Solution Overview

Problem

Current mobile terminals face difficulties in modifying voice recognition results and performing additional functions using recognized voice inputs, limiting the convenience and versatility of voice recognition capabilities.

Innovation Solution

A mobile terminal and controlling method that includes a microphone and touchscreen, allowing users to input voice commands, display recognition results, and combine selected results with additional voice inputs to modify previous outputs or perform new functions, enhancing voice recognition functionality.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Ease of operation

If voice recognition results are displayed and selected, then user interaction is improved, but the ability to modify results and perform additional functions is limited

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveuser interactionVSAvoidability to modify results and perform additional functions
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSAdaptability or versatility

Solution Approach 1:

The system dynamically transitions between different operational states: from voice input mode to recognition result display mode, and further to modification mode when additional voice inputs are received. This dynamic state management allows the interface to adapt its functionality based on user needs, resolving the contradiction between ease of operation and adaptability.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

Solution Approach 2:

The system performs preliminary voice recognition and displays results before final confirmation or modification. This preliminary action allows users to review and potentially modify the recognition results, providing both ease of operation through immediate feedback and versatility through the option to modify or perform additional functions on the recognized content.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

2Adaptability or versatility

If multiple voice inputs are processed sequentially, then versatility of voice functions is improved, but processing time and system complexity increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveversatility of voice functionsVSAvoidprocessing time
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs preliminary voice recognition and displays results immediately after the first voice input, rather than waiting for all possible inputs. This preliminary action reduces processing time by providing immediate feedback, while still allowing users to add additional functions or modifications through subsequent voice inputs, thus maintaining versatility.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The system maintains continuous readiness to process additional voice inputs without requiring full re-processing of previous inputs. When a user provides additional voice input, the system efficiently combines it with the previously recognized content, maintaining continuity of useful action and reducing overall processing time while preserving functional versatility.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #20Continuity of useful action
