Application Service Transfer Between Terminals via External Device
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current mobile terminals require complex connection settings to link with external devices, hindering seamless execution of applications across different terminals and devices.
Innovation Solution
A method where a first terminal executes an application with an external device, transmits information about the application and connection details to a second terminal, allowing the second terminal to automatically connect with the external device and continue the application's execution.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If a mobile terminal executes an application with an external device connected, then the application functionality is provided, but the connection setting procedure becomes complicated
Solution Approach 1:
The first terminal performs preliminary actions by storing connection information about the external device and automatically transmitting it to the second terminal when service transfer is requested. This preliminary preparation of connection data eliminates the need for complex manual connection settings at the time of service transfer, resolving the contradiction between ease of operation and device complexity
Solution Approach 2:
Connection information acts as an intermediary element that bridges the first terminal, second terminal, and external device. Instead of requiring direct complex pairing between all devices, the pre-stored connection information mediates the connection process, simplifying the operation while maintaining the necessary device interactions
2Reliability
If connection information is manually configured for each terminal-external device pair, then connection reliability is improved, but the time required for connection establishment increases
Solution Approach 1:
Connection information is prepared and stored in advance in the first terminal before service transfer occurs. This preliminary configuration ensures connection reliability is maintained while eliminating the time-consuming manual setup process at the moment of service transfer, as the second terminal receives ready-to-use connection data
Solution Approach 2:
The connection information from the first terminal is copied and transmitted to the second terminal. This copying process preserves the reliability of the original connection configuration while enabling rapid establishment of the same connection on the second terminal without requiring time-consuming manual reconfiguration
Data Source
AI summary
A method of executing an application by a first terminal is provided. The first terminal executes an application with at least one external device connected to the first terminal, and the first terminal transmits, to a second terminal, information about the application and connection information regarding the at least one external device. The second terminal establishes a connection with respect to the at least one external device based on the connection information, and executes the application with the at least one external device connected to the second terminal based on the information about the application.
