Solution Overview

Problem

Existing behavior wallpapers are inefficient and inflexible due to their reliance on a single user for unlocking, limiting interaction and extending the duration of the unlocking process.

Innovation Solution

A method where a first electronic device sends a request to multiple second electronic devices to unlock a behavior wallpaper by distributing task items, allowing multiple users to collaborate and share the final wallpaper.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Ease of operation

If a single user unlocks the behavior wallpaper, then the unlocking process is simple to operate, but the interaction and interest are poor and the unlocking period is long

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvesimplicity of unlocking processVSAvoidunlocking efficiency
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSProductivity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent segments the unlocking process by dividing task items into multiple parts that can be distributed to different users. Each user works on specific task items independently, and their progress is aggregated to unlock the behavior wallpaper collectively. This segmentation enables parallel processing of tasks, reducing the overall unlocking period while maintaining operational simplicity through automated task distribution and progress tracking.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

2Device complexity

If a single user unlocks the behavior wallpaper, then the system is simple to manage, but the interaction and interest of users are poor

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvesystem management complexityVSAvoiduser interaction capability
Core Design Contradiction:
Device complexityVSAdaptability or versatility

Solution Approach 1:

The patent implements a universal task management system that can handle multiple users and various task types through a unified framework. The system automatically distributes task items to different users, tracks their progress, and aggregates results to unlock the behavior wallpaper. This multi-functional system manages complexity internally while providing rich user interaction capabilities, allowing different users to participate in unlocking the same behavior wallpaper through their respective task completions.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)

3Productivity

If multiple users participate in unlocking the behavior wallpaper, then the unlocking efficiency and flexibility are improved, but the system complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveunlocking efficiencyVSAvoidsystem complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent implements a self-service mechanism where the system automatically performs task distribution, progress tracking, and result aggregation without requiring manual intervention. When multiple users participate in unlocking the behavior wallpaper, the system autonomously manages the complexity of coordinating their efforts, distributing appropriate task items, monitoring completion status, and combining results. This self-service approach enables efficient multi-user collaboration while keeping the system management transparent and automated, preventing complexity from becoming a burden.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service
