Rotatable Camera Wearable Device for Multi-Angle Shooting
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing wearable devices with camera functions cannot conveniently shoot external scenery and selfies at the same time due to limited camera placement, which restricts shooting at different viewing angles and fails to meet user requirements.
Innovation Solution
A wearable device design where the functional component, such as a camera, is disposed on the watch body and rotatably connected to the dial, allowing for adjustment of the camera's position relative to the dial through a position detection member, enabling shooting at various viewing angles.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If the camera component is fixed at a single position on the wearable device, then the device structure is simple, but the device cannot achieve shooting at different viewing angles
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies the dynamics principle by making the camera assembly rotatable relative to the watch body through a rotating mechanism. The camera can be rotated to different positions (e.g., 0 degrees for external scenery, 180 degrees for selfies) allowing the same physical component to serve multiple shooting purposes. This dynamic positioning resolves the contradiction by enabling multi-angle adaptability without adding multiple fixed camera components.
2Adaptability or versatility
If the camera component is arranged at the upper end of the wearable device for shooting external scenery, then the shooting viewing angle for external scenery is convenient, but it is difficult to shoot a selfie
Solution Approach 1:
The rotating camera assembly allows dynamic repositioning between upper end (for external scenery) and lower end (for selfies). The user can rotate the camera to the appropriate position based on shooting needs, making both external scenery shooting and selfie shooting convenient without compromising either function.
3Adaptability or versatility
If the camera component is arranged at the lower end of the wearable device for shooting selfies, then it is easy to take a selfie, but it is difficult to shoot an external scenery
Solution Approach 1:
The rotatable camera assembly enables the camera to be positioned at the lower end for selfies and rotated to the upper end for external scenery shooting. This dynamic adjustment resolves the contradiction by allowing the same camera to optimally serve both functions at different times.
4Adaptability or versatility
If a single camera is used in the wearable device due to space constraints, then the device structure is compact, but the device cannot achieve multiple functional requirements simultaneously
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies universality by designing a single camera assembly that can perform multiple functions (external scenery shooting, selfie shooting, video recording) through rotational positioning. The same physical camera serves different purposes at different angles, achieving multi-functionality without increasing the number of camera components or occupying additional space.

AI summary
The present invention relates to a wearable device and a display method. The wearable device includes: a dial, where the dial is provided with a receiving groove; a watch body, at least partially arranged in the receiving groove and rotatably connected to the dial, where the watch body is provided with a functional component; and a position detection member, including a first component and a second component, where one of the first component and the second component is arranged on the dial, the other of the first component and the second component is arranged on the watch body, the first component includes a first subcomponent and a second subcomponent, and the first subcomponent and the second subcomponent are spaced from each other in a rotation direction of the watch body; where the position detection member has a first state and a second state, when the position detection member is in the first state, the first subcomponent is opposite to the second component, and when the position detection member is in the second state, the second subcomponent is opposite to the second component.
