Packing Structure with Lenses for VR Viewing
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Conventional paper packaging for portable display devices lacks added value and functional benefits, failing to provide environmental protection and does not meet consumers' evolving needs for visual entertainment, as they require separate virtual reality (VR) devices for immersive experiences.
Innovation Solution
A packing structure comprising a first and second casing with embedded lenses that form a containing space for an electronic device, allowing the device's display to project VR images, enhancing the packaging's value by providing VR entertainment while maintaining environmental sustainability.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If conventional paper packaging is used for portable display devices, then wrapping and product-shipping functions are provided, but added value and functional benefits are low, causing packaging to be discarded easily
Solution Approach 1:
The packaging structure is transformed into a multi-functional system that serves both as protective packaging and as a VR viewing device. The casing structure with integrated lenses allows the packaging to function as a virtual reality viewer for the display device, enabling consumers to experience VR content directly from the packaging without needing separate VR equipment.
2Adaptability or versatility
If VR display technology is implemented through separate devices like HMDs or video glasses, then virtual reality visual entertainment effects are achieved, but consumers have to spend extra money to purchase additional devices
Solution Approach 1:
The VR viewing function is merged with the existing packaging structure. The lenses are integrated directly into the casing, combining the protective packaging function with the VR viewing function into a single unified structure, thereby eliminating the need for separate VR devices.
3Adaptability or versatility
If packaging structure is modified to include VR functionality with lenses, then added value and consumer appeal are enhanced, but device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The packaging structure is transformed into a multi-functional system that serves both as protective packaging and as a VR viewing device. The casing structure with integrated lenses allows the packaging to function as a virtual reality viewer for the display device, enabling consumers to experience VR content directly from the packaging without needing separate VR equipment.
Applied Scientific Principles
This section explains which scientific principles are used to turn an abstract innovation direction into a practical engineering solution.
Function Achieved in This Case
The packing structure enhances consumer appeal by offering VR visual entertainment alongside traditional wrapping and shipping functions, aligning with environmental protection goals by reusing existing packaging components.
Implementation Method 1
two lenses (150) are disposed on the second packing casing (120). An image displayed by a display surface (52) of the electronic device (50) is adapted to be transmitted to outside of the containing space (C) through the two lenses (150), so as to form a virtual reality (VR) image

AI summary
A packing structure including a first packing casing, a second packing casing, and two lenses is provided. The second packing casing is adapted to be combined with the first packing casing detachably, such that a containing space is formed between the first packing casing and the second packing casing. The containing space is adapted to contain an electronic device. The two lenses are disposed on the second packing casing. An image displayed by a display surface of the electronic device is adapted to be transmitted to outside of the containing space through the two lenses, so as to form a virtual reality image.
