Flash Control via Electronic Ticket View Time Detection
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Conventional intelligent terminal technologies require users to perform complex operations to turn on or off the flash, making it inconvenient to adapt to environmental changes or quickly control lighting, especially in situations like viewing electronic tickets.
Innovation Solution
A flash control method that detects view operations and effective time ranges of electronic tickets, using sensors to determine user requirements and automatically control the flash component for lighting, reducing the need for manual application switching and enhancing convenience.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If the conventional flash control interface is used, then the flash can be controlled, but the operation becomes complex and inconvenient requiring multiple menu openings or separate applications
Solution Approach 1:
The patent merges the flash control function directly into the electronic ticket application interface. When the user opens the electronic ticket, the flash control button is integrated within the same interface, eliminating the need to switch to separate system menus or flash control applications. This combining of functions resolves the contradiction by reducing operational steps while maintaining flash control capability.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent implements preliminary action by automatically activating the flash when the electronic ticket is opened and the current time falls within the ticket's valid time range. This automatic activation eliminates the need for manual flash control operations in specific scenarios, improving ease of operation while maintaining system control.
2Adaptability or versatility
If manual flash control is used, then the user has control, but the flash cannot automatically adapt to environmental changes or user needs
Solution Approach 1:
The patent uses the ticket valid time range as feedback to automatically determine when flash activation is needed. The system monitors the current time against the stored valid time range, and when they match, the flash is automatically activated. This feedback mechanism enables environmental adaptation (time-based lighting conditions) while maintaining operational simplicity.
Solution Approach 2:
The system performs self-service by automatically activating the flash based on the ticket's valid time range without requiring user intervention. The electronic ticket system itself provides the control logic, eliminating the need for users to manually control the flash while adapting to temporal environmental conditions.
3Speed
If the flash control requires separate applications or menus, then system control is maintained, but the response time is delayed and quick lighting cannot be achieved
Solution Approach 1:
The patent merges flash control functionality directly into the electronic ticket application, eliminating the need to switch to separate system menus or flash control applications. The flash control button and logic are integrated within the ticket interface, enabling immediate activation when the ticket is opened and conditions are met, thus improving speed while reducing structural complexity.
