Dynamic Page Transition in Electronic Transaction Terminal
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current electronic transaction systems require customers to repeatedly navigate between product pages and purchase pages when buying multiple products, leading to inconvenience and increased burden, as the system either automatically transitions to the purchase page after product registration or not, depending on uniform specifications.
Innovation Solution
An electronic transaction terminal that presents a product page with insertion objects, receives customer instructions, and inserts selected products into an electronic cart, transitioning to a purchase page if a satisfied condition is met or displaying an insertion notification if not, allowing customers to easily manage their purchases by controlling the transition based on product category, purchase history, or vendor specifications.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If the system automatically transitions to the purchase page after a product is registered in the electronic cart, then the customer's convenience improves when purchasing a single product, but the customer must repeatedly return to the product page when purchasing multiple products, increasing the operational burden
Solution Approach 1:
The system dynamically adjusts the page transition behavior based on the shopping context. When only one product is in the cart, the system automatically transitions to the purchase page. When multiple products are being collected, the system maintains the product page display to allow continuous browsing. This dynamic adaptation resolves the contradiction by making the system behavior flexible rather than fixed, improving ease of operation without increasing navigation complexity.
Solution Approach 2:
The system changes the transition parameter (automatic transition flag) based on the number of products in the cart and the current shopping state. By monitoring cart size and browsing behavior, the system adjusts whether automatic transition should occur, effectively resolving the contradiction between single-product and multi-product purchasing scenarios through parameter-based control.
2Ease of operation
If the system does not automatically transition to the purchase page, then the customer can easily add multiple products to the cart, but the customer must manually navigate to the purchase page, increasing the time required to complete the transaction
Solution Approach 1:
The system dynamically determines whether to display an insertion notification based on the shopping context. When the cart contains only one product, the system suppresses notifications and automatically transitions to purchase, reducing time loss. When multiple products are being collected, the system displays notifications to confirm successful additions, easing product addition while managing customer awareness without forcing navigation.
3Device complexity
If uniform specifications are applied for page transition, then the system is simple to implement, but the customer's convenience deteriorates when the shopping circumstances change
Solution Approach 1:
The system uses parameter changes to achieve adaptability without complex implementation. By monitoring simple parameters like cart size and transition count, the system adjusts its behavior to match different shopping scenarios. This approach maintains implementation simplicity while significantly improving adaptability to varying customer needs.
Solution Approach 2:
The system incorporates feedback mechanisms by monitoring customer actions (product additions, browsing behavior) and adjusting page transition behavior accordingly. This feedback loop enables the system to adapt to different shopping scenarios automatically, resolving the contradiction between implementation simplicity and scenario adaptability through intelligent response to user behavior.

AI summary
In an electronic transaction terminal (20), a presenter (601) presents to a customer a product page including a product and an insertion object associated with the product. A receiver (602) receives an instruction from the customer. When an instruction selecting the insertion object associated with the product is received, an inserter (603) inserts the selected product into an electronic cart of the customer. When the product is inserted into the electronic cart, if a transition condition is satisfied, the presenter (601) causes the screen to transition from the product page to a purchase page that starts payment for purchasing products already inserted into the electronic cart. If the transition condition is not satisfied, the presenter (601) presents, along with the product page, an insertion notification indicating that the product shown on the product page was inserted into the electronic cart, and after waiting until an instruction selecting another product is received, causes the screen to transition from the product page to a product page showing the selected other product.
