Position Detecting System Dynamic Image Updates
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing position detecting systems fail to dynamically update images on mobile terminals and external display devices based on received positional information and user operations, limiting their functionality and user interaction.
Innovation Solution
A position detecting system comprising a mobile terminal and a control device that receives positional information from transmitters, processes it to update images on both the terminal and external displays, allowing for dynamic changes in response to user inputs and location-based information.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Measurement precision
If positional information is transmitted from infrared transmitters to determine position, then position detection capability is improved, but the system cannot dynamically update images on mobile terminals or external display devices based on the received positional information
Solution Approach 1:
The mobile terminal and external display devices are designed to perform multiple functions: receiving positional information from infrared transmitters, processing this information, and dynamically updating displayed images accordingly. This multi-functional design resolves the contradiction by enabling the system to both detect position accurately and adaptively update images based on the detected position.
Solution Approach 2:
The system implements a feedback mechanism where positional information received by the mobile terminal is used to dynamically control image updates on both the terminal screen and external display devices. This closed-loop feedback enables the system to continuously adapt the displayed content based on the user's current position, resolving the lack of dynamic update capability.
2Ease of operation
If the system only updates images on the mobile terminal based on positional information, then terminal display functionality is improved, but external display devices cannot be controlled or updated
Solution Approach 1:
The mobile terminal is designed with universal communication capabilities that enable it to control both its own display and external display devices. By incorporating both terminal control and external device control functions, the system resolves the contradiction between improving terminal functionality and enabling external display control.
3Adaptability or versatility
If positional information is received and processed to update images, then user interaction and location-based functionality are improved, but the system lacks the capability to transmit operation information back to control devices
Solution Approach 1:
The mobile terminal integrates multiple communication functions into a single device: receiving positional information from infrared transmitters, processing this information locally, and transmitting operation information back to control devices. This merging of functions resolves the contradiction by enabling bidirectional communication without significantly increasing overall system complexity.

AI summary
A plurality of positional information transmitters, each of which transmits positional information to which a plurality of unit spaces are each uniquely assigned, are disposed on a ceiling. A mobile terminal receives the positional information transmitted from each of the positional information transmitters and changes a terminal-side image in accordance with the received positional information. Furthermore, the mobile terminal transmits to a server current positional information and operation information indicating an instruction inputted by a user. The server changes, in accordance with the current positional information and the operation information received by the mobile terminal, a floor image displayed on a plurality of floor displays disposed on a floor. Thus, it becomes possible to provide a highly interesting and novel position detecting system.
