Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Users face challenges in determining and monitoring goals across multiple applications and devices, requiring a centralized control system to streamline goal achievement and provide relevant information and suggestions.
Innovation Solution
A system that categorizes user applications and devices, presents target interfaces, monitors and aggregates information, and allows user selection and control of applications and devices to achieve specific targets, with the ability to automatically control devices for goal attainment.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Measurement precision
If users manually take information from multiple applications and devices to determine goals, then the system can identify user goals, but the process is time-consuming and complex
Solution Approach 1:
The system automatically monitors applications and devices, aggregates their information, and determines user goals without requiring manual user input. The system serves itself by autonomously analyzing data from multiple sources to identify goals and suggest relevant applications and devices.
Solution Approach 2:
The system performs preliminary monitoring and aggregation of information from applications and devices before goal determination is needed. By continuously collecting and organizing data in advance, the system is ready to quickly identify goals when needed without requiring manual information gathering at the moment of decision.
2Productivity
If users manually monitor and control multiple applications and devices, then they can achieve goals, but the operational complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The system merges the monitoring and control functions for multiple applications and devices into a single unified interface. Instead of requiring users to manage each application and device separately, the system combines them into one consolidated view where goals can be set and monitored across all connected services simultaneously.
Solution Approach 2:
The system creates a universal control interface that can manage diverse applications and devices through a single platform. This multi-functional system handles various types of applications and devices using common monitoring, aggregation, and control mechanisms, reducing the need for separate specialized tools for each service.
3Quantity of substance
If the system aggregates information from multiple applications and devices, then goal-related information is comprehensive, but the information processing complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The system extracts only the relevant goal-related information from the vast amount of data generated by applications and devices. By filtering and selecting only the information that pertains to user goals, the system reduces the complexity of processing while maintaining comprehensive coverage of goal achievement progress.
Solution Approach 2:
The system segments the aggregation process into organized categories and structured formats. By dividing the comprehensive information into manageable segments based on goal types and application categories, the system makes the large volume of aggregated data more digestible and easier to process while maintaining completeness.

AI summary
Systems, computer products, and methods are described herein for determining the applications and/or devices that a user users, or has used in the past, through a user computer system. The system categorizes the applications and/or devices related to one or more potential targets in which the user maybe interested and presents the targets to the user for selection by the user. The system monitors and aggregates information from the applications and/or devices related to the one or more desired targets and provides suggestions to aid in achieving the desired targets. The system allows the user to control, or may automatically control, the applications and/or devices related to the one or more desired targets in a central location. The aggregated information and/or one or more desired targets may be pushed to systems, applications, and devices, in order to act as filters or additional information for providing additional output to the user.
