Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If a lens array is disposed on the display panel to provide three-dimensional images, then three-dimensional image capability is improved, but resolution deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The optical system is configured to be movable relative to the display panel, allowing dynamic adjustment between different optical path lengths. This enables the display device to switch between 2D and 3D modes, providing three-dimensional image capability without permanently degrading the resolution of two-dimensional images. The movable configuration allows the optical system to be positioned optimally for each mode.
2Adaptability or versatility
If the optical path is adjusted for three-dimensional images, then three-dimensional image quality is improved, but two-dimensional image resolution deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The optical system can be moved to different positions relative to the display panel. In the first position, the optical path length is optimized for high-quality three-dimensional images. In the second position, the optical system is configured to minimize interference with two-dimensional image display, thereby maintaining high resolution. This dynamic repositioning resolves the contradiction between 3D image quality and 2D image resolution.
3Stability of the object's composition
If the optical system is fixed for three-dimensional display, then three-dimensional image stability is improved, but adaptability to different observation distances deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The optical system is configured to be movable, enabling it to adapt to different observation distances by adjusting its position relative to the display panel. When the observer is at a farther distance, the optical system can be positioned to increase the optical path length, thereby extending the focal point. This dynamic adjustment maintains image stability across varying observation distances without requiring a fixed configuration.
4Adaptability or versatility
If the optical path length is increased for distant observers, then adaptability to distant observation is improved, but device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
Instead of implementing a complex fixed optical system designed for distant observers, the patent employs a movable optical system that can be dynamically positioned. This allows the optical path length to be adjusted as needed, providing adaptability to distant observation without requiring a permanently complex device structure. The simplicity of the movable mechanism compared to a fixed complex system resolves this contradiction.
