Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Users face difficulties in recognizing and utilizing the functions of virtualized computer-implemented intelligent agents due to lack of prior knowledge, leading to incorrect recognition of user inputs and intentions, and there is a need for hints to facilitate voice input operations.
Innovation Solution
A portable communication device and method that generates hints based on user log analysis to provide natural language suggestions for executing device functions, utilizing path rules derived from touch and voice inputs to improve user interaction.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Extent of automation
If virtualized intelligent agents are implemented to provide automated functions, then productivity and automation extent are improved, but user understanding and correct operation become more difficult
Solution Approach 1:
The patent introduces an intermediary component that translates user inputs into intelligible forms for the virtualized agent and provides feedback about agent understanding back to the user. This intermediary layer bridges the gap between automated functions and user comprehension, allowing users to verify that their inputs are correctly interpreted without needing to understand the underlying automated processes.
Solution Approach 2:
The system implements feedback mechanisms that provide users with information about how their inputs are being processed by the intelligent agent. This includes confirming that the agent has correctly understood user intentions and showing what actions will be taken, enabling users to correct misunderstandings before they result in incorrect operations.
2Ease of operation
If voice commands are used to simplify user interaction, then ease of operation is improved, but recognition accuracy deteriorates due to user uncertainty about proper phrasing
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs preliminary actions by analyzing user inputs against multiple possible interpretations before executing any device functions. It pre-processes voice commands to identify potential meanings, checks for clarity and completeness, and only proceeds with execution when the intended function is confidently determined, thereby improving recognition accuracy while maintaining ease of use.
3Adaptability or versatility
If comprehensive function coverage is provided to meet all user needs, then adaptability is improved, but device complexity increases making user learning more difficult
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments the comprehensive set of device functions into organized categories and groups, making the overall system complexity manageable. By dividing functions into logical segments, the system can present only relevant options to users based on their specific needs, maintaining high adaptability while reducing the perceived complexity through structured organization.
