Solution Overview

Problem

In XR environments, space panels obstruct the user's line of sight during interactions, reducing the immersive experience.

Innovation Solution

The method involves determining an associated position for a first manipulation body in a manipulation body pair to adsorb a space panel, allowing it to move with the manipulation body and avoid blocking the user's view, enabling interactive operations by a second manipulation body.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Ease of operation

If the space panel appears in front of the user's line of sight, then the panel can be easily accessed and interacted with, but it blocks the user's viewing line of sight and reduces immersive experience

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvepanel accessibilityVSAvoidline of sight blocking
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSObject-affected harmful factors

Solution Approach 1:

The space panel is transformed from a static fixed-position element to a dynamic element that can be adsorbed to manipulation bodies and move with them. This allows the panel to adapt its position between being accessible (when adsorbed to manipulation body near user) and non-obstructive (when manipulation body moves to periphery), resolving the contradiction between ease of operation and line of sight blocking.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

Solution Approach 2:

The manipulation body acts as an intermediary carrier between the user and the space panel. By adsorbing the panel to the manipulation body, the system mediates the conflict between panel accessibility and view obstruction, allowing the panel to be accessed through the manipulation body while potentially positioning it in less obstructive locations.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

2Ease of operation

If the space panel is fixed in front of the user, then interaction is convenient, but it reduces the diversity of panel presentation positions in the virtual space

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveinteraction convenienceVSAvoidpanel presentation diversity
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSAdaptability or versatility

Solution Approach 1:

The panel's position is made dynamic through adsorption to manipulation bodies that can move freely in the virtual space. This enables the panel to be presented in diverse positions while maintaining interaction convenience through the manipulation body interface, resolving the contradiction between fixed-position convenience and position diversity.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

Solution Approach 2:

The manipulation body serves multiple functions: it acts as both an interaction interface for the user and a mobile carrier for the space panel. This multi-functionality allows the panel to maintain convenient interaction while gaining positional versatility through the manipulation body's movement capabilities.

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

3Object-affected harmful factors

If the space panel moves with the manipulation body, then it avoids blocking the user's line of sight, but it requires complex adsorption and tracking mechanisms

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveline of sight obstructionVSAvoidadsorption mechanism complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Object-affected harmful factorsVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

Instead of physically moving the actual panel with complex mechanical mechanisms, the system creates a virtual copy or representation of the panel that follows the manipulation body's position. This copying approach achieves the effect of panel movement without requiring complex physical adsorption and tracking mechanisms, resolving the contradiction between avoiding obstruction and mechanism complexity.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #26Copying
