Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current vehicle display systems for providing a rearward view lack flexibility in adjusting the position and scale of the image data displayed, limiting user interaction and customization.
Innovation Solution
A display system for vehicles equipped with a display device, sensors, and a controller that captures image data and adjusts the position and scale of the desired view in response to user inputs, allowing for customizable display of rearward views using an array of sensors and an imager.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If a fixed display system is used for rearward view, then the device complexity is reduced, but the adaptability and user interaction flexibility deteriorate
Solution Approach 1:
The display system transitions from a fixed, static configuration to a dynamic one where the displayed view can be adjusted in real-time. The controller modifies the position and scale of the rearward view based on sensor inputs, allowing the display to adapt to different user preferences and viewing conditions without requiring multiple fixed display units.
Solution Approach 2:
The display device integrates multiple functions into a single system: it displays the rearward view, responds to various sensor inputs (proximity, touch, gesture), and adjusts display parameters (position, scale) based on different interaction modes. This multi-functionality increases adaptability while managing complexity through a unified control architecture.
2Ease of operation
If sensor input processing is added to adjust display parameters, then user interaction capability is improved, but the device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The display system automatically adjusts its parameters based on sensor inputs without requiring manual configuration or complex user setup. The controller processes sensor data and autonomously modifies the display position and scale, making the system self-adjusting and easier to operate while keeping the control logic integrated and manageable.
Solution Approach 2:
The system implements a feedback loop where sensors continuously monitor user presence, proximity, or gestures, and the controller uses this feedback to dynamically adjust the display parameters. This closed-loop control improves ease of operation by responding to user needs in real-time while maintaining manageable complexity through systematic feedback processing.
3Measurement precision
If multiple sensor arrays are integrated for precise control, then measurement precision is improved, but device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The sensor system is divided into multiple independent sensor arrays positioned at different locations on the display device. Each array detects specific input types (proximity, touch, gesture) and the controller processes these segmented inputs to determine the desired display adjustments. This segmentation improves measurement precision by capturing spatial information from multiple points while managing complexity through modular sensor integration.
