Solution Overview

Problem

Extended reality (XR) content display technologies often fail to securely display content intended for multiple users, leading to compromised security and inefficient resource usage due to improper device selection, and fail to adapt to user context such as location and viewing status.

Innovation Solution

An XR platform determines display parameters based on context, including user profiles and device capabilities, to securely display XR content on appropriate devices, conserving resources by ensuring content is only displayed when and where intended, using machine learning and AI to optimize display timing and location.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If XR content is displayed on inappropriate devices without context awareness, then device compatibility is improved, but security is compromised and resources are wasted

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedevice compatibilityVSAvoidsecurity
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The system dynamically determines display parameters based on contextual information including device capabilities, user profiles, and environmental factors. This dynamic adaptation allows the same XR content to be securely displayed across different device types (AR glasses, VR headsets, mobile devices) while maintaining security through context-aware parameter adjustment rather than static device assignment

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

Solution Approach 2:

The system changes display parameters (such as resolution, field of view, interaction modes) based on the specific device capabilities and contextual conditions. By adjusting parameters rather than restricting device types, the system achieves broad compatibility while maintaining security through parameter-based control rather than device-based restrictions

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

2Ease of operation

If XR content is displayed without context awareness, then ease of operation is improved, but resource efficiency deteriorates

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveoperation simplicityVSAvoidresource efficiency
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSLoss of energy

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs preliminary determination of display parameters by analyzing contextual information (device capabilities, user profiles, environmental conditions) before displaying XR content. This preliminary action ensures that resources are allocated efficiently from the start, avoiding waste while maintaining simple operation for the end user who doesn't need to understand the complex contextual analysis performed beforehand

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The system automatically determines optimal display parameters by analyzing contextual information without requiring user input or manual configuration. This self-service approach maintains operational simplicity for users while achieving resource efficiency through automated contextual analysis and parameter optimization

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

3Reliability

If context-aware display parameter determination is implemented, then security is improved, but system complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
ImprovesecurityVSAvoidsystem complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The system introduces a contextual analysis intermediary layer that sits between the XR content delivery and the display devices. This intermediary automatically determines optimal display parameters by analyzing contextual information, shielding users from system complexity while maintaining security through sophisticated parameter determination based on device capabilities, user profiles, and environmental factors

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

4Productivity

If resource conservation through selective display is implemented, then productivity is improved, but adaptability worsens

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveresource efficiencyVSAvoiddisplay flexibility
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSAdaptability or versatility

Solution Approach 1:

The system conserves resources by selectively determining display parameters based on contextual analysis rather than universally displaying all XR content. By changing parameters such as resolution, field of view, and interaction modes according to device capabilities and contextual conditions, the system achieves both resource efficiency and display flexibility, adapting to different scenarios without waste

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes
