Wearable AR Application Screen Grouping for Virtual Object Control
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Conventional wearable devices, such as AR glasses, individually provide multiple application execution screens, causing inconvenience in controlling their positions and resulting in visually unorganized virtual objects.
Innovation Solution
A wearable device that groups and integrates multiple application execution screens as virtual objects, allowing them to be controlled collectively based on user inputs, such as gaze direction and gestures, and displays them as a unified group or independently.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If multiple application execution screens are provided individually in AR environment, then various functions can be provided, but user convenience in controlling screen positions deteriorates and visual organization deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The patent merges multiple application execution screens into a unified group that can be controlled collectively. Instead of managing each screen independently, the system combines them into a single controllable unit, allowing users to move, position, and organize all screens through one interface rather than multiple separate controls.
Solution Approach 2:
The grouped execution screens become a universal control target that handles multiple functions simultaneously. The unified control mechanism can manage various application screens regardless of their individual purposes, creating a multi-functional control system that simplifies user interaction across different applications.
2Adaptability or versatility
If multiple application execution screens are provided individually, then various functions can be provided, but visual organization of virtual objects deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The patent visually merges multiple execution screens into a unified group structure. By combining individual screens into a single controllable unit with unified positioning and organization, the system achieves better visual coherence and structure in the AR environment, transforming scattered individual screens into an organized collective arrangement.
3Adaptability or versatility
If each execution screen is designated individually for movement, then flexibility in positioning is provided, but user convenience deteriorates due to multiple separate controls
Solution Approach 1:
The patent combines multiple individual positioning controls into a single unified control mechanism. Users can move and reposition all execution screens simultaneously through one interface rather than controlling each screen separately, maintaining positioning flexibility while dramatically simplifying the user interaction process.

AI summary
A wearable device grouping and providing a plurality of application execution screens and a method for controlling the same are provided. The wearable device includes a display module and at least one processor configured to control the display module to allow an execution screen of a first application to be shown as a virtual object according to a first type, detect a first user input for executing a second application, after detecting the first user input, determine whether a second user input for requesting to allow an execution screen of the second application to be included and shown in a same group as the execution screen of the first application is detected, and allow the execution screen of the second application to be shown independently from or while forming one group with the execution screen of the first application, based on a result of the determination.
