Innovation Solution

A method and device for remotely controlling terminals that uses a management and control platform to obtain identity information through pattern code scanning, allowing for secure and efficient access by configuring authorized devices and using a proxy device for authentication and data transmission.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Productivity

If traditional remote control method requiring manual input of IP address and password is used, then users can establish connection to controlled device, but the process is time-consuming and laborious

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveremote control access efficiencyVSAvoidtime for manual information input
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs preliminary actions by pre-configuring device pairs and storing access information in advance. When remote control is needed, the pre-configured device pairing information is directly used without requiring manual input during the actual access operation, thus resolving the time-consuming manual input problem

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The patent uses QR codes as visual copies of device pairing information. Instead of manually typing IP addresses and passwords, users scan QR codes that contain encoded device identification information, converting manual text input into efficient visual recognition and copying

Inventive Principle:
Principle #26Copying

2Reliability

If traditional remote control method is used, then connection can be established, but security control is insufficient and unauthorized access may occur

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveaccess securityVSAvoidaccess control mechanism complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The system introduces a platform server as an intermediary between the user terminal and controlled device. The platform server verifies device pairing information, manages access permissions, and coordinates the connection process, providing centralized security control without requiring complex local security mechanisms at each endpoint

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

Solution Approach 2:

The system implements feedback mechanisms where the platform server verifies device pairing information and provides authentication results. The controlled device sends verification requests and receives authentication responses, creating a closed-loop security verification process that ensures authorized access while maintaining manageable complexity

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

3Measurement precision

If manual input method is used, then access information can be transmitted, but the process is prone to errors

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveaccuracy of access information transmissionVSAvoidoperational simplicity
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The patent replaces manual text input with QR code scanning. The QR code contains accurately encoded device identification information that is automatically copied and transmitted, eliminating manual typing errors while maintaining ease of operation through simple scan-and-connect actions

Inventive Principle:
Principle #26Copying

Solution Approach 2:

The system replaces the mechanical manual typing process with automated optical recognition and electronic data transmission. The QR code scanning mechanism substitutes manual keyboard input, automatically extracting and transmitting device information without human error-prone typing

Inventive Principle:
Principle #28Mechanics substitution (Replace mechanical system)

AI summary

An access processing method and apparatus for remotely controlling a terminal, and a storage medium. The method includes: obtaining identity information of a target user from a user terminal, returning a controllable device set corresponding to the target user to the user terminal based on the identity information, receiving, from the user terminal, a target device identifier selected from the controllable device set, and obtaining verification information of a target device indicated by the target device identifier, the verification information including: access information for accessing the target device, and controlling the verification information to be transmitted to the target device to allow, based on verification of the verification information passing, access and remote control on the target device.
