AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Some electronic devices have limited output modes and cannot meet users' demands for better output modes.

Method used

By acquiring the output modality information of each electronic device, an electronic device with the best output modality is selected and information is output from the device, or the output modality of the linked device is borrowed to meet the user's expectations.

Benefits of technology

This enables information to be output in an optimal manner even when the device itself has limited output modalities, thereby improving the user experience, especially for people with visual or hearing impairments or users who need to consider accessibility.
