Wearable Display Visibility Management via Time-Division Mode
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 by the user.
Innovation Solution
An information processing device that acquires activity state information to adjust display modes, including simultaneous and time-division display modes, based on exercise intensity, ensuring that only essential information is displayed at appropriate times to minimize visibility reduction.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Quantity of substance
If a large amount of information is displayed simultaneously on the wearable device, then the information provision is comprehensive, but the visibility and recognition rate of information is reduced
Solution Approach 1:
The display mode is dynamically adjusted based on the user's exercise intensity. When exercise intensity is high, the system switches to time-division display mode to maintain visibility. When exercise intensity is low, it uses simultaneous display mode to provide comprehensive information. This dynamic adaptation resolves the contradiction between information quantity and visibility.
Solution Approach 2:
The system implements periodic switching between different display modes based on exercise intensity thresholds. The display alternates between simultaneous display and time-division display according to the user's physical state, ensuring that critical information remains visible while providing comprehensive information coverage over time.
2Adaptability or versatility
If multiple types of information are displayed at the same time, then the information coverage is comprehensive, but the user's ability to recognize information appropriately is compromised
Solution Approach 1:
The display information is segmented into different time slots when exercise intensity is high. Instead of displaying all information simultaneously, the system divides information display into sequential segments, allowing the user to recognize each piece of information clearly without overwhelming visual input, thus maintaining recognition accuracy while providing comprehensive coverage.
Solution Approach 2:
The system applies different display quality strategies to different information types based on their importance and the user's current state. Critical safety information receives higher display priority and is ensured to be visible, while less critical information is displayed in a manner that does not compromise overall recognition accuracy.

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. If the movement speed exceeds certain speed, a plurality of pieces of information is displayed in a time-division manner for a certain amount of information each with which amount a recognition rate is not decreased, whereby a plurality of pieces of information is displayed while reduction in the recognition rate is controlled. The present technology can be applied to a wearable device.
