Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing systems for determining a person's environment or activity are often complex and lack reliability due to the variety of possible environments and activities, and they fail to accurately identify objects in proximity.
Innovation Solution
A method implemented in a head-mounted device that receives and stores wireless tag data from electronic wireless tags to identify devices within a given range, allowing for accurate identification and providing additional data on distance, angle, environment, and activity, which can modify device functions such as notifications or optical settings.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If complex technical means are used to determine a person's environment or activity, then the system can cover more scenarios, but the system complexity increases and reliability decreases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent introduces electronic wireless tags as intermediary devices that simplify the identification process. Instead of using complex technical means to directly determine environment or activity, the system uses simple wireless tags attached to objects or locations as mediators. The head-mounted device merely needs to detect these tags to identify the environment or activity, significantly reducing system complexity while maintaining versatility.
2Loss of information
If complex technical means are used to determine a person's environment or activity, then more parameters can be detected, but the reliability of the system decreases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent extracts the identification function from complex environmental sensing systems and separates it into simple wireless tags. Each tag contains specific identification information for particular environments or activities. The head-mounted device only needs to detect and read these tags, eliminating the need for complex multi-parameter detection systems and improving reliability through simplicity.
3Measurement precision
If existing proximity detection devices are used, then the proximity of objects can be detected, but the identification of specific objects is not possible
Solution Approach 1:
The patent merges proximity detection capability with object identification by integrating wireless tag reading functionality into the head-mounted device. The system combines the spatial awareness of proximity sensors with the identification power of wireless tag data, allowing the device to both detect that an object is nearby and identify what specific object it is, thereby recovering the identification information that would otherwise be lost.

AI summary
Disclosed is a method implemented with a head-mounted device for identifying a distinct device within a given range distance of the head-mounted device, the head-mounted device includes a receiver adapted to receive wireless signals and a memory adapted to store data. The method includes: a tag data receiving step during which tag data identifying at least one electronic wireless tag placed on the distinct device are received by the receiver of the head-mounted device; a storing step during which the stored data including the tag data are stored in the memory of the head-mounted device; and an identification step during which the device is identified based on the stored data.
