Innovation Solution
An electric mobility device communication system that includes central computers in wireless communication with electric mobility devices and client servers, which determine available devices, select the appropriate device for a service request, transmit requests, access and update map files based on perception data, and establish peer-to-peer communication for tasks such as inventory management and anomaly detection.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Productivity
If multiple electric mobility devices are deployed in a service area, then the system can handle more service requests and improve productivity, but the complexity of managing and selecting appropriate devices increases
Solution Approach 1:
A central computer system acts as an intermediary between client servers and multiple electric mobility devices. The central computer receives service requests, determines device availability, applies selection criteria, and transmits requests to appropriate devices, thereby managing the complexity of coordinating multiple devices while maintaining high productivity
Solution Approach 2:
The system continuously monitors the availability status of electric mobility devices and uses this feedback information to make intelligent selection decisions. The central computer determines which devices are available and applies selection criteria based on real-time status information to optimize service request allocation
2Manufacturing precision
If the system maintains detailed map files and perception models of the service area layout, then navigation and service execution precision improve, but the amount of data to be transmitted and processed increases
Solution Approach 1:
Map files representing the predetermined layout of the service area are prepared in advance and stored in the central computer system. When a service request is transmitted to an electric mobility device, the relevant map data is pre-configured or made available, eliminating the need to transmit complete map data with each request and reducing data transmission volume while maintaining navigation precision
3Productivity
If the central computer selects the most appropriate electric mobility device based on multiple criteria, then service request execution efficiency improves, but the time required for device selection increases
Solution Approach 1:
The central computer continuously monitors and maintains real-time information about device availability and status. This ongoing feedback allows the system to quickly determine which devices are available and apply selection criteria without requiring time-consuming queries, thus reducing device selection time while maintaining efficient service request execution

AI summary
An electric mobility device communication system includes one or more electric mobility devices located within a service area, one or more remotely located client servers, and one or more central computers in wireless communication with the one or more electric mobility devices and the one or more remotely located client servers. The central computers execute instructions to receive a service request from one of the client servers. The service request represents a task that one of the electric mobility devices executes within the service area. The central computers determine a total number of electric mobility devices available within the service area. In response to determining more than one electric mobility device is available within the service area, the central computers identify an electric mobility device that executes the service request based on one or more electric mobility device selection criteria and transmit the service request to the electric mobility device.
