Vehicle Interior Image Generation for Online Conference Participant Positioning
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing conference systems fail to effectively communicate the presence and roles of participants within a moving vehicle, such as driver or passenger, to other participants outside the vehicle, affecting communication quality in online conferences.
Innovation Solution
A conference support system that includes a detection unit to identify participants within a moving object, a generation unit to create an interior image showing occupants' positions, and a transmission unit to share this image with other participants, enabling them to recognize the occupants' presence and roles.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Measurement precision
If a video conference system for vehicles is used to recognize current positions of conference participants, then the ability to identify participant positions is improved, but the ability to show interior space layout and multiple occupants simultaneously is insufficient
Solution Approach 1:
The patent combines multiple functions into a unified interior image display system. The generation unit integrates occupant position information, interior space layout, and visual representation into a single composite image that simultaneously shows both the spatial arrangement and the occupants themselves, resolving the contradiction between simple position recognition and comprehensive interior visualization.
Solution Approach 2:
The interior image serves multiple functions: it displays the interior space layout, marks occupant positions, identifies individual occupants through images or icons, and provides contextual information about the vehicle. This multi-functional approach eliminates the need for separate systems for each function, addressing the complexity issue while maintaining comprehensive capabilities.
2Ease of operation
If only simple position information is transmitted to other vehicles, then transmission simplicity is maintained, but communication quality and participant recognition are insufficient
Solution Approach 1:
The system creates a visual copy or representation of the interior space with occupants superimposed on it. Instead of transmitting raw position data that loses contextual information, the system generates and transmits a synthesized interior image that preserves and enhances the visual representation of occupants, their positions, and the space layout, thereby preventing information loss while maintaining transmission efficiency.
3Loss of information
If the system displays detailed interior images with multiple occupants, then communication quality is improved, but the system complexity and processing requirements increase
Solution Approach 1:
The generation unit acts as an intermediary between the raw data from multiple sources (occupant positions, interior space information, occupant images) and the final displayed interior image. This intermediary component synthesizes and integrates the various data elements into a unified visual representation, managing the complexity of processing and presentation while ensuring high communication quality.

AI summary
A conference support system includes: a detection unit configured to detect that a plurality of occupants riding in a same moving object is participating in a same online conference; a generation unit configured to generate an interior image indicating that the plurality of occupants is present in a same interior space of the moving object; and a transmission unit configured to transmit the interior image to a terminal device of a conference participant participating in the online conference.
