Solution Overview
Problem
Current communication technologies in virtual worlds and websites require users to be identified and connected to initiate communication, limiting spontaneous interactions between users without prior identification or connection.
Innovation Solution
A system that collects user parameters, calculates a distance based on these parameters, and establishes communication when the distance reaches a predetermined threshold, allowing users to connect automatically without needing to be identified or actively connected, using means such as application software modules or pre-programmed electronic chips.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If users are required to be identified and connected to initiate communication, then communication reliability is improved, but spontaneous communication between users is limited
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs preliminary actions by continuously collecting user parameters and calculating distances between users in advance, so that when users meet the communication threshold, communication can be established immediately without requiring prior identification or connection actions
Solution Approach 2:
The system enables self-service communication establishment by automatically detecting when users meet the distance threshold and initiating communication protocols without requiring user intervention for identification or connection setup
2Stability of the object's composition
If users must be connected to instant messaging software to start communication, then communication stability is improved, but ease of operation deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The invention extracts the communication initiation function from the instant messaging software connection requirement, allowing communication to be started through the terminal itself without needing to be connected to or identified by the messaging software
Solution Approach 2:
The terminal is given universal communication capability, allowing it to both initiate and receive communications directly without requiring connection to specific communication software, making the terminal itself sufficient for communication operations
3Adaptability or versatility
If automatic connection is enabled based on geographical location, then spontaneous communication is improved, but device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The system uses parameter changes by collecting user parameters and calculating distance metrics to determine when automatic connection should be established, replacing complex rule-based systems with simpler threshold-based parameter comparison

AI summary
The system has a sub-collection system (101) for collecting a parameter e.g. geo-location parameter, representing characteristics of a user. Distance calculation and call generation sub system (103) calculates distance between the parameter and another parameter corresponding to another user. The sub system (103) includes an acquisition module (1033) for acquisition of linking rules of users based on previously realized linking. Call managing and presenting system (104) establishes communication between two terminals when the distance attains a predetermined threshold. Independent claims are also included for the following: (1) a method for establishing a communication between terminals held by users in a communication network (2) a computer program product downloadable from a communication network and/or stored on a medium readable by a computer and/or executed by a microprocessor, comprising program code instructions for executing a method for establishing communication between terminals of users.
