Information Processing Device for Equipment Maintenance
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
In equipment maintenance scenarios, displaying all installed equipment can lead to users mistakenly working on the wrong equipment, as they are not clearly differentiated from those they are responsible for.
Innovation Solution
An information processing device with a memory and processors that stores maps and equipment information, allowing users to select equipment for maintenance tasks and take images of completed work, while differentiating between target and non-target equipment through display appearance and position confirmation.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Loss of information
If all installed equipment is displayed on the map, then the user can see the complete equipment list, but the user may mistakenly work on the wrong equipment due to lack of clear differentiation
Solution Approach 1:
The patent extracts and highlights only the work target equipment from the complete equipment list. The map display selectively emphasizes the specific equipment assigned for maintenance while de-emphasizing or differently displaying other equipment, enabling users to quickly identify the correct target without confusion from unrelated equipment.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent applies different display qualities to different equipment on the map. The work target equipment is displayed with distinctive visual characteristics (such as highlighting, different colors, or special markers) that differentiate it from non-target equipment, creating local quality variation that guides user attention to the correct equipment.
2Reliability
If the system requires image capture for work completion, then work accuracy is improved, but operation complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The system uses the mobile terminal's built-in camera function to capture work completion images, leveraging existing device capabilities rather than requiring separate imaging equipment. This self-service approach maintains operational simplicity while ensuring accurate documentation of work completion.
Solution Approach 2:
The system prompts users to capture images at the specific moment of work completion, establishing a standardized documentation process. This preliminary action of capturing evidence before leaving the equipment ensures reliable verification without adding complex post-processing steps.
Data Source
AI summary
An information processing device provided with a memory and one or multiple processors. The memory stores a map, information related to equipment installed in a region indicated by the map, and a person who is to work on the equipment in association with each other. The processor is configured to control a display device to display the map and an image of the equipment according to a user. In a case where the image is selected, the processor is configured to control the display device to display information related to work to be performed on the equipment in the image, and in a case where the work is finished, the processor is configured to request the user to take an image of an installed state of the equipment, and cause the memory to store the taken image.
