IoT Device Location-Based Control Method
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Users are often required to manually operate device control functions between IoT devices for interconnection and intercommunication, which can be cumbersome and detract from the user experience.
Innovation Solution
An inter-device interactive control method that determines the location of a first device in a pre-established map, identifies the target operation, and uses this information to automatically determine and control the target operating device, eliminating the need for manual user intervention.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If manual operation is required for device control functions, then device interconnection and intercommunication can be achieved, but user experience deteriorates due to cumbersome operations
Solution Approach 1:
The system enables devices to automatically determine target operating devices based on location information and operation types without requiring manual user selection. The first device autonomously identifies and controls the appropriate target device through automated location-based determination, eliminating the need for users to manually operate device control functions while maintaining full interconnection and intercommunication capabilities between IoT devices
2Ease of operation
If automated control is implemented, then user experience improves, but device complexity increases due to location determination and automatic target identification mechanisms
Solution Approach 1:
The location determination module and automatic target identification mechanism serve multiple functions: they determine device locations in the IoT system, identify target operating devices based on operation types, and enable automated control without requiring separate manual control mechanisms. This multi-functionality reduces overall system complexity despite the introduction of automated features
Solution Approach 2:
The system introduces an intermediary control mechanism that automatically mediates between the first device and target operating devices. This intermediary layer handles location determination and target identification, simplifying the interaction model for users while managing the complexity of automated device communication and control through a centralized determination process

AI summary
A inter-device interactive control method is applied to a first device, and includes: determining a location of the first device in a pre-established map; acquiring a target operation of the first device; determining a target operating device based on the location and the target operation of the first device; and performing operations on the determined target operating device.
