each segment, thereby maximizing the display effectiveness of each shape while maintaining overall display quality.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The patent applies local quality by treating different reference operation areas with different enlargement ratios. Each area is enlarged according to its specific shape characteristics and the display window size, allowing optimal display of each local region rather than applying a uniform enlargement to the entire graphic.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #3Local quality

2Device complexity

If uniform enlargement is applied to target graphic, then implementation is simple, but various shaped images cannot be fully displayed

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveprocessing complexityVSAvoidshape adaptability
Core Design Contradiction:
Device complexityVSAdaptability or versatility

Solution Approach 1:

The patent introduces dynamic adjustment by calculating different enlargement ratios for different reference operation areas based on the display window size and shape characteristics. The system dynamically determines the optimal enlargement ratio for each area, allowing the display to adapt to various shapes while maintaining reasonable processing complexity through automated calculations.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

Solution Approach 2:

The patent changes the enlargement ratio parameter for different reference operation areas. By adjusting this parameter based on the specific shape and size of each area, the system achieves versatile display capability for various shapes while keeping the processing method systematic and manageable.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes
