Wearable Display Mode Adjustment for Exercise Recognition
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Information processing devices worn by users, such as head-mounted displays, face challenges in maintaining visibility when displaying a large amount of information during various activities, leading to reduced recognition of information due to cluttered visuals.
Innovation Solution
An information processing device that acquires activity state information to dynamically adjust display modes, prioritizing essential information and omitting non-essential details based on exercise intensity, gaze direction, and usage frequency, ensuring that only critical information is displayed prominently and efficiently.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Loss of information
If a large amount of information is displayed on the wearable device, then the information completeness is improved, but the visibility and recognition of information deteriorates due to cluttered visuals
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments information into multiple priority levels (first priority, second priority, third priority) and displays them in a hierarchical manner. High-priority information is displayed prominently while lower-priority information is displayed with reduced visual prominence or omitted based on activity state, thereby maintaining information completeness while preventing visual clutter that reduces visibility.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent dynamically adjusts the display mode based on the user's activity state (e.g., exercise intensity, gaze direction). The display configuration changes in real-time to optimize visibility for the current activity, switching between different display modes that balance information completeness with visibility requirements.
2Adaptability or versatility
If multiple types of information are displayed simultaneously, then the information utility is improved, but the ease of operation and recognition deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies different display qualities to different information elements based on their priority and relevance to the current activity. High-priority information receives prominent display treatment (larger size, brighter intensity), while lower-priority information is displayed with reduced prominence or omitted, creating local quality variations that enhance recognition ease without sacrificing information utility.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent changes display parameters (such as brightness, size, position) based on the user's activity state and information priority. This dynamic parameter adjustment optimizes the balance between displaying multiple types of information and maintaining ease of recognition for each information element.
3Measurement precision
If detailed information is always displayed, then the information accuracy is improved, but the device complexity and processing load increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements partial information display by showing only the most relevant information based on activity state and priority levels. Instead of always displaying all available information, the system selectively displays partial information that is most useful for the current context, reducing processing complexity while maintaining information accuracy for critical data.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent performs preliminary classification and prioritization of information before display, organizing information into priority levels based on activity type and user needs. This preliminary processing reduces the complexity of real-time display decisions while ensuring accurate presentation of relevant information.

AI summary
There is provided an information processing device, an information processing method, and a program that make it possible to decrease reduction in a recognition rate corresponding to the amount of exercise of a user wearing a wearable device. Acceleration information is acquired as exercise state information, and movement speed is calculated. In a case where the movement speed exceeds certain speed, displaying is performed with a unit or a label in a plurality of pieces of information being omitted, whereby the plurality of pieces of information is displayed while reduction in a recognition rate is controlled. The present technology can be applied to a wearable device.
