Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing clothing treatment apparatuses lack flexibility and efficiency in controlling post-washing operations, leading to inconvenience, energy waste, and poor user interaction due to misjudgment of user presence and changing schedules.
Innovation Solution
A method and system for controlling a clothing treatment apparatus that detects user presence and preferences through a smart terminal, allowing dynamic adjustment of post-washing operations like drying or shaking based on at-home or out-of-home modes, with user feedback and remote control options.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If the apparatus automatically executes shaking and/or drying programs after washing based on preset control logic, then the clothing treatment is improved, but energy is wasted when the user is actually at home or changes plans
Solution Approach 1:
The system continuously monitors user presence through the smart terminal and provides real-time feedback to adjust the control logic. When the user is detected to be at home or to have changed plans, the system receives feedback signals and automatically cancels or adjusts the shaking and drying programs, avoiding energy waste while ensuring reliable clothing treatment when needed.
Solution Approach 2:
The control logic transitions from a static preset mode to a dynamic adaptive mode. The system dynamically adjusts the execution of shaking and drying programs based on real-time user presence detection and plan changes, allowing the apparatus to adapt its behavior to current conditions rather than following rigid predetermined instructions.
2Ease of operation
If the apparatus uses preset control logic to determine user presence and execute subsequent operations, then the control process is simplified, but it becomes inflexible and inconvenient when user plans change
Solution Approach 1:
The system incorporates continuous feedback mechanisms through the smart terminal that monitor user presence and plan changes. This feedback enables the control logic to adapt dynamically without requiring complex user input, maintaining ease of operation while significantly improving adaptability to changing user circumstances.
Solution Approach 2:
The apparatus autonomously monitors user presence and adjusts its operations without requiring explicit user commands. The smart terminal and control system work together to enable the apparatus to self-adjust its behavior based on detected user conditions, maintaining simple operation while achieving high adaptability.
3Device complexity
If the apparatus misjudges user presence as at home when the user left the smart terminal at home, then the control logic is simple, but the user experience deteriorates and operations become inconvenient
Solution Approach 1:
The system uses feedback from the smart terminal to accurately determine user presence status. When the user leaves the smart terminal at home, the apparatus detects this through the terminal's online status or location information, preventing misjudgment. This feedback mechanism maintains simple control logic while dramatically improving user experience by accurately reflecting actual user presence.

AI summary
A method and system for controlling a laundry processing device and equipment. The method comprises: after washing has finished, by detecting and determining whether, when configuring a washing program, a laundry processing device has been set with a subsequent operation at the end of washing, such as shaking loose and/or drying, and whether the current laundry processing device is in a work-at-home operation mode or a go-out operation mode, controlling the laundry processing device according to the determination result, so as to execute a corresponding shaking loose and/or drying operation item after washing is finished or unlocking the machine door to wait for a user to process, or the like. By means of a device control panel combined with a preset corresponding determination configuration of a subsequent operation after a washing program has ended at a remote end of an intelligent terminal, the human-computer interaction logic of control process configuration determination and processing is improved, and the dynamic switching of operation modes is combined, so that laundry processing after washing has finished is more simply, conveniently and intelligently implemented, better improving the human-computer interaction experience of a user, and having the features of low power consumption, low costs, and strong reliability, and device control being more flexible and well-developed.
