Solution Overview

Problem

Existing mobile communication systems lack the ability to efficiently recognize and utilize prior relationships or communication sessions between devices, failing to effectively utilize stored information to streamline future communication sessions.

Innovation Solution

A mobile communication device detects nearby devices using location information and retrieves operator data to store and present relevant information based on time or frequency of communication, allowing users to access prior messages and personal details for enhanced communication sessions.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Loss of information

If existing systems store information from prior communication sessions, then information availability is improved, but the ability to recognize and utilize prior relationships is insufficient

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveinformation availabilityVSAvoidability to recognize and utilize prior relationships
Core Design Contradiction:
Loss of informationVSAdaptability or versatility

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs preliminary actions by automatically detecting the presence of target mobile communication devices and proactively retrieving and presenting relevant information from prior communication sessions before new sessions begin. This includes automatically accessing stored information about operators and communication history, preparing it for immediate use when communication is initiated, thereby eliminating the need for manual information retrieval and enhancing the system's adaptability to recognize prior relationships.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

2Loss of information

If existing systems fail to push pertinent information, then system complexity is reduced, but information availability for use prior to initiating communication is insufficient

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveinformation availability for useVSAvoidsystem complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Loss of informationVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The system automatically performs preliminary retrieval and presentation of pertinent information from prior communication sessions before the user initiates a new communication. The mobile communication device detects target devices, accesses stored information about operators and communication history, and presents this information in advance, eliminating the need for complex manual information pushing while ensuring information is available when needed.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

3Productivity

If mobile communication devices do not utilize stored information, then ease of operation is maintained, but efficiency of future communication sessions is reduced

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveefficiency of communication sessionsVSAvoidease of operation
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The system automatically performs preliminary detection of target devices and retrieval of relevant information from prior sessions before the user needs to communicate. This automatic preliminary action eliminates the need for users to manually search through stored information, maintaining ease of operation while significantly improving the efficiency of communication sessions by having all necessary information ready for immediate use.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

AI summary

A disclosure provides mobile communication devices that receive information corresponding to users associated with target mobile communication device, via a near field communication protocol. The information is stored in a storage device either within the mobile communication device or within a separate server. If it is determined that the target mobile communication device is within a predetermined distance of the mobile communication device, data entries associated with the stored information are created and retrieved, in real time. The data entries are displayed on the mobile communication device. The data entries may include personal information or email messages from prior communication sessions, which are employed in future communications between the mobile communication devices.
