Automatic Stereoscopic Protocol Negotiation for 3D Displays
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing information handling systems require manual negotiation of stereoscopic formats, which can lead to degraded resolution and confusion for users, detracting from the audiovisual experience when presenting stereoscopic images.
Innovation Solution
A system and method that automatically negotiate stereoscopic protocols between the information handling system and content source using a display protocol negotiator and content protocol negotiator, embedding stereoscopic formatting information to select the optimal protocol for rendering three-dimensional images.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If manual negotiation of stereoscopic formats is used, then users have control over format selection, but the process becomes confusing and time-consuming, detracting from the audiovisual experience
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs automatic protocol negotiation between the information handling system and content source without requiring user intervention. The display protocol negotiator automatically selects and configures the optimal stereoscopic format based on device capabilities and content requirements, eliminating manual user configuration while maintaining optimal performance
Solution Approach 2:
The system pre-configures supported stereoscopic protocols and formats in advance, storing capability information that enables rapid automatic negotiation. By having protocol support information readily available before content playback, the system can quickly determine the optimal format without real-time manual intervention
2Manufacturing precision
If manual selection of stereoscopic format is performed, then format matching can be attempted, but the resolution is often degraded because an exact match is difficult to achieve
Solution Approach 1:
The automatic negotiation system uses feedback from device capability detection and content protocol identification to select the optimal stereoscopic format. The system continuously monitors protocol support information and content requirements, using this feedback to automatically configure the best matching format that maintains maximum image quality without manual trial-and-error
Solution Approach 2:
The system dynamically adjusts stereoscopic format parameters based on automatic negotiation between device capabilities and content requirements. By changing protocol parameters automatically rather than relying on fixed manual selections, the system optimizes resolution and quality for each specific content-device combination
3Adaptability or versatility
If multiple stereoscopic protocols are supported, then the system gains flexibility in presenting 3D content, but the complexity of protocol negotiation increases
Solution Approach 1:
The display protocol negotiator acts as an intermediary layer between the content source and the display device. This mediator automatically manages the complexity of multiple protocol negotiations by centralizing the negotiation logic, simplifying the interface presented to users while supporting multiple stereoscopic formats through a unified automatic negotiation mechanism
Data Source
AI summary
Three dimensional images are presented at an information handling system display using a communication protocol that the information handling system negotiates with a content source. Negotiation of a stereoscopic protocol supported by the information handling system from stereoscopic protocols available from the content source allows selection of one or more stereoscopic protocols that best fit content at the information handling system, such as based upon the resolution used to present images at the information handling system display.
