Transparent Display Object Selection via Multi-Input Intermediary
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current transparent display apparatuses lack an efficient method for selecting objects from multiple options, which hinders user interaction and precision in device operations.
Innovation Solution
A transparent display apparatus that detects user intentions through various means such as gaze direction, touch inputs, voice recognition, and machine-to-machine communication to select and display information about the intended object, utilizing infrared, ultrasonic, and light-emitting devices for accurate object identification and selection.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Illumination intensity
If a transparent display apparatus is used to display information while maintaining transparency, then visibility of objects through the display is improved, but the ability to accurately select objects from multiple options deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The patent introduces an intermediary object selection unit that mediates between the transparent display and the user. This unit receives multiple input signals (gaze direction, touch input, voice recognition, M2M communication) and processes them to accurately identify the intended object, thereby resolving the conflict between maintaining display transparency and achieving precise object selection.
Solution Approach 2:
The object selection unit is designed with multi-functionality, integrating multiple detection methods (gaze direction detection, touch input detection, voice recognition, M2M communication) into a single system. This allows the transparent display apparatus to accurately select objects while maintaining its transparency, as the multi-functional unit can process various types of user inputs to determine object selection.
2Measurement precision
If multiple methods for object selection are integrated, then object selection accuracy is improved, but device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent merges multiple object selection methods (gaze direction detection, touch input detection, voice recognition, M2M communication) into a single integrated object selection unit. This consolidation allows the system to maintain high object selection accuracy through multiple input channels while reducing overall system complexity by centralizing the selection logic in one module rather than having separate systems for each input type.
