Information Processing Device Wireless Display Buffering
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing information processing devices face issues with maintaining a stable display when short-range wireless communication is disrupted, leading to abrupt disconnection of display screens, particularly in scenarios where devices like smartphones are lifted from cradles during use.
Innovation Solution
Incorporating a control unit and memory within the information processing device to buffer and display information even when the wireless communication quality falls below a threshold, ensuring continuous display by retaining and displaying previous data until communication is re-established.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If short-range wireless communication is used to supply display information from one information processing device to another, then data exchange capability is improved, but display stability deteriorates when communication is disrupted
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs preliminary actions by storing display information in the memory of the second information processing device before communication disruption occurs. When the first device is lifted from the cradle, the stored information is immediately supplied to maintain display continuity, preventing abrupt screen disconnection.
Solution Approach 2:
The memory of the second information processing device acts as an intermediary between the first information processing device and the display device. It buffers display information during communication disruptions, ensuring continuous supply to the display device even when direct wireless communication is interrupted.
2Ease of operation
If the first information processing device is lifted from the second information processing device for operation, then user operability is improved, but wireless communication connection deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
Display information is preliminarily stored in the memory of the second information processing device before the first device is lifted. This preliminary storage ensures that even when lifting causes communication disruption, the display can continue using the pre-stored information.
Solution Approach 2:
The system ensures continuity of useful action by maintaining display output even during communication disruption. The stored information in memory continues to be supplied to the display device, ensuring the display function remains active and useful throughout the lifting and repositioning operation.
3Loss of information
If display information is continuously supplied through wireless communication, then display freshness is improved, but display continuity deteriorates when communication disconnects
Solution Approach 1:
Display information is preliminarily stored in memory before communication disruption. This preliminary storage ensures that when disconnection occurs, the display can continue using the stored information, maintaining continuity while preserving relatively fresh content.
Solution Approach 2:
The memory serves as a cushion that absorbs the impact of communication disruption. By storing information beforehand, it provides a buffer that maintains display continuity during the transition period when wireless communication is interrupted, preventing abrupt display termination.
