Solution Overview

Problem

Conventional display devices do not provide a convenient operation method for users, as stereoscopic displays are primarily used for viewing purposes and lack functionality for improving operational convenience.

Innovation Solution

A display device that includes a three-dimensional display unit for both eyes, a detection unit to recognize the user's body movements, and a control unit to change virtual objects based on these movements, enabling intuitive and convenient interaction, such as ordering products by simulating real-world actions.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Ease of operation

If a conventional display device uses stereoscopic display for viewing purposes, then the user can view three-dimensional images, but the operation convenience is not improved

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveoperation convenienceVSAvoidfunctionality
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSAdaptability or versatility

Solution Approach 1:

The display device integrates multiple functions including stereoscopic display, body movement detection, and various interaction modes (gaze detection, touch input, voice recognition) into a single system. This allows the device to serve both viewing purposes and operational control purposes, improving ease of operation while maintaining adaptability across different use cases

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)

2Ease of operation

If the display device adds detection and control units for body movement recognition, then the operation convenience is improved, but the device complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveintuitive interactionVSAvoidsystem complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent replaces traditional mechanical or manual interaction mechanisms (buttons, switches, keyboards) with body movement detection and recognition systems. This substitution enables more intuitive interaction where users can operate the device through natural gestures and movements, improving ease of operation while the complexity is managed through software-based recognition algorithms

Inventive Principle:
Principle #28Mechanics substitution (Replace mechanical system)

3Productivity

If the display device enables ordering products through body movement, then the operational efficiency is improved, but the detection precision requirements increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveoperational efficiencyVSAvoidbody movement detection precision
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSMeasurement precision

Solution Approach 1:

The system implements feedback mechanisms where the detection unit monitors body movements, the control unit interprets these movements to determine user intent, and the system responds by displaying or executing the corresponding action (such as product ordering). This closed-loop feedback system allows the device to adapt to user movements in real-time, improving operational efficiency while managing detection precision requirements through continuous adjustment and confirmation

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback
