Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing monitoring systems, as described in Patent Document 1, may not sufficiently address the varying situations of observation targets, leading to inadequate monitoring.
Innovation Solution
An observation system comprising a portable relay device that communicates between a monitoring apparatus and a server, transmitting observation information, battery capacity data, and control signals, utilizing machine learning to identify data models and alerting on low battery conditions to ensure continuous monitoring.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If a monitoring band observation system is implemented using the technique from Patent Document 1, then basic monitoring functionality is achieved, but suitable monitoring cannot be sufficiently realized due to varying observation targets and situations
Solution Approach 1:
The system dynamically adapts to different observation targets and situations by collecting multiple types of information (observation information, apparatus information, relay device information) and processing them flexibly through the server, allowing the monitoring approach to change based on the specific target and context rather than using a fixed monitoring method
Solution Approach 2:
The monitoring band apparatus is designed with multiple detection functions to collect various types of observation information, and the server provides universal processing capabilities that can handle different observation targets (elderly people, loitering persons, etc.) and situations through a single integrated system
2Area of stationary object
If communication is relayed through a portable relay device, then monitoring range is expanded, but battery capacity management becomes critical for continuous operation
Solution Approach 1:
The system implements feedback mechanisms by having both the apparatus and relay device transmit their remaining battery capacity information to the server, which then monitors and manages power levels to ensure continuous operation, alerting users when battery levels need attention
Solution Approach 2:
The system performs preliminary battery capacity monitoring and management by continuously tracking remaining battery capacity of both the apparatus and relay device before complete power depletion occurs, allowing proactive measures to be taken to maintain continuous operation
3Adaptability or versatility
If multiple apparatuses of different models are used for observation, then versatility is improved, but identification and data correspondence become more complex
Solution Approach 1:
The server acts as an intermediary that receives apparatus identification information from the relay device, identifies the apparatus model, and determines which observation information corresponds to which apparatus, thereby managing the complexity of multiple different models without requiring complex handling at the apparatus level
Data Source
AI summary
An observation system is provided. The monitoring-band observation system is formed by a monitoring band 1, a smartphone 2, and a server 3. A monitored target and a monitoring person are alerted under the condition that the remaining battery capacity of the monitoring band 1 or the smartphone 2 is equal to or less than a predetermined reference value.
