Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current information sharing methods lack an attractive graphical user interface and real-time features for sharing appliance state changes between multiple users, with unclear event timing and authenticity of shared information.
Innovation Solution
An information sharing method that provides a graphical user interface for sharing appliance state changes within homes, prioritizing displays based on occurrence frequency of event information and using a server to manage and transmit this information to display devices, allowing for real-time and enhanced reality experiences.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If information on appliance state changes is shared between multiple users, then the reality and real-time properties of information are enhanced, but the complexity of system configuration and user interface increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent introduces a server as an intermediary component that receives appliance state information from multiple homes, determines display priorities based on occurrence frequencies, and distributes this processed information to terminal devices. This mediator architecture resolves the contradiction by centralizing the complex processing logic on the server side, thereby enhancing information reliability and real-time properties while preventing the complexity from overwhelming the user interface at the client side.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent dynamically changes the display priority parameter of appliance state information based on occurrence frequencies. By adjusting this parameter according to how frequently certain appliance states occur across multiple homes, the system enhances the relevance and reality of shared information while maintaining a manageable user interface through automated parameter adjustment rather than manual configuration.
2Ease of operation
If display priority is determined by occurrence frequency of home appliance event information, then the attractiveness and relevance of graphical user interface is improved, but the complexity of information processing and priority determination increases
Solution Approach 1:
The system implements self-service by automatically determining display priorities based on occurrence frequencies of appliance events. The server autonomously processes incoming appliance state information, calculates occurrence frequencies, and adjusts display priorities without requiring manual user intervention or complex user-side processing logic. This transfers the processing complexity to the server while keeping the user interface simple and attractive.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent employs feedback mechanisms where the server continuously monitors appliance state information, calculates occurrence frequencies, and uses this feedback to dynamically adjust display priorities. This closed-loop feedback system improves the relevance and attractiveness of the graphical user interface by automatically adapting to the actual usage patterns and event frequencies observed in the system.
3Quantity of substance
If information from multiple homes is aggregated and displayed, then the quantity and variety of shared information increases, but the difficulty of managing and organizing this information increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments the aggregation and organization logic by implementing a server that separately processes information from multiple homes independently. The server receives appliance state information from different homes, determines display priorities for each home's information based on their respective occurrence frequencies, and organizes this segmented information for display. This segmentation approach allows the system to manage large quantities of information from multiple sources without overwhelming complexity at the user interface level.
