Solution Overview

Problem

Existing remote consultation systems lack real-time control of consultation devices and efficient data transmission with hospital systems, leading to low efficiency and high costs.

Innovation Solution

A method for remote consultation that enables real-time control of consultation devices and real-time data transmission with hospital systems, using a consultation management terminal, server, and computer-readable storage medium to manage and control multimedia data reproduction, imaging, and sound acquisition, and establish consultation spaces.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Productivity

If remote consultation systems use traditional fax and telephone methods, then system complexity is reduced, but consultation efficiency and data transmission capability deteriorate

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveconsultation efficiencyVSAvoidsystem complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent introduces a consultation server as an intermediary component that mediates between consultation devices and hospital systems. The server receives control information from consultation devices, processes it, and transmits appropriate commands to control multimedia reproduction, imaging, and sound acquisition devices. This intermediary architecture enables efficient real-time control and data transmission while maintaining manageable system complexity through centralized management.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

2Reliability

If real-time control of consultation devices is implemented, then consultation effectiveness is improved, but device complexity and control complexity increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveconsultation effectivenessVSAvoidcontrol complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The consultation server is designed as a universal control platform that handles multiple functions including controlling multimedia reproduction apparatus, imaging apparatus, sound acquiring apparatus, and managing consultation spaces. By consolidating these diverse control functions into a single multi-functional server, the system achieves real-time control capability without proportionally increasing overall complexity, as the server manages all functions through unified protocols and interfaces.

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

3Loss of information

If real-time data transmission with hospital systems is enabled, then information availability is improved, but network bandwidth consumption and system load increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveinformation availabilityVSAvoidnetwork bandwidth consumption
Core Design Contradiction:
Loss of informationVSLoss of energy

Solution Approach 1:

The patent extracts and transmits only the essential control information and consultation data between the consultation server and hospital systems, rather than transmitting all possible data. The server selectively extracts relevant patient information, consultation records, and control commands for real-time transmission, reducing unnecessary network traffic while maintaining complete information availability for consultation purposes.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #2Taking out (Extraction)
