Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing technologies fail to provide intuitive and synergistic interaction between electronic apparatuses, particularly in allowing users to perceive information from multiple devices in a private and non-intrusive manner, especially when using see-through displays.
Innovation Solution
A method and system that utilize camera visual information and visual identification information to determine the presence and orientation of a separate apparatus through a see-through display, causing the display of program interaction information that corresponds with the apparatus, and terminating this display when the apparatus is no longer perceivable.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If information is displayed on a see-through display to enable interaction between electronic apparatuses, then the intuitiveness and synergy of interaction is improved, but the privacy of information perception deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies local quality by displaying information at specific locations on the see-through display that correspond to the spatial position of the target apparatus. Information is localized to match the visual field position, allowing users to perceive information in context while maintaining privacy through selective visibility based on apparatus orientation and position.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent uses the see-through display as an intermediary medium that overlays information between the user and the physical apparatus. The display mediates the interaction by presenting information that corresponds to the spatial and orientational relationship between the user, the apparatus, and the target object, enabling intuitive interaction while controlling information visibility.
2Adaptability or versatility
If program interaction information is displayed to correspond with the separate apparatus, then the adaptability and user experience is improved, but the device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies dynamics by making the displayed information adaptive to the changing orientation and position of the separate apparatus. As the apparatus rotates or moves, the information display dynamically adjusts its position, orientation, and content to maintain correspondence with the apparatus's spatial relationship to the user and target object.
Solution Approach 2:
The system uses feedback from sensors that detect the orientation and position of the separate apparatus to control the display of program interaction information. The display content and positioning are continuously adjusted based on feedback about apparatus orientation, enabling adaptive interaction while managing complexity through sensor-driven automation.

AI summary
A method comprising receiving visual identification information from a separate apparatus, identifying the separate apparatus based, at least in part, on camera visual information and the visual identification information, determining that the separate apparatus is perceivable through a see through display, and causing display of program interaction information on the see through display such that the program interaction information corresponds with at least part of the separate apparatus viewable through the see through display based, at least in part, on the identification of the separate apparatus is disclosed.
