Mobile Device Vibration Intensity Adjustment via Multi-Region Touch Detection
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Mobile electronic devices often disrupt quiet environments with continuous ringing or vibrating alerts, as existing methods fail to automatically adjust prompt intensities based on user interaction or movement.
Innovation Solution
A method and device that utilize multiple independent sensors and a processing unit to detect user touch or movement, reducing vibration or ringtone intensity without turning them off, ensuring alerts are adjusted in a user-friendly and timely manner.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If the mobile electronic device executes a vibration prompt corresponding to an event, then the user is notified of the event, but it may be a nuisance to other people in a conference or quiet environment
Solution Approach 1:
The patent changes the vibration intensity parameter based on detected touch conditions. When multiple detection regions are touched simultaneously, the system adjusts the vibration intensity from high to low, maintaining event notification while reducing disturbance to others in quiet environments
2Object-affected harmful factors
If the vibration intensity is reduced when multiple detection regions detect a touch, then the disturbance to others is minimized, but the alert functionality may be weakened
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements dynamic adjustment of vibration intensity based on real-time touch detection. The system transitions from a static high-intensity alert to a dynamic system that adapts intensity levels - maintaining high intensity for single-touch scenarios and reducing to low intensity for multi-region touch scenarios, ensuring alert functionality is preserved while minimizing disturbance

AI summary
A method of adjusting an event prompt degree and a mobile electronic device and a computer program product using the same are provided. In the present method, whether at least two detection regions of the mobile electronic device simultaneously detect a touch when the mobile electronic device executes a vibration prompt corresponding to an event is determined, wherein the detection regions are independent of each other. A vibration intensity of the vibration prompt is reduced when the detection regions simultaneously detect the touch. Thereby, continuous vibration prompt is prevented from bothering other people.
