Screen Terminal Age Recognition for Child Posture and Distance Control
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing methods for managing screen terminals lack the ability to automatically and intelligently supervise children's usage, particularly their sitting posture and distance, leading to potential vision decline and unhealthy usage habits, requiring manual operation and remote camera control.
Innovation Solution
A method and system that collect images, perform face detection, extract feature values, match with pre-trained datasets, determine abnormal posture and distance conditions, and generate control signals to adjust screen terminal usage, such as reducing volume, turning off, or cutting power, based on set thresholds.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Extent of automation
If manual management methods (application software or voice control) are used to manage screen terminals, then device control capability is maintained, but automation level and supervisory function are insufficient
Solution Approach 1:
The system enables self-service by automatically detecting children's presence through face recognition, monitoring posture and distance in real-time, and autonomously controlling screen terminal operations without requiring manual parent intervention. The system serves itself by integrating image collection, analysis, and control functions into an automated closed-loop system.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent replaces manual mechanical operations (parents physically managing devices or remotely controlling cameras) with automated image processing and computer vision systems. Face detection, bone position analysis, and automated control signals substitute for manual device handling and remote camera operation.
2Reliability
If remote camera control is used to check children's screen terminal usage, then supervisory capability is provided, but operation complexity and time consumption increase
Solution Approach 1:
The system provides continuous real-time monitoring of children's screen terminal usage through persistent image collection and analysis. Unlike periodic remote camera checks, the system continuously tracks posture and distance, ensuring uninterrupted supervisory capability that immediately detects and responds to abnormal conditions.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent introduces an intermediary automated image processing system that bridges parents and children's screen usage. Instead of parents directly controlling remote cameras, the system automatically analyzes images and generates control signals, serving as an intelligent mediator that eliminates manual remote operation steps.
3Ease of operation
If device management software is activated to manage screen terminals, then control function is achieved, but system complexity and operational burden increase
Solution Approach 1:
The system achieves multi-functionality by integrating face detection, age identification, posture analysis, distance measurement, and screen terminal control into a single unified system. This eliminates the need for separate device management software and remote camera controls, reducing overall system complexity while maintaining comprehensive control functions.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent merges previously separate functions (face recognition, posture monitoring, and device control) into an integrated system. The image processing unit and control unit work together as a combined system, eliminating the need for separate management software and reducing operational burden on parents.

AI summary
A method and a system for intelligently controlling children's usage of a screen terminal are provided in this disclosure, which relate to the technical field of intelligent home terminals. When children use the screen terminal, children's age can be automatically and intelligently identified, real-time intelligent supervision on children's sitting posture, distance and other aspects can be conducted according to different children's ages, so as to intelligently control on and off duration of the screen terminal, so as to guide the children to use the screen terminal device healthily. Compared with prior art schemes, in the disclosure, management of the screen terminal device can be realized without manual operation, reducing trouble from manual equipment management, further realizing specific control of children's usage of the screen terminal by age, increasing intelligence degree, and with advantage of being used in multiple scenes.
