Solution Overview

Problem

Traditional Command Line Interfaces (CLI) are limited in handling voice commands in different languages, failing to seamlessly accommodate users with language preferences different from the system's default settings.

Innovation Solution

A multilingual command line interface bot enabled with real-time language analysis, which monitors user input, detects the user's location and language, converts the input to a text string in the detected language, parses the text, recognizes command lines and parameters, and executes them accordingly.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Ease of operation

If traditional CLI is used, then system simplicity is maintained, but user accessibility and ease of operation deteriorate for users who prefer voice input or different languages

Engineering Contradiction:

Improveuser accessibilityVSAvoidsystem complexity

Core Design Contradiction:

Ease of operationVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent introduces an intermediary service (language analysis service) that mediates between the user's voice input and the CLI system. This service detects language, converts voice to text, and translates commands, allowing traditional CLI to gain multilingual voice capability without fundamentally rewriting the entire system architecture.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

Solution Approach 2:

The CLI system is enhanced to become universal by supporting multiple languages and both voice and text input modes through the integrated language analysis service, allowing a single system to serve diverse user needs without requiring separate systems for different languages.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)

2Ease of operation

If voice-to-CLI feature is implemented, then ease of operation improves for voice users, but ability to handle multiple languages deteriorates

Engineering Contradiction:

Improvevoice command capabilityVSAvoidmultilingual support

Core Design Contradiction:

Ease of operationVSAdaptability or versatility

Solution Approach 1:

The system dynamically adapts to different languages in real-time through the language analysis service, which detects the user's language and adjusts processing accordingly. This dynamic language detection and adaptation enables the voice-to-CLI feature to work seamlessly across multiple languages without requiring pre-configured language settings.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #15Dynamics

3Adaptability or versatility

If real-time language analysis is added, then adaptability to user language preferences improves, but processing time and system complexity increase

Engineering Contradiction:

Improvelanguage detection capabilityVSAvoidprocessing time

Core Design Contradiction:

Adaptability or versatilityVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The language analysis service performs preliminary actions by detecting the user's language and preparing appropriate translation and processing parameters before the actual command execution. This preliminary language identification and setup reduces the processing time during command execution by avoiding runtime language detection and preparation.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #10Preliminary action

AI summary

The input of a user is monitored and a location of the user and a language of the user are detected. The input is converted to a text string in the detected user language and the converted text string is parsed into parsed tokens. A command line and correlated parameters indicated by the input are recognized based on the parsed tokens. The recognized command line with the assigned parameters is executed.
