Parallel-Joystick Remote Control for Intuitive Horizontal Motion
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current remote control technologies for devices like unmanned aerial vehicles and model airplanes lack intuitive operation, as there is no visual correspondence between the rocker device's operation and the actual movement of the remotely controlled object, making user experience complex and poor.
Innovation Solution
A remote control design featuring a first rocker device with a joystick component that moves parallel to the body, generating remote control instructions to control the object's movement in a horizontal plane, and a second rocker device for vertical or rotational movements, with a processor and signal transmission device for intuitive and simple operation.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If a traditional rocker device is used for remote control, then the control function is achieved, but the operation becomes complex and lacks visual correspondence
Solution Approach 1:
The patent uses a visual display device to copy and show the actual movement state of the remotely controlled object on a screen. This visual feedback creates a direct correspondence between the object's movement and what the user sees, making the operation intuitive and eliminating the complexity of traditional rocker controls without visual feedback.
Solution Approach 2:
The system implements real-time visual feedback by displaying the movement state of the remotely controlled object on a screen. This feedback loop allows the user to see the direct result of their control inputs, creating an intuitive connection between operation and outcome, thereby simplifying the control experience.
2Ease of operation
If visual feedback is added to show object movement, then operational intuitiveness is improved, but device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent integrates multiple functions into a single remote control device: the control unit both receives user input for controlling the object's movement and processes/displayes the visual feedback of that movement. This multi-functionality adds visual correspondence without requiring a separate feedback device, thereby limiting the increase in system complexity.
Solution Approach 2:
The control unit is designed to perform both control signal generation and visual feedback display functions. By merging these functions into one integrated unit rather than using separate components, the system achieves visual correspondence while minimizing the increase in overall device complexity.

AI summary
The present invention relates to the field of remote control technologies, and provides a remote control, including: a body, a first rocker device, a processor, and a signal transmission device. A first joystick component of the first rocker device may move in parallel relative to the body. The processor is connected to the first rocker device, and when the first joystick component moves in parallel relative to the body, the processor generates a remote control instruction, where the remote control instruction is used to control a movable object to move in a horizontal plane of the movable object. The signal transmission device is connected to the processor, and used to receive the remote control instruction generated by the processor, and send the remote control instruction to the movable object. In the remote control of the present invention, when the first joystick component moves in parallel relative to the body, the processor generates a remote control instruction, where the remote control instruction is used to control the movable object to move in a horizontal plane of the movable object, and the parallel moving direction of the first joystick component may be set to correspond to the moving direction of the movable object in the horizontal plane of the movable object, so that the operation of the remote control is intuitive and simple.
