Electronic Device Prompt Information Display for Voice Application Interaction
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Users face inconvenient operations and poor user experience when using electronic devices due to the need for tedious steps to access functions, such as making calls, which involves entering an address book and searching for contacts.
Innovation Solution
An information processing method and electronic device that detects user operations on a display region and triggers operation instructions based on prompt information displayed, allowing users to perform functions like making calls or sending messages by selecting displayed information, improving user interaction and experience.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If traditional operation methods are used (entering address book, searching for contacts), then the electronic device can perform functions, but the operation process becomes tedious and user experience deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The system pre-generates prompt information displaying the operation function (e.g., making a call) and the corresponding operation object (e.g., contact name) before the user actually needs to perform the action. This preliminary display of relevant information eliminates the need for users to manually navigate through address books and search for contacts, directly resolving the contradiction by making operations immediately accessible without time loss.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent introduces prompt information as an intermediary element between the user and the underlying data (contact information). Instead of requiring direct interaction with the address book database, the system mediates through a simplified prompt display that shows essential information (operation function and operation object), allowing users to perform actions quickly without dealing with complex search procedures.
2Ease of operation
If multiple operation steps are required to access functions, then comprehensive control is achieved, but device complexity increases and ease of operation decreases
Solution Approach 1:
The system extracts only the essential elements needed for user interaction from the complete operation process. Instead of requiring users to navigate through the entire address book structure with multiple menus and search options, the patent extracts and displays only the critical prompt information (operation function and operation object), significantly simplifying the operation process while maintaining access to comprehensive device functions.
Solution Approach 2:
The system performs preliminary processing to prepare and display prompt information that contains all necessary operation details before the user acts. This preliminary action consolidates multiple operation steps into a single preparatory phase, where the system identifies and presents the relevant function and object, thereby reducing the perceived complexity for the user.

AI summary
An information processing method and an electronic device are provided. The method is applicable in the electronic device having a display unit. The electronic device is capable of running a voice application. Once the voice application is started, prompt information is displayed in a first display region of the display unit, for directing a user to operate the electronic device in a voice input mode by following the prompt information to implement an operation function corresponding to the prompt information. The method includes: detecting a first operation performed by the user on the first display region in a first operation mode different from the voice operation mode; and in response to the first operation, triggering a first operation instruction and executing the operation function corresponding to the prompt information. Hence, the user may use the function of the electronic device conveniently and the user experience is good.
