Solution Overview

Problem

Existing spliced screen systems rely on fixed, wired installations for sub-display screens, limiting flexibility and reliability, especially in large-scale performances where wireless and flexible control is necessary.

Innovation Solution

A display control method that uses a wireless display control signal sent by a display controller to each sub-display screen based on a time code signal, allowing for independent wireless transmission and reception, and enabling each sub-display screen to report status information and perform corresponding display processing.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Stability of the object's composition

If sub-display screens are fixedly installed on supporting structures with wired transmission, then display stability is improved, but flexibility and adaptability deteriorate

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedisplay stabilityVSAvoidflexibility
Core Design Contradiction:
Stability of the object's compositionVSAdaptability or versatility

Solution Approach 1:

The patent replaces the mechanical wired transmission system with a wireless transmission system. The display controller wirelessly transmits control signals to sub-display screens via radio frequency communication, eliminating the need for physical cable connections while maintaining control stability and enhancing flexibility in installation and configuration.

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

2Reliability

If wired transmission is used for display control signals, then signal transmission reliability is improved, but system complexity and installation difficulty increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvesignal transmission reliabilityVSAvoidsystem complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent substitutes the complex wired transmission system with a wireless communication system. The display controller uses radio frequency modules to transmit control signals without physical cables, reducing installation complexity and maintaining reliable signal transmission through wireless protocols.

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

3Ease of operation

If sub-display screens operate independently without centralized control, then ease of operation is improved, but display synchronization and coordination deteriorate

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveindependent operationVSAvoiddisplay synchronization
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSStability of the object's composition

Solution Approach 1:

The patent implements a feedback mechanism where sub-display screens report their operational status to the display controller. The controller receives status information from each sub-display screen and adjusts control signals accordingly, ensuring synchronized operation while allowing independent device architecture. This feedback loop maintains display coherence across all sub-screens.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

Solution Approach 2:

The patent divides the display system into independent sub-display screens that can operate autonomously but are coordinated through wireless communication. Each sub-display screen functions independently with its own processing capabilities while receiving synchronized control signals from the display controller, achieving both independence and coordination.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation
