Wearable Display Triggered by Object Proximity
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Wearable information display terminals often display information passively and without consideration for user intent, leading to annoyance due to unnecessary information display at inappropriate times.
Innovation Solution
The use of a display trigger, such as a 'hand' or registered object, to initiate and end information display only when the user desires, allowing for controlled and timely information presentation within the user's field of vision.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Loss of information
If information is displayed continuously in wearable terminal, then information availability is improved, but user annoyance increases due to unnecessary display
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs preliminary detection of user gaze direction and object identification before initiating information display. The imaging unit captures images and the object identification unit detects objects in advance, so that information is displayed only when the user is actually looking at the relevant object, avoiding unnecessary display and reducing user annoyance while maintaining information availability.
2Loss of time
If information display is triggered by user input, then display timing accuracy is improved, but operation complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The wearable terminal automatically performs object identification and gaze detection without requiring explicit user input. The system uses the imaging unit to capture images, the object identification unit to detect objects, and the gaze detection unit to determine when the user is looking at the object, thereby achieving accurate display timing while maintaining ease of operation through automated self-service functionality.

AI summary
In a wearable information display terminal, information related to an object is displayed at a timing required by a user in an easily recognized form. Photography is performed in a field-of-vision direction, a first object is detected from a first image obtained by the photography, relevant information related to the first object is acquired from a network, and a second image related to the relevant information is generated. A second object different from the first object is detected from the first image, the second object is used as a display trigger, and the second image is displayed when the second object is close to the first object.
