Solution Overview

Problem

Conventional display systems for three-dimensional image viewing often require special glasses or complex configurations, and they struggle to adapt dynamically to viewer position and quality of display, leading to suboptimal viewing experiences.

Innovation Solution

A remote control device that determines viewer position and quality of display, using sensors and triangulation techniques to reconfigure adaptable display screens and audio systems, enabling dynamic adjustment of light manipulators, audio settings, and content delivery to optimize the viewing experience for each viewer.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If conventional display systems use special glasses or complex configurations for three-dimensional image viewing, then three-dimensional viewing functionality is achieved, but device complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvethree-dimensional viewing functionalityVSAvoidcomplex configurations
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent extracts the light manipulation function from complex mechanical configurations and implements it through a virtual reality display device that generates three-dimensional images directly through optical rendering, eliminating the need for external special glasses or complex optical configurations

Inventive Principle:
Principle #2Taking out (Extraction)

Solution Approach 2:

The display device is designed to provide both two-dimensional and three-dimensional viewing capabilities through a single unified system, allowing the same display to serve multiple viewing modes without requiring separate complex configurations for each mode

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)

2Adaptability or versatility

If conventional display systems use fixed configurations, then manufacturing is simplified, but adaptability to viewer position deteriorates

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveadaptation to viewer positionVSAvoidfixed configurations
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSEase of manufacture

Solution Approach 1:

The patent implements dynamic adaptation by detecting viewer position and automatically adjusting the three-dimensional image rendering parameters in real-time, allowing the display to adapt to different viewing positions without requiring manual reconfiguration or complex mechanical adjustments

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

Solution Approach 2:

The system incorporates viewer position detection and uses this feedback information to dynamically adjust the optical rendering parameters, creating a closed-loop system that continuously optimizes the three-dimensional viewing experience based on actual viewer position

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

3Manufacturing precision

If conventional display systems do not track viewer position, then device complexity is reduced, but viewing quality deteriorates

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveviewing qualityVSAvoidviewer position tracking
Core Design Contradiction:
Manufacturing precisionVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent replaces complex mechanical tracking systems with electronic and optical sensing methods, using cameras and processors to detect and track viewer position through image analysis and computational algorithms rather than mechanical sensors

Inventive Principle:
Principle #28Mechanics substitution (Replace mechanical system)

AI summary

Remote control devices that support interaction by a viewer with a screen assembly of a display device are provided. The eyes of the viewer have a first position within a premises relative to the screen assembly of the display device. The remote control device has a second position within the premises relative to the screen assembly of the display device. The remote control device includes an input interface that receives viewer input, a communication interface that supports wireless transmissions, and processing circuitry. The processing circuitry participates in a generation of location information relating to the first position of the eyes of the viewer. The processing circuitry causes the communication interface to make at least one wireless transmission relating to the generation of the location information. The processing circuitry, at least in part, causes a reconfiguration of the screen assembly based on the location information.
