Terminal Device Privacy Mode Automatic Content Hiding
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing terminal devices lack efficient methods for protecting user privacy, requiring users to manually select and hide multimedia content, which is cumbersome and time-consuming, especially when dealing with large volumes of data.
Innovation Solution
A terminal device and method that automatically detects the activation of a privacy mode, determines private multimedia content based on designated content, and hides it, simplifying the process by including all relevant content in a private set without manual selection, using semantic information like objects, scenes, and events.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If users manually select and hide multimedia content for privacy protection, then privacy protection is achieved, but the operation becomes cumbersome and time-consuming
Solution Approach 1:
The terminal device automatically determines and hides private multimedia content without requiring manual user selection. The system analyzes multimedia content, identifies private information, and applies privacy protection automatically, making the system serve itself rather than requiring continuous user intervention.
Solution Approach 2:
The terminal device pre-configures privacy protection settings and automatically applies them when privacy mode is activated. By preparing the privacy protection mechanism in advance and automatically executing it, the system eliminates the need for users to manually select content at the moment of need.
2Reliability
If users manually select each piece of multimedia content for privacy protection, then accurate privacy control is achieved, but the process becomes time-consuming
Solution Approach 1:
The terminal device automatically analyzes multimedia content to identify private information and determines which content should be hidden. This self-service approach maintains accurate privacy control by using automated analysis algorithms while eliminating the time users would spend manually selecting each piece of content.
Solution Approach 2:
The system pre-processes multimedia content to identify private information and prepares privacy protection settings in advance. When privacy mode is activated, the pre-analyzed content is quickly hidden without requiring users to spend time on manual selection during the moment of need.
3Productivity
If automatic privacy protection is implemented, then operational efficiency is improved, but system complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The manual mechanical process of selecting and hiding content is replaced with an automated system that uses algorithms to analyze multimedia content, identify private information, and apply privacy protection. This substitution improves efficiency by eliminating manual operations while the system handles the complexity internally.
Data Source
AI summary
A privacy protection method and a terminal device are provided. The privacy protection method in a terminal device includes receiving a user input of designated multimedia content that is stored in the terminal device, detecting an activation of a privacy mode on the terminal device, determining a set of private multimedia content stored in the terminal device based on the designated multimedia content, and preventing the set of private multimedia content from being displayed on the terminal device.
