Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing projector scheduling systems are inflexible, unable to meet diverse user requirements, and lack product differentiation due to reliance on time as the sole trigger condition.
Innovation Solution
A method and system for controlling projectors that allow users to create diverse and flexible trigger rules by combining various elements, enabling more sophisticated action execution beyond time-based triggers.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Extent of automation
If time-based scheduling system is used, then the projector can execute automated actions, but the architecture is inflexible and limits functions during use
Solution Approach 1:
The patent transforms the static time-based trigger into a dynamic multi-dimensional trigger system that can adapt to different scenarios. The trigger conditions now include device status, environmental parameters, user behavior, and time, allowing the system to dynamically select and combine different trigger types based on actual needs, thereby resolving the contradiction between automation and flexibility.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent creates a universal trigger mechanism that can serve multiple functions beyond simple time-based scheduling. The same trigger framework supports device status monitoring, environmental response, user behavior recognition, and time-based automation, making the system multi-functional and highly adaptable to various use cases.
2Extent of automation
If time-based scheduling system is used, then automated actions can be executed, but requirements of different users in different scenarios cannot be met
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments the monolithic time-based trigger into multiple independent trigger dimensions (device status, environmental parameters, user behavior, time). Each dimension can be independently configured and combined, allowing users to create customized trigger conditions that specific to their requirements while maintaining automated execution capabilities.
Solution Approach 2:
The system dynamically adapts to different user scenarios by allowing flexible combination of trigger types. Users can configure different trigger conditions based on their specific needs, and the system dynamically evaluates multiple trigger dimensions to determine when to execute actions, thereby fulfilling diverse user requirements.
3Extent of automation
If time-based scheduling system is used, then simple automation is achieved, but there is no product differentiation
Solution Approach 1:
The patent combines multiple trigger types (device status, environmental parameters, user behavior, time) into a composite trigger system. This composite approach creates a more sophisticated and differentiated product capability that goes beyond simple time-based scheduling, enabling the projector to respond to complex multi-dimensional conditions and execute intelligent automated actions.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent adds multiple new dimensions to the traditional one-dimensional time-based trigger. By incorporating device status, environmental parameters, and user behavior dimensions, the system creates a multi-dimensional trigger space that enables more sophisticated automation scenarios and provides significant product differentiation.

AI summary
The invention provides a method and a system for controlling a projector. The control method includes: obtaining a first trigger rule and a first to-be-executed action corresponding to the first trigger rule. The first trigger rule and the first to-be-executed action respectively include at least one of a plurality of combinable elements. The control method includes: determining whether the first trigger rule is satisfied and controlling the projector to execute the first to-be-executed action when the first trigger rule is determined as being satisfied. The control system includes a projector and a control device configured to execute the control method. The control method and system of the invention provide more diverse and flexible rules and action generation mechanisms, thereby implementing effects of product differentiation and intelligent operation.
