Solution Overview

Problem

Existing content delivery systems for public transportation, such as electric trains, often fail to provide content that aligns with users' preferences, resulting in insufficient user entertainment.

Innovation Solution

An information processing device and method that acquires and associates content output information from shared moving objects with user action and movement schedules, allowing for personalized content recommendations and pre-use music adjustments.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If content is delivered to users based on estimated boarding time, then users can access content during their travel, but the content may not align with user preferences resulting in insufficient entertainment

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecontent adaptability to user preferenceVSAvoiduser entertainment satisfaction
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs preliminary actions by acquiring user action schedules and movement schedules in advance, before content delivery. This allows the system to pre-process and match content with user preferences and travel patterns, ensuring that the delivered content is both timely and personalized, thereby resolving the contradiction between content adaptability and user satisfaction

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The system implements feedback mechanisms by continuously acquiring user action schedules and comparing them with movement schedules of shared moving objects. This feedback loop enables the system to refine content recommendations based on actual user behavior patterns, improving content adaptability while maintaining reliable user entertainment satisfaction

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

2Adaptability or versatility

If the system acquires and processes user action schedules and movement schedules for personalized content delivery, then content adaptation to user preference improves, but system complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecontent personalization capabilityVSAvoidinformation processing system complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The information processing device performs multiple functions using a unified approach: it acquires user action schedules, obtains movement schedules of shared moving objects, matches them together, and delivers personalized content. This multi-functional design achieves high content adaptability while managing system complexity by consolidating operations into a single integrated device rather than separate specialized systems

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)
