Solution Overview

Problem

Existing display devices with high pixel density suffer from perceptible pixels, reducing immersion and realistic sensation, and manipulating multiple devices is complex.

Innovation Solution

A display system comprising a first and second display device connected via wireless communication, where image data is transmitted, processed, and displayed on the second device while the first device is turned off, allowing intuitive gesture operations and image manipulation.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If multiple display devices are used to enhance display functionality, then display versatility is improved, but device manipulation complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedisplay versatilityVSAvoiddevice manipulation complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The patent combines multiple display devices into a unified system where the first display device transmits image data to the second display device, allowing users to interact with content on the second device using gestures while the first device serves as a secondary display or input device. This merging reduces operational complexity by enabling cross-device functionality.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

Solution Approach 2:

The first display device is designed to perform multiple functions: it can display content independently, transmit image data wirelessly to the second display device, and potentially serve as an input device for gesture recognition. This multi-functionality reduces the need for separate devices and simplifies user interaction.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)

2Manufacturing precision

If pixel size is reduced to increase pixel density, then display quality is improved, but manufacturing precision requirements increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvepixel densityVSAvoidmanufacturing precision requirements
Core Design Contradiction:
Manufacturing precisionVSEase of manufacture

Solution Approach 1:

The patent uses wireless transmission to copy image data from the first display device to the second display device, allowing the second device to display processed or enhanced versions of the content without requiring physical integration of pixels. This approach enables high pixel density displays without directly increasing manufacturing precision requirements for the display devices themselves.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #26Copying
