Context-Aware Terminal Environment Control System
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Conventional methods for providing etiquette and green environment services in public places, such as noise reduction and radio wave blocking, are ineffective in automatically managing user terminals across all devices and fail to rapidly release radio blocking during emergencies.
Innovation Solution
A system and method using space and context-aware devices with multiple sensors to automatically set and restore user terminal environments based on location and context, ensuring privacy and providing etiquette and green environment services by changing device settings such as vibration mode, call blocking, and radio interference blocking.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Extent of automation
If conventional broadcast methods are used to ask users to switch terminals to vibration mode or turn off terminals, then etiquette services are provided, but the method is ineffective and requires manual user action
Solution Approach 1:
The system enables user terminals to automatically adjust their own operating modes (vibration, silent, flight mode) based on context information received from the space and context-aware device, eliminating the need for manual user intervention while maintaining etiquette compliance
Solution Approach 2:
The system implements a feedback loop where the space and context-aware device monitors the environment and user terminal states, automatically sending control commands to terminals that need adjustment, and verifying compliance through continuous monitoring
2Object-affected harmful factors
If radio blocking is applied to all user terminals in a public place, then radio interference in important facilities is blocked, but it is difficult to rapidly release radio blocking in the event of an emergency
Solution Approach 1:
The system dynamically adjusts radio blocking settings on user terminals based on real-time context information, allowing rapid activation when needed and equally rapid deactivation when emergency conditions change, unlike static radio blocking methods
Solution Approach 2:
The system pre-configures user terminals with the capability to receive and execute environment control commands, so that when emergencies occur or are resolved, the terminals can immediately switch states without delay for manual reconfiguration
3Measurement precision
If multiple sensors are used to sense location and space, then context awareness is improved, but device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The space and context-aware device serves multiple functions: it senses environmental context, identifies user terminal locations, determines appropriate operating modes, and communicates control commands, consolidating what would otherwise require separate specialized devices into a single multi-functional system

AI summary
A system for automatically setting an environment of a user terminal includes a space and context-aware device for sensing a space and a context using a plurality of sensors, defining environment setting information corresponding to the sensed space and context, and sending the defined environment setting information to a user terminal, thereby requesting environment setting or release. Further, the system for automatically setting an environment of a user terminal includes a user terminal for changing environment setting mode while communicating with the space and context-aware device and automatically changing to a status corresponding to the environment setting information when the environment setting information is received.
