Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If stacked displays are used to display 3D images, then three-dimensional image display capability is improved, but image quality consistency and depth perception deteriorate due to failure to account for user viewing angles and panel characteristics
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements dynamic image generation that adapts to the user's viewing angle. The processor dynamically adjusts the base image and front image based on real-time viewing angle detection, making the stacked display system responsive to user position rather than static. This resolves the contradiction by enabling consistent image quality across different viewing angles through dynamic adaptation.
Solution Approach 2:
The system employs feedback mechanisms by detecting the user's viewing angle and using this information to adjust the images displayed on the stacked panels. The viewing angle information feeds back into the image generation process, allowing the system to compensate for angular deviations and maintain image quality consistency, thereby resolving the technical contradiction.
2Adaptability or versatility
If multiple display panels are stacked to provide 3D effect, then three-dimensional visualization is improved, but device complexity increases due to multiple panels and optical layers
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments the image rendering process into distinct components: base image generation for the rear panel and front image generation for the front panel. This segmentation allows each panel to be optimized independently while working together to create the 3D effect, managing the complexity of the stacked structure through functional division.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent utilizes the vertical stacking dimension to create 3D visualization by displaying different images on panels at different depths. The base panel displays a base image while the front panel displays a front image, and their combination through the optical layer creates the three-dimensional effect, effectively using the z-dimension (depth) to achieve 3D visualization.
3Manufacturing precision
If base image and front image are generated using AI models, then image quality and depth perception are improved, but processing complexity and computational requirements increase
Solution Approach 1:
The patent employs pre-trained AI models for base image and front image generation. These models are trained in advance on large datasets of images and viewing angle information, allowing them to quickly generate high-quality images during operation. The preliminary training phase separates the computationally intensive learning process from the real-time operation, reducing processing complexity during actual use while maintaining high image quality.
