Mobile-Terminal Mediation for Electronic Musical Instrument Access
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing electronic musical instruments require significant effort and time to utilize sound data from a server due to the need for communication-related instructions through input devices with lower operability than mobile terminals.
Innovation Solution
A communication system and method that facilitates easy access to server data by using a mobile terminal to simplify the connection process, enabling a communication device to connect to a wireless network and transmit device identifiers and instructions via Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, reducing the need for manual input on the electronic musical instrument.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If communication-related instructions are given via the input device of the electronic musical instrument, then the electronic musical instrument can receive sound data from the server, but the operability is lower and significant effort and time are required
Solution Approach 1:
The patent introduces a mobile terminal as an intermediary device between the user and the electronic musical instrument. The mobile terminal with its superior input device receives communication-related instructions from the user and transmits them to the electronic musical instrument, thereby improving operability and reducing the time required for data access while maintaining the ability of the electronic musical instrument to receive sound data from the server
2Productivity
If the electronic musical instrument directly accesses the server, then data utilization is efficient, but the input operation becomes complex and time-consuming
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments the system into three distinct components: the electronic musical instrument (which efficiently accesses and utilizes sound data from the server), the mobile terminal (which handles user input and communication instructions), and the server (which stores and provides sound data). This segmentation allows the electronic musical instrument to maintain high data utilization efficiency while the mobile terminal handles the complex input operations, resolving the contradiction between productivity and ease of operation

AI summary
A communication system including a terminal, an electronic device, and a server is provided. The terminal includes a login part logging in to the server, an identifier reception part receiving a device identifier corresponding to a user who has logged in, and a terminal instruction transmission part transmitting to the server the device identifier received by the identifier reception part and an instruction for the electronic device. The server includes an identifier storage part storing a user identifier in association with the device identifier of the electronic device corresponding to the user, an identifier transmission part acquiring device identifier corresponding to the user identifier and transmitting the device identifier to the terminal, a first server instruction reception part receiving the device identifier and the instruction for the electronic device, and a server instruction transmission part transmitting the received instruction to the electronic device corresponding to the received device identifier.
