Solution Overview

Problem

Current screen projection methods often interfere with the content already displayed on a large screen, as they either fully cover or inadequately integrate projected content, lacking user control over display regions.

Innovation Solution

A method and apparatus for screen projection that allows the receiver to display projected content as a window above existing content, with user-controlled region switching using gestures, voice commands, or mode switching controls, minimizing interference and optimizing display impact.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Quantity of substance

If the large screen takes the entire screen to display the projected content, then the projected content is fully displayed, but the existing content on the large screen is completely covered and lost

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveprojected content display areaVSAvoidexisting content visibility
Core Design Contradiction:
Quantity of substanceVSLoss of information

Solution Approach 1:

The patent divides the display screen into multiple regions: a first region for displaying the projected content and a second region for displaying the existing content. This segmentation allows both the projected content and existing content to be displayed simultaneously without one completely covering the other, resolving the contradiction between maximizing projected content display area and preserving existing content visibility.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

2Loss of information

If the projected content is displayed as a window above existing content, then the existing content remains visible, but the projected content display area is reduced

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveexisting content visibilityVSAvoidprojected content display area
Core Design Contradiction:
Loss of informationVSQuantity of substance

Solution Approach 1:

The patent provides dynamic switching between different display modes: window mode (where projected content is displayed in a window above existing content) and region mode (where projected content is displayed in a dedicated first region). Users can switch between these modes based on their needs, allowing the system to adaptively balance between existing content visibility and projected content display area.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

3Ease of operation

If the user wants to switch display regions, then user control is enhanced, but the operation complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedisplay region controlVSAvoidcontrol mechanism
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent implements self-service mechanisms for display region switching through gesture recognition and voice commands. The system automatically detects user gestures (such as sliding gestures) or voice instructions and switches between display modes without requiring complex manual controls or additional hardware interfaces, thereby enhancing ease of operation while maintaining simple system architecture.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

AI summary

Disclosed are a screen-projection content display method and apparatus, and a terminal and a storage medium, which belong to the technical field of computers. In the present application, a screen-projection receiver first displays screen-projection content in a window and is then instructed to display the screen-projection content in a designated area, wherein the designated area and the window are different areas; and upon receiving content sent by a screen-projection initiator, the screen-projection receiver can perform display in such a way that the currently displayed content is less influenced, thereby optimizing the display effect of the screen-projection content.
