Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
The usability of existing data sharing functions in mobile terminals is poor due to the need for iterative operations across multiple applications, leading to inconvenience for users.
Innovation Solution
A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing instructions that enable an information processing device to acquire image data, display identification images for applications, receive user input to select applications, and perform data sharing with multiple data output destination applications, allowing each selected application to process the image data independently.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If the sharing function transmits data to one application at a time through iterative operations, then each application can process the data individually, but the user operation complexity increases and convenience deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The patent merges multiple sequential data sharing operations into a single batch operation. The system allows users to select multiple target applications simultaneously and transmits the same source data to all selected applications in one operation, eliminating the need for iterative sharing and significantly improving user convenience while maintaining full adaptability.
Solution Approach 2:
The sharing function is enhanced to support both single-target and multi-target operations universally. The system provides a unified interface that automatically adapts to the number of selected target applications, whether one or multiple, making the operation method universal across different usage scenarios without requiring separate procedures.
2Adaptability or versatility
If multiple applications are coupled through iterative data sharing, then diverse processing functions are achieved, but the time required for data processing increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent combines multiple data transmission operations into a single batch operation. By selecting multiple target applications simultaneously and transmitting data to all of them in one action, the system reduces the total time required for data sharing while preserving the ability to couple multiple applications for diverse processing functions.
Solution Approach 2:
The system performs preliminary selection of multiple target applications before executing the data transmission. This preliminary action allows the system to prepare all necessary transmission channels in advance and execute the actual data sharing in a single operation, minimizing the time loss associated with sequential operations.
3Adaptability or versatility
If the sharing function supports multiple target applications, then the system versatility improves, but the operational steps increase
Solution Approach 1:
The patent merges the selection and transmission steps into a single integrated operation. Users can select multiple target applications and initiate data sharing through one unified action, eliminating the need for multiple separate operations and reducing the perceived complexity despite supporting multiple applications.
Solution Approach 2:
The sharing interface is designed to universally handle both single and multiple target applications through the same operational procedure. This universal design ensures that the system maintains high versatility while keeping the operation steps simple and consistent regardless of the number of selected applications.
