Mobile Terminal Asset Checking via Tag Reading
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
The process of checking fixed assets in enterprises is inefficient and prone to errors due to manual operation and the complexity of the operating environment, requiring a more automated and accurate method.
Innovation Solution
A system comprising a server and mobile terminals with tag reading devices that automate the asset checking process by reading identification tags, synchronizing tasks, and uploading results, allowing for offline operation and improved accuracy through the integration of IoT technology.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Productivity
If manual operation is used for checking fixed assets, then the process can be carried out with simple equipment, but the efficiency is low and error rate is high
Solution Approach 1:
The patent replaces manual mechanical checking operations with automated electronic systems. Mobile terminals equipped with tag reading devices automatically capture asset information, replacing manual recording and verification processes. This substitution significantly improves checking efficiency while reducing human error.
Solution Approach 2:
The system enables self-service checking where the mobile terminal autonomously reads tag information, automatically compares it with the asset list, and generates checking results without continuous human intervention. The system serves itself by automatically synchronizing data with the server and updating asset status.
2Measurement precision
If automated tag reading is implemented, then checking accuracy is improved, but device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The mobile terminal is designed with multi-functionality, serving as both a communication device and an asset checking device. The tag reading device, processor, and display are integrated into the existing mobile terminal framework, allowing one device to perform multiple functions including asset checking, data synchronization, and result display without requiring separate dedicated equipment.
3Adaptability or versatility
If offline operation is enabled, then checking can continue in complex network environments, but data synchronization delay increases
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs preliminary actions by synchronizing asset data to the mobile terminal before offline checking begins. The terminal stores the latest asset list and checking results locally, enabling offline operation. When network connectivity is restored, the system automatically synchronizes any changes, ensuring data consistency without requiring continuous network connection during the checking process.

AI summary
A method for checking fixed assets of an enterprise which may be in various locations include receiving a checking task sent by the server, and obtaining fixed assets information by reading an identification tag of a plurality of fixed assets by a tag reading device of one or more mobile terminals. The method further can include obtaining an result of checking the fixed assets by checking the plurality of fixed assets according to the fixed assets information and the checking task, determining whether the result of checking the fixed assets is normal, and sending the result of checking the fixed assets to the server when the result of checking the fixed assets is normal.
