Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
User control requirements for selecting output modes on wearable devices, such as VR systems, can inhibit immersion and disconnect the user's experience due to processing constraints.
Innovation Solution
An electronic device with a processor that determines content attributes and optimizes output based on specified conditions, allowing seamless operation of VR systems by executing appropriate applications for 2D, 3D, or 360-degree content.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If user control is implemented for selecting output modes according to content attribute, then content output optimization is achieved, but user immersion is inhibited and experience connection is disrupted
Solution Approach 1:
The system automatically detects content attributes (2D, 3D, 360-degree) and selects appropriate output modes without requiring user intervention. The processor analyzes content metadata and characteristics to autonomously configure the display parameters, enabling the system to serve itself rather than requiring user control for mode selection.
Solution Approach 2:
The system pre-configures multiple output modes (2D mode, 3D mode, 360-degree mode) in advance, each optimized for specific content attributes. When content is selected, the system has already prepared the appropriate mode settings, eliminating the need for real-time user control and mode switching during content playback.
2Measurement precision
If user control processing is added for mode selection, then content attribute matching is improved, but processing time and system complexity increase
Solution Approach 1:
The system replaces manual user control mechanisms with automated processor-based detection and decision-making. The processor analyzes content attributes by examining metadata and visual characteristics, substituting the mechanical interaction of user mode selection with an automated computational system that precisely matches content attributes to appropriate output modes.
3Ease of operation
If automated content attribute detection is implemented, then user control is minimized, but processing requirements and system complexity increase
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs partial attribute detection by focusing on key content characteristics rather than analyzing every aspect of the content. The processor detects essential attributes (such as presence of stereoscopic pairs, 360-degree panoramic indicators) without conducting exhaustive analysis, thereby minimizing user control while keeping processing requirements manageable.

AI summary
An electronic device includes a housing, a memory storing at least a piece of content and at least one application associated with an output of the content, a display exposed through one region of the housing and displaying the content, and a processor electrically connected to the memory and the display. The processor is configured to determine an attribute of at least part of the content, based on whether at least one specified condition is satisfied with respect to content selected by an input and, when it is determined that the attribute is associated with virtual reality (VR) content, to output the selected content based on execution of an application associated with an output of the VR content.
