Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing devices fail to seamlessly display images from wearable devices to other devices, considering user interactions and device characteristics, leading to inconsistent and inconvenient user experiences when using multiple devices.
Innovation Solution
A method and system that determine user interaction with a wearable device, transmitting relevant image information to another device, including synchronization data for moving images, to ensure seamless viewing by adjusting display standards and positions based on user inputs and device capabilities.

Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Area of stationary object
If image data is transmitted from wearable device to other device, then user can view image on larger display, but user experience becomes inconsistent across devices
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements dynamic adjustment of image display parameters based on real-time detection of user operation states. The system continuously monitors whether the user is wearing the wearable device or using another device, and automatically adjusts image position, size, and transmission timing to maintain consistent user experience across different devices. This dynamic adaptation resolves the contradiction by making the display system flexible rather than fixed.
Solution Approach 2:
The system employs feedback mechanisms by detecting user operation states and using this information to control image transmission and display behavior. When the system detects that the user has switched from the wearable device to another device, it triggers appropriate image transmission actions. This closed-loop feedback ensures that image display adapts to actual user needs, maintaining experience consistency while enabling larger display when appropriate.
2Ease of operation
If image transmission is triggered by user operation detection, then seamless viewing is achieved, but system complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent makes the wearable device and other devices perform multiple functions: the wearable device not only displays images but also detects user operation states and triggers image transmission; the receiving device not only displays images but also participates in operation detection. This multi-functionality reduces the need for separate dedicated components, thereby managing system complexity while achieving seamless viewing through coordinated multi-device operation.
3Productivity
If device characteristics are considered for image display, then optimized display is achieved, but adaptation difficulty increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent systematically adjusts display parameters (image position, size, transmission timing) based on detected operation states and device characteristics. When a user switches devices, the system changes these parameters to optimize display for the new device's capabilities while maintaining experience consistency. This parameter-based adaptation approach enables efficient optimization without requiring complex structural modifications, thereby managing adaptation difficulty.
