Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If manual setting of location information is used, then user control over location data is maintained, but operation complexity increases and user experience deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The system automatically detects the physical relative location between electronic devices using wave transmitters and receivers, and autonomously adjusts location information without requiring user intervention. The device serves itself by performing location detection and information adjustment automatically, eliminating the need for manual setting operations.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent replaces manual mechanical setting operations with an automated system using wave transmitters and receivers to detect location relationships. The mechanical/manual process of finding settings interfaces and manually inputting location data is substituted with an automated acoustic/wave-based detection and adjustment system.
2Measurement precision
If manual reset of location information is required after physical location changes, then location accuracy can be maintained, but operation complexity increases and user experience deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The system continuously monitors the physical relative location between electronic devices using wave transmitters and receivers, and provides feedback to automatically adjust location information when changes are detected. This closed-loop feedback mechanism maintains location accuracy without requiring user awareness or intervention.
Solution Approach 2:
The system automatically detects location changes and adjusts location information autonomously, serving itself by maintaining accuracy without user involvement. The device self-regulates to keep location information consistent with physical arrangements.
3Ease of operation
If automated location detection is implemented, then ease of operation improves, but device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The wave transmitters and receivers serve multiple functions: they detect physical relative location, enable automated location information adjustment, and can be used for other collaborative display functions. This multi-functionality reduces the need for separate dedicated components.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent introduces wave transmitters and receivers as intermediary components that mediate between the physical location and the digital location information. These intermediaries simplify the overall system by providing a standardized way to detect and communicate location relationships.

AI summary
This application provides a location information adjustment method and system, and a device. The method includes: A first electronic device determines that a first trigger condition is satisfied, sends a first instruction to enable a first sound wave transmitter to send a first sound wave signal, and sends a second instruction to enable a second sound wave transmitter to send a second sound wave signal. A second electronic device sends a third instruction to enable a first sound wave receiver to receive the first sound wave signal and the second sound wave signal, calculates a first receiving start moment and a second receiving start moment, obtains first location information, determines second location information based on the first receiving start moment, the second receiving start moment, and the first location information, and sends the second location information to the first electronic device. The first electronic device updates third location information by using the second location information. In this application, preset location information in the first electronic device can be automatically adjusted, and a user does not need to manually set the location information, thereby improving user experience.
