Solution Overview

Problem

Existing electronic device detectors fail to accurately detect and protect privacy when the device's position, angle, or shape changes, leading to ineffective data privacy protection.

Innovation Solution

A control method and device that monitor pose change information of an electronic device and adjust the operating parameters of a target detector to ensure accurate detection data, using sensors and control assemblies to adapt detection regions and power consumption based on the device's pose changes.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Measurement precision

If a detector is set at a fixed position or angle to perform data detection, then the detector can perform detection at a stable location, but when the position, angle, or shape of the electronic device changes, the detector cannot detect the data accurately or at all

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedetection accuracyVSAvoidadaptability to pose changes
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSAdaptability or versatility

Solution Approach 1:

The detector is configured to move or adjust its detection region dynamically based on the pose changes of the electronic device. The controller receives pose information from sensors (accelerometer, gyroscope, etc.) and adjusts the detector's detection region accordingly, making the system adaptive rather than static.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

Solution Approach 2:

The system uses feedback from pose detection sensors to continuously monitor the electronic device's position and angle changes. This feedback information is used by the controller to adjust the detector's operating parameters in real-time, ensuring accurate detection despite pose variations.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

2Measurement precision

If the detector adjusts its detection region to follow pose changes, then detection accuracy is maintained, but the device complexity increases due to additional control mechanisms

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedetection accuracyVSAvoidcontrol system complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The controller serves multiple functions: it processes pose information from sensors, determines appropriate detection region adjustments, and controls the detector's operating parameters. This multi-functionality reduces the need for separate dedicated components for each function.

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

Solution Approach 2:

The system uses the electronic device's own pose detection sensors (accelerometer, gyroscope) to provide the information needed for detector adjustment. The device essentially monitors itself and uses this self-information to control its detector, eliminating the need for external monitoring systems.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

3Area of stationary object

If multiple detectors are used to cover different positions and angles, then detection coverage is improved, but the loss of energy increases due to multiple detectors operating simultaneously

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedetection coverage areaVSAvoidpower consumption
Core Design Contradiction:
Area of stationary objectVSLoss of energy

Solution Approach 1:

Instead of having multiple detectors operating simultaneously, the system uses a single detector that dynamically adjusts its detection region based on pose changes. This dynamic adjustment provides continuous coverage without the energy cost of running multiple detectors at full capacity.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

Solution Approach 2:

The detector operates in a periodic manner, adjusting its detection region in response to pose changes rather than continuously scanning all possible regions. This periodic adjustment reduces energy consumption compared to continuous operation of multiple detectors.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #19Periodic action
