Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing electronic devices lack an efficient method to automatically enable or disable accident detection functions in response to disaster situations, leading to unnecessary power consumption and potential malfunctions.
Innovation Solution
An electronic device method that receives disaster information, determines if a rescue request is needed, and transmits relevant information wirelessly, enabling or disabling accident detection functions based on the situation to conserve power and ensure safety.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If the accident detection function is always switched on in general use, then the user safety is improved, but the power consumption increases and malfunction occurs
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies dynamics by making the accident detection function adjustable between different operational states (first state for high sensitivity during disasters, second state for low power consumption during normal use). The system dynamically transitions between these states based on the operational environment, resolving the contradiction between continuous safety monitoring and power conservation.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent changes the operational parameters of the accident detection function by switching between at least two different states with different detection sensitivities and power consumption characteristics. This parameter change allows the system to optimize between safety and power efficiency based on the current operational context.
2Use of energy by moving object
If the accident detection function is manually switched on or off by the user, then the power consumption is controlled, but the user cannot respond in time when accidents occur without warning
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs self-service by automatically determining when to switch between operational states based on received disaster information, without requiring manual user intervention. The processor autonomously monitors disaster alerts and adjusts the accident detection function accordingly, eliminating the delay between user awareness and system response.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent implements feedback by continuously monitoring disaster information from external sources and using this information to adjust the accident detection function. The system receives disaster information, processes it through the processor, and automatically switches states based on the feedback from this information, creating a closed-loop control system.
3Reliability
If the accident detection function is enabled in normal use, then the user safety is improved, but unnecessary power consumption occurs and malfunction is caused
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies periodic action by enabling the accident detection function only during specific periods when disaster information is received, rather than continuously. The system periodically activates the detection function in response to external disaster alerts, allowing safety monitoring only when necessary and conserving power during normal operational periods.
Data Source
AI summary
A method of operating an electronic device when a disaster occurs and disaster information is received. The disaster information may be relayed by an external electronic device, a server, or could be detected by one or more sensors within the electronic device that detect a possible emergency such as the user has fallen, or there has been impact sensed consistent with an accident, etc. The method includes receiving disaster information, determining whether a rescue request will be made by analyzing the disaster information, and transmitting rescue request information based on the determination result. An electronic device is configured to perform the method.
