Solution Overview

Problem

Current devices require direct user input for operation, limiting the ability to control external devices based on the user's situation without conscious intervention.

Innovation Solution

A method and device that obtain identification and control information from bio data to transmit messages for controlling external devices, allowing operation based on the user's situation without direct input, using sensors to gather bio information such as fingerprint, heartbeat, or iris data to determine control approval and generate control messages.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Ease of operation

If direct user input is used to control the device, then the control is reliable and secure, but the ease of operation deteriorates because the user must consciously transmit input

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveease of operationVSAvoidextent of automation
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSExtent of automation

Solution Approach 1:

The device performs self-identification by automatically capturing bio information, generating identification information, and determining control approval without requiring the user to manually input data. The system serves itself by using its own sensors and processing capabilities to complete the authentication and control transmission workflow autonomously.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

Solution Approach 2:

The patent replaces manual mechanical input methods (buttons, switches, keyboard typing) with automatic bio-information-based identification. Sensors capture physiological data (fingerprint, iris, heartbeat) and the system automatically processes this information to generate control commands, substituting the mechanical input system with an automated biometric recognition system.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #28Mechanics substitution (Replace mechanical system)

2Extent of automation

If bio information is used to automatically control the device, then the extent of automation is improved, but the reliability deteriorates due to potential security concerns with automatic control

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveextent of automationVSAvoidreliability
Core Design Contradiction:
Extent of automationVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The patent introduces identification information as an intermediary between the raw bio information and the final control command. The system first converts bio information into identification information, then uses this identification information to determine control approval, and finally generates control information based on the approval decision. This multi-stage intermediary process ensures that automatic control is both reliable and secure.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

AI summary

Provided is a method of transmitting a message. The method includes: obtaining identification information used to identify a user based on bio information of the user that is obtained by a device; determining whether control over an external device is approved based on the identification information; obtaining control information used to control an operation of the external device based on the determination; and transmitting a message including the control information to the external device.
