Solution Overview

Problem

Motion stabilization in display devices is challenged by motion-induced discomfort and motion sickness, particularly in vehicles, due to mismatches between visual, vestibular, and proprioceptive systems.

Innovation Solution

A computer-implemented method and system for advanced motion stabilization, which includes receiving images for display on a vehicle-associated device, identifying device and vehicle motion data, generating predicted gaze position deviation data using a motion stabilization model framework, and adjusting the position of objects on the screen based on this data to maintain a stable user gaze.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If motion stabilization is implemented using traditional methods, then some motion compensation is achieved, but motion-induced discomfort and motion sickness persist due to mismatches between visual, vestibular, and proprioceptive systems

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvemotion stabilization effectivenessVSAvoidmotion-induced discomfort and motion sickness
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSObject-affected harmful factors

Solution Approach 1:

The patent transforms raw motion data into predicted gaze position deviations by applying multiple transformation parameters including device motion data, vehicle motion data, and physiological parameters. This multi-parameter transformation approach resolves the contradiction by precisely compensating for motion effects while maintaining natural visual perception, thereby reducing motion sickness without sacrificing stabilization effectiveness

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

Solution Approach 2:

The patent introduces an intermediary computational layer that processes the mismatch between visual and vestibular inputs. By calculating predicted gaze position deviations as an intermediate representation and using it to adjust object positions on the display, the system mediates the conflict between motion detection and visual stability, effectively reducing motion-induced discomfort while maintaining reliable motion stabilization

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

2Measurement precision

If multiple motion data inputs are processed to improve gaze prediction accuracy, then motion stabilization precision is enhanced, but computational complexity and processing requirements increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvegaze position prediction accuracyVSAvoidcomputational processing requirements
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent performs preliminary calculations by pre-processing device motion data and vehicle motion data into predicted gaze position deviations before the actual display rendering occurs. This preliminary action allows the system to prepare compensation transformations in advance, achieving high prediction accuracy while managing computational complexity through staged processing rather than real-time complex calculations

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The patent segments the motion stabilization process into distinct computational stages: collecting device motion data, collecting vehicle motion data, calculating predicted gaze position deviations, and adjusting object positions. This segmentation allows each stage to be optimized independently, maintaining high precision gaze prediction while reducing overall computational complexity through modular processing

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation
