Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
The existing methods for adding contact information to user equipment, such as address books, are inefficient as they require multiple user selections and steps, leading to low efficiency in the process.
Innovation Solution
A method and user equipment that receive and recognize gesture information on a communication interface to automatically identify and add contact information to an address book, utilizing gesture recognition to simplify the process by matching gesture information with preset recognition information and combining information elements.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Productivity
If traditional step-by-step contact addition method is used, then contact information can be added to address book, but the process requires multiple user selections and takes significant time
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs preliminary recognition of contact information from communication records before the user initiates the addition process. When the user selects a contact to add, the system has already pre-processed and identified relevant contact details, eliminating the need for manual step-by-step input and significantly reducing the time required for contact addition.
Solution Approach 2:
The system automatically extracts and fills contact information fields without requiring manual user input for each field. The contact addition process serves itself by automatically recognizing and populating contact details from communication records, reducing user effort from multiple selections to a single confirmation action.
2Ease of operation
If manual step-by-step contact addition is used, then contact information can be verified and added accurately, but the process requires multiple user selections and interactions
Solution Approach 1:
The system extracts contact information directly from communication records and separates it from the manual input process. By taking out the contact details extraction task from the user's manual operations and automating it through recognition algorithms, the system simplifies the user interface from multiple selection steps to a single confirmation action, reducing operational complexity while maintaining accuracy.
3Productivity
If automated gesture recognition is implemented, then contact addition efficiency is improved, but the system complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The system merges the gesture recognition function with the existing contact management interface. Instead of adding a separate complex gesture control system, the patent integrates circle drawing gestures directly into the contact selection and addition flow, allowing users to circle contacts on the interface to initiate addition. This merging approach improves efficiency by reducing interaction steps while avoiding the need for entirely new complex gesture recognition subsystems.
