Wearable Display System with Dual Screen Spatial Distribution
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Wearable electronic devices have limited display screens, making it inconvenient for users to interact, enter content, and share information due to the small size, leading to accidental touches and difficulty in identifying information like two-dimensional codes.
Innovation Solution
The implementation of a display method using a combination of first and second display apparatuses, where they jointly or separately display content based on their presence on the device, optimizing display utilization and interaction functions to enhance user experience.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Volume of moving object
If a small display screen is used in wearable devices, then the device size is reduced and portability is improved, but the display area is limited making interaction and content entry inconvenient
Solution Approach 1:
The patent extends the display from a single screen to multiple screens distributed across different spatial locations. The first display apparatus (wearable device screen) and second display apparatus (external device screen) work together to provide a distributed display system, effectively increasing the display area by utilizing additional spatial dimensions beyond the wearable device itself.
2Volume of moving object
If a small display screen is used in wearable devices, then the device remains compact, but the icon and key size are reduced leading to accidental touches
Solution Approach 1:
The patent distributes display content across multiple screens, allowing icons and keys to be rendered at appropriate sizes on the external display apparatus while maintaining the compact form factor of the wearable device. This spatial distribution resolves the conflict between small device size and adequate touch target sizes.
3Volume of moving object
If a small display screen is used in wearable devices, then the device portability is maintained, but the ability to share information like two-dimensional codes is compromised
Solution Approach 1:
The patent introduces a second display apparatus as an intermediary for displaying information that requires larger visibility, such as two-dimensional codes for sharing. The wearable device acts as a controller that can offload display tasks to the external display apparatus, enabling information sharing functions that would be difficult on the small wearable screen alone.
4Device complexity
If a single display screen is used in wearable devices, then the device structure is simple, but the display flexibility and utilization are limited
Solution Approach 1:
The patent creates a dynamic display system where the display configuration can adapt based on the presence and state of the second display apparatus. The system can dynamically switch between using only the first display apparatus, only the second display apparatus, or both in combination, providing flexible display utilization that adapts to different usage scenarios.

AI summary
A display method and device, related to the field of electronic terminals. The electronic device includes a first display and a second display. The first display and the second display jointly display first display content if the first display is disposed on the electronic device; or the first display and the second display separately display content if the first display is not disposed on the electronic device, where the first display displays second display content, the second display content is related to first display content, and the second display displays third display content. The first display may be detachable, and the second display may be non-detachable. Embodiments are applied to scenarios in which displays of the electronic device jointly and separately display content, to improve display utilization of the electronic device or display flexibility, optimize a display function and/or an interaction function of the electronic device, and improve user experience.
