Solution Overview

Problem

Mid-range and low-end display devices struggle to provide adequate visibility in dark scenes, requiring manual brightness adjustments that lead to glare issues when exiting such scenes, and users must repeatedly adjust settings.

Innovation Solution

A computer system with a detection unit, power unit, storage unit, and processing unit that utilizes a lookup table to automatically adjust display brightness based on current application scenes, eliminating the need for manual adjustments.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Illumination intensity

If the overall brightness is increased to see objects in dark scenes, then visibility in dark scenes is improved, but glare occurs when viewing in bright scenes and manual adjustment is required

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedisplay brightnessVSAvoidglare
Core Design Contradiction:
Illumination intensityVSObject-affected harmful factors

Solution Approach 1:

The patent implements dynamic brightness adjustment by continuously monitoring the logic current value of the logic unit and automatically adjusting the backlight unit's brightness accordingly. The system transitions from static manual brightness settings to dynamic automatic adjustment based on real-time scene detection, resolving the contradiction between visibility in dark scenes and glare in bright scenes

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

Solution Approach 2:

The patent establishes a feedback loop where the detection unit monitors the logic current value, which reflects the current scene's brightness requirements. This feedback information is used by the processing unit to automatically adjust the backlight brightness, creating a closed-loop control system that adaptively maintains optimal visibility without glare

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

2Ease of operation

If manual brightness adjustment is performed to optimize viewing conditions, then viewing comfort is improved, but adjustment time and user intervention are increased

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveviewing comfortVSAvoidadjustment time
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The patent enables the display device to adjust its own brightness automatically based on the logic current value monitoring. The system performs self-diagnosis and self-adjustment without requiring user intervention, thereby improving viewing comfort while eliminating the time users would spend manually adjusting brightness settings

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

3Illumination intensity

If high brightness or high contrast is maintained for dark scenes, then visibility in dark scenes is improved, but energy consumption increases and automatic adaptation to scene changes is lost

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedisplay brightnessVSAvoidenergy consumption
Core Design Contradiction:
Illumination intensityVSUse of energy by moving object

Solution Approach 1:

The patent implements dynamic brightness adjustment by continuously monitoring the logic current value of the logic unit and automatically adjusting the backlight unit's brightness accordingly. The system transitions from static manual brightness settings to dynamic automatic adjustment based on real-time scene detection, resolving the contradiction between visibility in dark scenes and glare in bright scenes

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

Solution Approach 2:

The patent changes the brightness parameter dynamically based on the detected logic current value. Instead of maintaining a fixed high brightness setting, the system adjusts the brightness parameter in real-time according to the current scene requirements, thereby reducing energy consumption when high brightness is not needed while maintaining visibility when required

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes
