OS-Aware Display Sharing to Prevent Unintended Content Leakage

Resolve Bottlenecks,
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions

Solution Overview

Problem

Existing display systems risk unintentional leakage of sensitive display content when shared between devices due to lack of operating system-specific display format configuration.

Innovation Solution

A display system that determines the operating system type of a first device and configures a selectable display format with a transmitter, allowing users to select and control the display mode based on the OS type, preventing unintended content sharing.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Ease of operation

If display content is automatically shared between devices when connected, then convenience of operation is improved, but security against unintentional content leakage deteriorates

Engineering Contradiction:

Improveconvenience of display sharingVSAvoidunintentional content leakage

Core Design Contradiction:

Ease of operationVSObject-affected harmful factors

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs preliminary actions by detecting OS type and pre-configuring appropriate display formats before actual display sharing occurs. This ensures that security settings are established in advance, preventing unintentional leakage while maintaining ease of operation.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The system changes display format parameters based on detected OS type. By adjusting display format settings according to the specific operating system, the system enables convenient sharing while implementing OS-appropriate security measures to prevent unintended content exposure.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #35Parameter changes

2Device complexity

If display format is fixed for all operating systems, then device complexity is reduced, but adaptability to different operating systems deteriorates

Engineering Contradiction:

Improvedisplay configuration complexityVSAvoidOS-specific display compatibility

Core Design Contradiction:

Device complexityVSAdaptability or versatility

Solution Approach 1:

The transmitter changes display format parameters based on the detected operating system type. This allows the system to maintain low complexity by automatically adapting to different OSes rather than requiring manual configuration for each platform.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #35Parameter changes

Solution Approach 2:

The display system achieves universality by supporting multiple operating systems through automatic detection and adaptation. A single device can work with different OS types without requiring separate configuration modes, maintaining simplicity while ensuring broad compatibility.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)

AI summary

A display system includes a determination processing unit that determines a type of an operating system installed in a user terminal when a transmitter is connected to the user terminal, and a configuration processing unit that configures a display format of each of the user terminal and a display in a selectable state based on the type of the operating system.
