Motion Sensing Mobile Terminal for Emotion Expression
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Conventional communication methods require multiple input operations for expressing emotions, leading to complexity and inefficiency in instant communication, particularly in applications like QQ chat, where users need to repeatedly input content and emotion indicators.
Innovation Solution
A mobile terminal equipped with a motion sensing unit, judging unit, generating unit, and transmitting unit that allows users to perform a single input operation to generate and transmit an operation instruction, enabling another terminal to vibrate or display content in a vibrated manner, thereby simplifying and enhancing emotional expression in communication.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If users perform multiple input operations to express emotion in instant communication, then the emotional expression can be accurately conveyed, but the input complexity and time consumption increase
Solution Approach 1:
The patent replaces manual mechanical input operations (typing, selecting icons) with motion sensing technology. The motion sensing unit detects physical movements (shaking, tapping) and automatically converts them into operation instructions, eliminating the need for complex manual input sequences to express emotions.
Solution Approach 2:
The system enables automatic emotion expression through motion detection. When a user performs a predetermined motion (like shaking the device), the judging unit automatically identifies the motion type and generates corresponding operation instructions without requiring the user to manually select emotion icons or re-type content.
2Productivity
If users repeatedly input content and emotion indicators in consecutive communications, then the communication can be maintained, but the input efficiency decreases
Solution Approach 1:
The motion sensing unit serves multiple functions: it detects different types of motions (shaking, tapping, sliding) that can correspond to different operations (vibration, display vibration, text input). This multi-functional detection capability allows a single input mechanism to replace multiple separate input operations needed for content and emotion expression.
Solution Approach 2:
The system pre-configures mappings between predetermined motions and operation instructions. When a motion is detected, the corresponding operation is automatically generated and transmitted, eliminating the need for repeated manual configuration and input in consecutive communications.
3Adaptability or versatility
If conventional input methods are used for instant communication, then the communication can be established, but the emotional expression becomes less vivid and engaging
Solution Approach 1:
The patent utilizes vibration as a core output mechanism. The another terminal performs vibration operations in response to motion-detected instructions, providing tactile feedback that enhances emotional expression. This vibration mechanism allows users to convey emotions more vividly through physical sensation rather than just text or static icons.
