Solution Overview

Problem

Conventional electronic devices cannot adjust their position automatically until a control instruction from a user or remote controller is received, limiting their ability to respond to user behavior in real-time.

Innovation Solution

An information processing method and electronic device that acquire a parameter related to user behavior, determine if it meets a preset condition, and adjust their position accordingly, allowing for automatic movement based on user interactions.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Extent of automation

If the electronic device waits for control instructions from user or remote controller to adjust position, then the device operates with simple control logic, but the device cannot respond to user behavior in real-time

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveautomatic position adjustmentVSAvoidcontrol system complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Extent of automationVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The electronic device performs preliminary actions by proactively adjusting its position based on predicted user behavior patterns. The system analyzes user behavior data in advance and executes position adjustments before explicit control instructions are given, embodying the preliminary action principle where the system prepares and acts ahead of direct user commands.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The system implements feedback by continuously monitoring user behavior and using this information to adjust device position automatically. The feedback loop captures user actions, analyzes them through behavior analysis modules, and translates them into position adjustment commands, creating a closed-loop control system that responds dynamically to user needs without requiring direct commands.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

2Productivity

If the electronic device uses remote control for position adjustment, then the control method is simple, but the interaction efficiency is low

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveinteraction efficiencyVSAvoidoperation complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The electronic device performs self-service by automatically analyzing user behavior and adjusting its own position without requiring external control inputs. The system uses its own sensors and processing capabilities to monitor user actions and execute position changes autonomously, embodying the self-service principle where the device serves itself based on observed user needs.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

Solution Approach 2:

The system replaces mechanical remote control operations with behavioral analysis-based automatic control. Instead of requiring physical remote control mechanisms or manual input devices, the system substitutes these with electronic behavior detection and analysis systems that automatically translate user actions into position adjustment commands, eliminating the need for mechanical control interfaces.

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

3Reliability

If the electronic device does not move until instructed, then the device maintains stable position, but the device cannot maintain optimal distance from user

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveposition stabilityVSAvoiddistance adaptation
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSAdaptability or versatility

Solution Approach 1:

The electronic device applies dynamics by transitioning from static position maintenance to dynamic position adjustment based on real-time user behavior analysis. The system continuously adapts its position coordinates in response to detected user actions, implementing dynamic control that balances position stability with the ability to maintain optimal user distance through behavior-driven adjustments.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

AI summary

An information processing method and an electronic device are provided. The method includes: acquiring a first parameter related to a first behavior of a user of an electronic device, in a case that a current position of the electronic device is a first position, where the first behavior is a behavior which does not cause the electronic device to move; determining whether the first parameter meets a preset condition to obtain a first determination result; and adjusting the current position from the first position to a second position, in a case that it is determined that the first parameter meets the preset condition.
