Rotating Color Calibration Module for Screen Edge Integration
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Conventional color calibrators require complex installation procedures and are prone to falling off or being lost due to their external connection design, which complicates the color calibration process for electronic devices.
Innovation Solution
A color calibration module with a base detachably disposed on the edge of a screen, featuring a rotatable body with a color calibration detecting head, which can be driven by a motor or manually adjusted to perform calibration without interfering with the screen's display, and includes additional detection elements for ambient light and user presence.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If an external color calibrator is connected through a connecting wire, then color calibration can be performed, but the installation procedure becomes complex and the calibrator is prone to falling off or being lost
Solution Approach 1:
The patent integrates the color calibration function into the electronic device itself by providing a color calibration module that is mounted on the screen bezel. The module includes a color calibration detecting head that can be positioned close to the screen surface, eliminating the need for external connecting wires and separate calibrator devices. This merging of functions resolves the contradiction by making the calibration process intrinsic to the device structure.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent introduces a rotating shaft as an intermediary mechanism that enables the color calibration detecting head to move between a storage position (away from the screen) and a detection position (close to the screen surface). This intermediary structure allows the system to achieve both stable integration and functional accessibility without requiring external connections or complex installation procedures.
2Measurement precision
If the color calibration module is positioned close to the screen for calibration, then calibration accuracy is improved, but the module may interfere with the displayed image
Solution Approach 1:
The patent employs a rotating shaft mechanism that enables the color calibration detecting head to dynamically change its position between a storage position (retracted away from the screen) and a detection position (extended close to the screen). This dynamic positioning system resolves the contradiction by allowing the module to achieve high calibration accuracy when needed while automatically retracting to avoid interfering with the displayed image during normal operation.
Solution Approach 2:
The color calibration module is designed as a separate, detachable component mounted on the screen bezel, with the detecting head positioned on an extension portion that can be rotated independently. This segmentation allows the calibration function to be spatially separated from the display area during operation, eliminating image interference while maintaining calibration precision when the detecting head is positioned close to the screen surface.
3Ease of operation
If the color calibration detecting head is fixed in position, then the structure is simple, but the module cannot be accommodated at the screen edge without interfering with the display
Solution Approach 1:
The patent introduces a rotating shaft mechanism that enables the extension portion carrying the color calibration detecting head to rotate between a storage position (retracted along the bezel edge) and a detection position (extended toward the screen surface). This dynamic structure resolves the contradiction by allowing the module to be accommodated at the screen edge without interfering with the display during normal operation, while enabling easy access to the screen surface when calibration is needed.
Solution Approach 2:
The color calibration detecting head is positioned on an extension portion that rotates in a dimension perpendicular to the screen surface, allowing it to move between a retracted position along the bezel edge and an extended position close to the display area. This dimensional movement resolves the contradiction by accommodating the module at the screen edge without interfering with the display, while enabling easy positioning for calibration operations.
