Remote Interface Display Occlusion for Privacy-Safe Device Control
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current methods for remote device control result in privacy issues as sensitive information like account login and password input are displayed on the controlled device's interface, leading to potential information leakage.
Innovation Solution
A method and system for remotely controlling interface display that detects user operations to occlude sensitive areas on the controlled device's display, sending occlusion instructions based on detected area information to prevent information exposure.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If remote control connection is established to enable assistance operations, then operational capability is improved, but information security deteriorates due to privacy area exposure
Solution Approach 1:
The display interface is segmented into multiple areas including privacy areas and non-privacy areas. The system separately manages display content for different regions, allowing remote control functionality while protecting sensitive information in designated privacy zones through independent control mechanisms.
Solution Approach 2:
Different display areas are assigned different quality attributes - privacy areas are protected with occlusion or masking while non-privacy areas maintain normal visibility. This local differentiation allows the system to provide remote assistance where needed while preserving security in sensitive regions.
2Measurement precision
If display interface is fully visible for remote control, then control precision is improved, but privacy protection deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
Privacy areas are pre-designated and protected before remote control operations begin. The system establishes occlusion mechanisms in advance for sensitive regions, ensuring that even when the display interface is visible for control purposes, privacy information is already protected from exposure.
Solution Approach 2:
An intermediary mechanism (occlusion layer or masking system) is introduced between the display interface and the remote user's view. This intermediary allows control precision to be maintained by keeping the interface visible to the controlled user while preventing privacy information from reaching the remote user.
3Reliability
If occlusion processing is applied to privacy areas, then information security is improved, but display completeness deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The display is segmented into privacy and non-privacy areas, allowing occlusion processing to be applied selectively only to privacy areas. This segmentation ensures that information security is improved in sensitive regions while display completeness is maintained in non-sensitive regions.
Solution Approach 2:
Occlusion processing is applied locally only to designated privacy areas rather than globally across the entire display. This local application maintains information security where needed while preserving display completeness and functionality in areas where occlusion is not required.

AI summary
A method and a system for remotely controlling interface display, a device, and a storage medium. The method includes steps of: detecting a first operation based on a first display window displayed in a first device, where the first display window displays a display interface of a second device, and the first operation is used to indicate an operation of controlling the second device to perform an occlusion on an area to be occluded in the display interface of the second device; determining area information of the area based on the first operation; and sending an occlusion instruction to the second device based on the area information, where the occlusion instruction is used to instruct the second device to perform an occlusion processing on the area based on the area information.
