Solution Overview

Problem

Current light strips and strings lack flexibility and richness in bead control, as they typically offer fixed lighting and dynamic effects based on user presets, leading to aesthetic fatigue.

Innovation Solution

A method for controlling light strips and strings that involves obtaining pose information of a target user using a pose sensor, determining user poses, and adjusting lighting parameters accordingly to control the beads dynamically.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Ease of operation

If fixed lighting and dynamic effects are used based on user presets, then the device complexity is reduced and ease of operation is improved, but the adaptability and richness of bead control deteriorate

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveease of operationVSAvoidadaptability
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSAdaptability or versatility

Solution Approach 1:

The patent implements dynamic bead control by capturing user pose information in real-time and automatically adjusting lighting parameters to match the detected pose. This transforms the fixed lighting system into a dynamic one that adapts to user actions, resolving the contradiction between ease of operation and adaptability.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

Solution Approach 2:

The system incorporates feedback by continuously monitoring user pose through pose sensors and using this information to adjust lighting parameters. This closed-loop feedback mechanism enables the lighting system to respond to user actions automatically, maintaining ease of operation while significantly improving adaptability.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

2Adaptability or versatility

If pose sensing and real-time control are implemented, then the adaptability and richness of bead control is improved, but the device complexity and power consumption increase

Engineering Contradiction:
ImproveadaptabilityVSAvoiddevice complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies multi-functionality by using a single pose sensor to capture user pose information that serves multiple purposes: determining user presence, identifying pose type, and controlling lighting parameters. This universal approach improves adaptability without proportionally increasing device complexity.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)

Solution Approach 2:

The system implements self-service by automatically controlling lighting parameters based on detected pose information without requiring manual user input. The system serves itself by interpreting pose data and generating appropriate lighting commands autonomously, improving adaptability while keeping the control interface simple.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

3Adaptability or versatility

If pose sensing and real-time control are implemented, then the adaptability and richness of bead control is improved, but the power consumption increases

Engineering Contradiction:
ImproveadaptabilityVSAvoidpower consumption
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSUse of energy by moving object

Solution Approach 1:

The patent implements periodic action by capturing pose information at specific intervals rather than continuously monitoring. The system captures pose data when needed (e.g., when user enters the detection zone) and maintains lower power consumption during idle periods, balancing adaptability with power efficiency.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #19Periodic action

AI summary

Embodiments of the present application relate to methods for controlling a light strip or a light string including a plurality of beads, an electronic device, and a storage medium. The method includes obtaining pose information of a target user collected by a pose sensor; determining a user pose of the target user based on the obtained pose information; determining target lighting parameters based on the determined user pose, where the target lighting parameters are lighting parameters matching or corresponding to the determined user pose, and the target lighting parameters are used for indicating lighting of the plurality of beads; and controlling the plurality of beads according to the target lighting parameters. Illumination of the beads in the light strip can be controlled through user's pose information, thereby improving the flexibility and richness of bead control.
