Terminal Screen-Off to On Transition Information Card Display
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Users' fragmented spare time on terminal equipment is not effectively utilized in existing applications, as there is no mechanism to provide informative content during the transition from screen-off to screen-on states.
Innovation Solution
A method and device that detect the transition from screen-off to screen-on states on terminal equipment and display informative information cards, obtained from a network, which are smaller in size than the screen, to engage users during this time.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Use of energy by moving object
If the display screen remains in screen-off state to save energy, then energy consumption is reduced, but users cannot access informative content during fragmented spare time
Solution Approach 1:
The system prepares information cards in advance and stores them locally before the screen-off state. When the screen transitions to screen-on state, these pre-prepared cards are immediately displayed without requiring real-time network access, thus utilizing fragmented spare time while maintaining energy efficiency.
Solution Approach 2:
Information cards serve as an intermediary between the network and the user. Instead of directly accessing network content which requires active network connection and energy, pre-fetched information cards provide indirect access to informative content that can be displayed during low-power states.
2Loss of information
If information cards are displayed on the display screen, then informative content is provided to users, but the display area available for other content is reduced
Solution Approach 1:
The display screen is segmented into multiple regions: the information card occupies a portion of the screen (e.g., as a popup or overlay), while the remaining area continues to display other content or returns to the previous screen state. This allows simultaneous presentation of informative content and other interface elements without completely blocking the display area.
Solution Approach 2:
The information card is displayed as an overlay layer on top of the existing screen content, adding a new dimension (z-axis/layering) rather than replacing the entire display. This allows information delivery without permanently reducing the base display area, as users can dismiss or interact with the card to return to full-screen mode.

AI summary
The present application provides a method for displaying information, and a terminal equipment. The method for displaying information comprises: detecting whether a display screen of a terminal equipment switches from a screen-off state to a screen-on state when the display screen is in the screen-off state; displaying at least one information card on the display screen after it is detected that the display screen switches from the screen-off state to the screen-on state, wherein, the at least one information card includes information for informative purpose obtained from a network side, and the size of the at least one information card is smaller than that of the display screen. In the present solution, information for informative purpose is pushed to a user in the form of cards when a screen switches from a screen-off to a screen-on, such that the user can browse the information for informative purpose during the fragmented spare time when the screen switches between the screen-on and the screen-off, thereby improving the usage of fragmented spare time of users.
