Automatic Wireless Display Input Source Conversion
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Conventional display apparatuses require user input to connect and convert input sources for wireless image transmission and display, which is inconvenient and requires manual intervention.
Innovation Solution
A display apparatus and control method that automatically connect to a source device and convert input sources upon receiving a wireless connection request signal, using Wi-Fi Peer-to-Peer communication and service discovery frames to facilitate seamless wireless image reception and display without user input.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If automatic connection and input source conversion are implemented, then user convenience is improved, but device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The display apparatus automatically performs connection setup and input source conversion without requiring user intervention. The system monitors for wireless connection requests, automatically establishes connections, and autonomously converts input sources based on received signals, enabling the device to serve itself rather than requiring manual user configuration.
Solution Approach 2:
The display apparatus enters discovery mode periodically in advance to proactively search for source devices before actual content transmission is needed. This preliminary action allows the system to be ready for connection when source devices attempt to connect, reducing latency and improving user experience without requiring reactive manual configuration.
2Reliability
If manual input instructions are required for connection and conversion, then device control precision is improved, but operation time increases
Solution Approach 1:
The display apparatus monitors and detects wireless connection request signals from source devices, using this feedback information to automatically initiate connection procedures and input source conversions. The system continuously checks for incoming connection requests and responds automatically, eliminating the time delay associated with manual user input while maintaining reliable control through signal-based feedback mechanisms.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent replaces manual mechanical input operations (user pressing buttons or entering commands) with automated electronic signal processing. The system substitutes the mechanical action of user input with electronic monitoring and automatic response to wireless connection signals, thereby reducing operation time while maintaining control precision through structured signal protocols.
