In-Vehicle Display Position Control for Moving Steering Wheels
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing in-vehicle display technologies fail to effectively transmit clearer information to passengers due to the lack of dynamic adjustment of display positions based on the movement of steering wheels and portable terminals, especially in scenarios involving navigation and autonomous driving.
Innovation Solution
An apparatus and method that utilize an input part to receive position information of in-vehicle devices, a memory to store a program for display position control, and a processor to adjust the display positions of information on vehicle displays according to the received information, ensuring that content is dynamically repositioned based on the movement of steering wheels and portable terminals, even during autonomous driving.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If display positions are fixed on vehicle displays, then the display system is simple and stable, but information cannot be clearly transmitted to passengers when steering wheels or portable terminals move
Solution Approach 1:
The display position is changed from fixed to dynamic, automatically adjusting according to the detected position of the portable terminal or steering wheel. This allows the display to adapt to moving components while maintaining clear information transmission without requiring complex manual repositioning mechanisms.
Solution Approach 2:
The system continuously detects the position of the portable terminal or steering wheel and uses this feedback to automatically adjust the display position. This closed-loop control ensures that information remains clearly visible regardless of component movement, resolving the contradiction between reliability and complexity.
2Loss of information
If display positions are dynamically adjusted based on device movement, then information transmission clarity is improved, but the system complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The display system automatically adjusts its own position based on detected changes in the portable terminal or steering wheel position, without requiring external manual intervention. This self-adjusting mechanism improves information clarity while minimizing the need for complex external control systems.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent replaces complex mechanical adjustment mechanisms with an electronic/digital solution that uses sensors to detect position and software to control display repositioning. This substitution reduces mechanical complexity while achieving the desired information transmission clarity.
3Adaptability or versatility
If navigation display region is fixed, then the navigation system is stable, but content information cannot be displayed when portable terminal moves to navigation region
Solution Approach 1:
The display screen is divided into multiple regions, with the navigation region remaining fixed and stable while other content regions can be dynamically adjusted. This segmentation allows navigation information to maintain its stable fixed position while other content adapts to portable terminal movement, resolving the contradiction between adaptability and reliability.
Solution Approach 2:
Different regions of the display have different properties: the navigation region maintains fixed stability while other regions exhibit dynamic adaptability. This local differentiation allows each region to optimize its behavior for its specific function, with navigation remaining stable and content areas adapting to device movement.
