Solution Overview

Problem

Traditional electronic whiteboards require hand-drawing graphics, which is inefficient and difficult to ensure accuracy, causing trouble in conferences and subsequent processing.

Innovation Solution

An intelligent interactive display device that recognizes hand-drawn graphics and converts them into standard graphics, providing a control list with associative icons for selecting or jumping to graph drawing interfaces, enhancing user experience.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Ease of operation

If hand-drawing graphics on electronic whiteboard, then user can create graphics freely, but drawing efficiency is low and accuracy is difficult to guarantee

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvegraph drawing freedomVSAvoidgraph drawing efficiency
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSProductivity

Solution Approach 1:

The system copies the user's hand-drawn trajectory information and converts it into standard graphics through recognition algorithms. The hand-drawn graphic serves as a template or sketch, and the system generates the corresponding standard graphic (pie chart, bar chart, etc.) based on this trajectory, thereby maintaining drawing freedom while dramatically improving efficiency and accuracy.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #26Copying

Solution Approach 2:

The patent replaces the mechanical hand-drawing process with an automated recognition system. Instead of manually drawing each graphic element, users simply trace the desired shape, and the system automatically converts this trajectory into the corresponding standard graphic through image processing and pattern recognition algorithms.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #28Mechanics substitution (Replace mechanical system)

2Ease of operation

If hand-drawing graphics on electronic whiteboard, then user can create graphics freely, but drawing accuracy is difficult to guarantee

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvegraph drawing freedomVSAvoidgraph drawing accuracy
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSManufacturing precision

Solution Approach 1:

The system copies the essential geometric features from the hand-drawn trajectory and reconstructs them as precise standard graphics. By recognizing the trajectory pattern (circle for pie chart, rectangle for bar chart, etc.) and converting it to vector-based standard graphic specifications, the system ensures high drawing accuracy while preserving user creativity.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #26Copying

Solution Approach 2:

The system changes the parameters of the hand-drawn graphic (trajectory points, shapes, proportions) into standardized graphic parameters. Through coordinate transformation and parameter normalization, the irregular hand-drawn trajectory is converted into precise mathematical definitions of standard graphics, thereby improving accuracy.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

3Adaptability or versatility

If hand-drawing various graphics, then user can express ideas creatively, but subsequent processing becomes troublesome

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvegraphic expression creativityVSAvoidgraphic processing ease
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSEase of manufacture

Solution Approach 1:

The system copies the creative intent from hand-drawn graphics and transforms it into standardized graphic formats that are easy to process. The hand-drawn creative expression serves as input, and the system generates corresponding standard graphics (with proper formatting, labels, and structures) that can be easily copied, pasted, and processed in presentations or reports.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #26Copying

Solution Approach 2:

The patent introduces an intermediary processing layer between creative expression and final application. The hand-drawn graphic acts as a sketch or draft, and the system's recognition and generation mechanism serves as an intermediary that converts this sketch into a polished, ready-to-use standard graphic, thereby facilitating subsequent processing.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)
