Printed Matter Preview for Maximum Reflected Light Brightness
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
In the preview of a printed matter, it is challenging for users to display an image where light reflected by the printed matter appears at maximum brightness or around maximum brightness, especially when the position of the light source or viewpoint can change, making it difficult to accurately represent the metallic brilliance.
Innovation Solution
An image processing system that sets the initial angle and position of the printed matter and viewpoint to ensure maximum brightness of reflected light on the initial screen, using environment images to determine the light source position and adjusting the angle and position accordingly.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If the light source position or viewpoint is changed in the preview environment, then the preview can adapt to different viewing conditions, but it becomes difficult to display the printed matter with maximum brightness of reflected light
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs preliminary calculation to determine the optimal angle and position of the printed matter before display. By pre-calculating the angle that maximizes reflected light brightness based on light source and viewpoint positions, the system ensures maximum brightness is achieved without requiring manual user adjustment, thus resolving the contradiction between adaptability and brightness optimization.
2Illumination intensity
If the user manually adjusts the inclination of the printed matter to achieve maximum brightness, then the brightness can be optimized, but this requires complex user operations and is not always feasible when light source or viewpoint changes
Solution Approach 1:
The system automatically calculates and adjusts the optimal angle and position of the printed matter without requiring user intervention. The calculation unit computes the angle that maximizes reflected light brightness based on the light source and viewpoint positions, and the display control unit automatically sets this angle, enabling the system to serve itself and eliminate complex user operations.
3Device complexity
If the initial screen displays a generic preview without optimized lighting conditions, then the display is simple, but it fails to accurately represent the metallic brilliance of the printed matter
Solution Approach 1:
The system changes the display parameters (angle and position of the printed matter) based on calculated optimal values. By adjusting these parameters to maximize reflected light brightness, the system accurately represents the metallic brilliance of the printed matter on the initial screen, resolving the contradiction between display simplicity and representation accuracy.
