Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
The wireless remote controller of existing augmented reality systems is easily lost during use, compromising portability and functionality.
Innovation Solution
Integrating a physical remote control unit onto the housing of a wearable control device, allowing direct control of audio-visual information without the need for a separate wireless remote controller.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If a separate wireless remote controller is used to control the head-mounted display, then the control functionality is provided, but the device is easy to be lost and portability is reduced
Solution Approach 1:
The patent combines the wireless remote controller and the wearable control device into a single integrated unit. The control module is embedded within the housing of the wearable device, eliminating the need for a separate remote controller. This merging resolves the contradiction by providing control functionality while preventing loss, as the controller is now permanently attached to the wearable device.
2Ease of operation
If a separate wireless remote controller is used, then control operations can be received, but the system complexity increases due to multiple separate components
Solution Approach 1:
The patent integrates the control module with the wearable control device housing, reducing the system from multiple separate components to a single unified device. The control module is embedded within the housing, eliminating the need for a separate wireless remote controller while maintaining full control functionality.
3Ease of operation
If a wireless remote controller is carried separately, then control functionality is available, but portability is reduced due to the need to carry additional items
Solution Approach 1:
The patent merges the wireless remote controller functionality into the wearable control device itself. The control module is integrated within the housing, eliminating the need to carry a separate remote controller. This resolves the portability issue by consolidating all necessary components into a single wearable device that the user already carries on their body.

AI summary
The present disclosure relates to a wearable control device (104), a virtual/augmented reality system and a control method. The wearable control device (104) is intended to connect with a head-mounted audio-visual device (102) and includes a top housing portion (53) and a bottom housing portion (51) which are arranged in parallel, and a gap (55) is formed between two opposite surfaces of the top housing portion (53) and the bottom housing portion (51). Tail portions of the top housing portion (53) and the bottom housing portion (51) are connected through a transition portion (54). At least one physical remote control unit (52) is disposed on a top surface of the top housing portion (53). A computing module corresponding to the head-mounted audio-visual device (102) is disposed inside the top housing portion (53) and/or the bottom housing portion (51), and the computing module is electrically connected with the physical remote control unit.
