Mobile Terminal Electronic Tag Display for Message Priority
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing mobile terminal devices do not effectively convey the degree of importance or urgency of received communication messages, requiring users to perform operations to check the sender or content to determine this information.
Innovation Solution
A mobile terminal device that extracts sender information, subject information, or text information from received communication messages and forms electronic tags, which are displayed on the device's screen, allowing users to quickly assess the importance or urgency without needing to read the entire message or check the sender.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If an icon indicating message reception is displayed on the display plane, then the user can recognize the reception of the communication message without fail, but the user cannot understand the degree of importance and the extent of emergency of the communication message
Solution Approach 1:
The communication message information is segmented into different components: a simple icon for reception recognition, and separate electronic tags for importance and emergency levels. This segmentation allows the display to convey multiple levels of information hierarchically, with the icon providing immediate recognition and the tags providing detailed classification without requiring the user to read the entire message content.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent adds a new dimension to the display by introducing electronic tags that provide classification information (importance and emergency levels) beyond the basic reception status. This dimensional expansion allows the user to understand the significance of messages at a glance without accessing the full message content, thus preserving information while maintaining simple recognition.
2Loss of information
If the user checks the subject or sender of the communication message to understand the degree of importance and emergency, then the user can obtain this information, but the user must execute predetermined operations to check
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs preliminary action by automatically generating and displaying electronic tags that indicate the importance and emergency levels of communication messages before the user needs to check them. This preliminary classification and display of key information eliminates the need for users to execute predetermined operations to access this information, as it is already presented in an easily visible format.
Solution Approach 2:
The system provides self-service by automatically analyzing the communication message content and generating appropriate electronic tags without requiring user intervention. The device itself performs the task of classifying and displaying importance and emergency information, freeing the user from having to manually check sender details or message subjects to understand the message significance.
3Loss of information
If the user reads the contents of the communication message to understand the degree of importance and emergency, then the user can obtain complete information, but the user must perform operations to read the message
Solution Approach 1:
The patent extracts the most critical information from the communication message content - specifically the importance and emergency levels - and presents them separately as electronic tags. This extraction allows users to obtain the essential classification information instantly without needing to read the entire message content, thus reducing time loss while still providing access to the most relevant information for determining message priority.
Solution Approach 2:
The system applies partial action by displaying only the most essential classification information (importance and emergency tags) rather than requiring complete message reading. This partial presentation of information is sufficient for users to determine message priority and decide whether full reading is necessary, thereby reducing the time investment required while still providing adequate information for initial assessment.

AI summary
A mobile terminal device includes a communication portion, a display plane, a first storage portion, and a control portion which controls to display a standby screen on the display plane during a standby operation of the communication portion. When the communication portion receives a communication message, the control portion controls to store the communication message in the first storage portion, then extracts at least a part of any of sender information, subject information, or text information in the communication message, forms an electronic tag in which a character string based on the extracted information is indicated, and controls the display portion to display the electronic tag on the standby screen.
