Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions

Solution Overview

Problem

Existing information cards, such as visitor cards, are often printed on plastic or paper, making unified management and replacement inconvenient.

Innovation Solution

An information management method that involves sending an information acquisition request to a server, receiving visitor information, generating card information based on this information, and sending it to an electronic card for display, allowing for convenient management and updating of card content.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Ease of manufacture

If printed plastic cards or paper cards are used for visitor information, then the cards can be easily manufactured and distributed, but unified management and replacement of card information becomes inconvenient

Engineering Contradiction:

Improveease of manufactureVSAvoidease of operation

Core Design Contradiction:

Ease of manufactureVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The patent uses electronic cards that can be remotely copied and updated through a server system. Instead of physically distributing new printed cards for each visitor, the system creates digital copies of visitor information and transmits them to electronic cards, enabling unified management while maintaining ease of information distribution

Inventive Principle:

Principle #26Copying

Solution Approach 2:

The patent replaces the mechanical system of printing and physically distributing cards with an electronic system. Visitor information is captured, processed, and transmitted digitally to electronic cards via wireless communication, eliminating the need for physical card production and distribution while improving manageability

Inventive Principle:

Principle #28Mechanics substitution (Replace mechanical system)

2Productivity

If traditional printed cards are used, then card production is simple, but on-site input and management of visitor information requires significant time and effort

Engineering Contradiction:

ImproveproductivityVSAvoidtime loss

Core Design Contradiction:

ProductivityVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs preliminary actions by capturing visitor information and generating card data in advance before the actual card distribution. The server processes visitor details, generates formatted card information, and prepares it for transmission, so that when electronic cards are distributed, the information is already ready, reducing on-site input time

Inventive Principle:

Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The patent introduces a server as an intermediary between the information collection system and the electronic cards. The server receives visitor information, processes it, formats it according to templates, and transmits it to electronic cards, automating the entire information management process and eliminating manual on-site input requirements

Inventive Principle:

Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

AI summary

An information management method, a device, and a medium. The information management method applied to a first terminal, including: sending an information acquisition request to a server, so that the server responds to the information acquisition request and sends visitor information to the first terminal; receiving the visitor information sent by the server; generating card information according to the visitor information; and sending the card information to an electronic card, so that the electronic card displays the card information.
