Mobile Terminal Message Transfer with Wearable Trigger
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing wearable devices with limited screen size are not suitable for displaying complex user interfaces or web pages with large text and image content, leading to inefficient power and data usage on mobile phones when users view notifications.
Innovation Solution
A method where a mobile terminal receives a message notification with web page address information, and upon user interaction, it determines if the user has viewed the message within a certain time threshold, obtaining and displaying the web page content only if the interval is short, thereby reducing power and data consumption.

Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If the mobile terminal continuously obtains and displays web page content when receiving message notifications, then users can view web page content on the mobile terminal, but power and data traffic are wasted when the user does not use the mobile terminal for a long time
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs preliminary actions by sending message notifications to the wearable device in advance and monitoring user interaction intent. When the user shows intent to view the message (e.g., tapping a notification), the system prepares to transfer content only at that moment, rather than continuously checking or pre-loading content. This preliminary monitoring of user intent allows the system to activate content transfer only when necessary.
Solution Approach 2:
The system dynamically adjusts its behavior based on real-time user actions and device usage state. When the wearable device detects user interaction (e.g., tapping a notification), it sends a trigger signal to the mobile terminal. The mobile terminal then dynamically checks its usage state and determines whether to transfer web page content based on current conditions, making the content transfer process adaptive rather than static or continuous.
2Productivity
If the mobile terminal transfers web page content to the wearable device, then users can view content on the wearable device, but the mobile terminal consumes power and data traffic unnecessarily if the user does not view the content
Solution Approach 1:
The system implements a feedback mechanism where the wearable device monitors user interactions with message notifications and sends trigger signals back to the mobile terminal. When the user taps or interacts with a notification on the wearable device, this action is detected and communicated to the mobile terminal, which then decides whether to transfer the web page content. This feedback loop ensures content transfer occurs only when there is actual user demand.
Solution Approach 2:
The wearable device autonomously monitors user interactions and autonomously decides when to trigger content transfer to the mobile terminal. The system uses the wearable device's own interaction detection capabilities to service the content transfer need, rather than requiring the mobile terminal to continuously poll or pre-load content. This self-service approach optimizes resource usage by activating transfer only when the wearable device itself detects user intent.
Data Source
AI summary
A mobile terminal includes: a receiver, configured to receive a first message including web page address information; a transmitter, configured to send a message notification to the wearable device; a processor, configured to record a first moment at which that the mobile terminal is used is detected, where the processor is configured to determine that a user has chosen to view the first message; the processor is configured to determine whether a time interval between a second moment and the first moment is less than a time interval threshold; and the receiver is further configured to obtain web page content when the time interval is less than the time interval threshold; and a display, configured to display the web page content. The mobile terminal obtains and displays the web page content only when the foregoing time interval requirement is satisfied.
