Solution Overview

Problem

The existing technology lacks interaction between electronic devices and lamp strips, resulting in a poor user experience during listening or viewing, as lamp strip display control is independent of the electronic device.

Innovation Solution

A method for controlling lamp strips involves obtaining target program information from the electronic device, determining light drive data based on the program information, shape of the lamp strip, and sending this data to the lamp strip for interactive display control, using a lamp strip system with a data interaction module, lamp strip controller, and lamp beads.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Ease of operation

If the lamp strip uses preset display strategy for independent control, then the lamp strip can operate autonomously, but the interaction with electronic device is lacking and user experience is poor

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveautonomous operationVSAvoidinteraction capability
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSAdaptability or versatility

Solution Approach 1:

The patent implements a feedback mechanism where the lamp strip controller receives program information from the electronic device, processes it through a control strategy module, and adjusts lamp bead display accordingly. The electronic device also receives feedback about the lamp strip state, creating a closed-loop interaction system that enables adaptive lighting effects synchronized with media playback.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

Solution Approach 2:

The patent introduces a lamp strip controller as an intermediary device between the electronic device and lamp beads. This controller includes a data interaction module, strategy module, and control module that mediate the connection, enabling the electronic device to control lamp strip display effects without direct connection to each lamp bead, thus solving the interaction problem while maintaining operational simplicity.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

2Device complexity

If the lamp strip control is independent from electronic device, then the system structure is simple, but the synchronization and coordination between device and lighting is poor

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvesystem structureVSAvoidsynchronization capability
Core Design Contradiction:
Device complexityVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The patent merges the lamp strip control system with the electronic device by establishing a data interaction connection where the electronic device sends program information to the lamp strip controller. This integration allows the lamp strip to synchronize its display effects with the media playback from the electronic device, improving reliability of synchronization while keeping the overall structure relatively simple through shared control architecture.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

Solution Approach 2:

The lamp strip controller serves as an intermediary that receives program information from the electronic device, processes it through control strategies, and generates appropriate control signals for lamp beads. This intermediary architecture enables reliable synchronization between electronic device operations and lighting effects without requiring complex direct connections to each component.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

3Device complexity

If the lamp strip uses fixed display control, then the control logic is simple, but the lighting effect cannot adapt to different program content

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecontrol logicVSAvoidcontent adaptation
Core Design Contradiction:
Device complexityVSAdaptability or versatility

Solution Approach 1:

The patent implements dynamic control where the lamp strip display effects are not fixed but adapt in real-time based on program information received from the electronic device. The control strategy module processes different types of program data (audio, video, text) and dynamically adjusts lamp bead brightness, color, and patterns to match the content being played, enabling content-adaptive lighting effects.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

Solution Approach 2:

The patent changes multiple parameters of the lamp strip system including brightness, color temperature, and display patterns based on the program content. The control strategy module analyzes program information and adjusts these parameters dynamically - for example, changing color temperature for different moods, adjusting brightness for different scenes, or creating synchronized patterns for music beats, thereby achieving versatile content adaptation.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes
