Solution Overview

Problem

Intelligent terminals face inefficiencies in displaying images due to the large volume of display effect data required for frequent adjustments, which is not flexible and consumes significant storage and processing capacity.

Innovation Solution

An image display method that allows terminals to receive and determine display effect data on demand, either by directly receiving the data or using an index to look up the necessary data, enabling flexible configuration and efficient adjustment of display effects.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If display effect data is copied to the intelligent terminal for frequent adjustment, then the display effect can be optimized, but the storage and processing capacity of the terminal is consumed and the efficiency is low

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedisplay effect adjustment flexibilityVSAvoidstorage capacity consumption
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSQuantity of substance

Solution Approach 1:

The patent extracts the display effect data from the terminal device and stores it externally on the computer device. Only necessary data (effect names or indexes) is kept at the terminal, while the complete display effect data library is maintained externally, reducing terminal storage burden while preserving full adjustment capability.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #2Taking out (Extraction)

Solution Approach 2:

The patent introduces a network communication mechanism as an intermediary between the terminal and computer device. The terminal sends effect name requests and receives corresponding display effect data through network transmission, enabling flexible adjustment without direct storage of large data volumes at the terminal.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

2Adaptability or versatility

If display effect data is copied to the intelligent terminal for frequent adjustment, then the display effect can be optimized, but the processing capacity of the terminal is consumed

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedisplay effect adjustment flexibilityVSAvoidprocessing efficiency
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSProductivity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent extracts the computationally intensive display effect data processing from the terminal device and performs it externally on the computer device. The terminal only handles lightweight operations (sending effect names, receiving results), while the heavy data processing occurs externally, improving terminal processing efficiency.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #2Taking out (Extraction)

Solution Approach 2:

The network communication mechanism serves as an intermediary that handles the data transmission and processing coordination. The terminal communicates effect requirements through the network, and the external system processes and returns results, reducing the terminal's processing burden while maintaining adjustment flexibility.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

3Adaptability or versatility

If new display effect data is copied to change display effects, then the display effect can be updated, but the operation is not flexible

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedisplay effect varietyVSAvoidoperation flexibility
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The patent extracts the complete display effect data library from the terminal and stores it externally. The terminal only keeps a local cache or index of effect names, allowing users to select from various effects without copying large data volumes. This enables flexible effect switching through simple data requests rather than repeated copying operations.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #2Taking out (Extraction)

AI summary

An image display method, an image display apparatus, an electronic device and a computer readable storage medium are provided. The image display method includes the following steps. A computer device sends a first display request to a terminal device, where the first display request is associated with display effect data. The terminal device receives the first display request from the computer device. The terminal device determines the display effect data according to the first display request. The terminal device sends a first display request acknowledgement message to the computer device, where the first display request acknowledgement message indicates that the terminal device successfully determines the display effect data. The terminal device displays an image according to the display effect data.
