Remote-Control State Selection in Moving Object Order Fulfillment
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current order placement systems for remotely controlled moving objects do not allow clients to select the remote control state (enabled or disabled) during the ordering process, failing to meet individual client demands for the state of the moving objects.
Innovation Solution
An order placement/order acceptance system that includes a display control unit to show an order screen allowing selection of remote control state and a transmission unit to send order information, enabling clients to choose whether the moving object is delivered with remote control enabled or disabled, and a disabling command unit to switch the state as needed.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If the order placement system provides a fixed delivery state for moving objects, then the system complexity is reduced, but the adaptability to different client demands deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements dynamic configuration of the moving object's operational state by allowing the remote control function to be switched between enabled and disabled states. The control unit receives client specifications and dynamically adjusts the delivery state accordingly, transforming a static system into a dynamic one that adapts to varying client requirements without fundamental system redesign
Solution Approach 2:
The patent changes the operational parameter of the moving object by introducing a selectable state parameter (remote control enabled/disabled). This parameter change allows the same moving object to be delivered in different configurations based on client demand, achieving versatility through parameter variation rather than physical modification
2Adaptability or versatility
If the order placement system adds state selection functionality, then the adaptability to client demands is improved, but the ease of operation deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments the ordering process into distinct steps: basic order information input, state selection (remote control enabled/disabled), and confirmation. This segmentation isolates the additional complexity to a specific module, allowing the rest of the system to remain simple and easy to operate while still providing the needed adaptability
3Productivity
If the system automatically switches the remote control state, then the productivity of order fulfillment is improved, but the reliability of state control deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The patent incorporates feedback mechanisms where the control unit receives explicit client specifications regarding the desired remote control state and confirms the switching action. This feedback loop ensures that the automatic state switching accurately reflects client intentions, maintaining reliability while improving productivity through automation
Solution Approach 2:
The patent performs preliminary verification of the desired state during the ordering process before executing the state switch. By validating the client's state selection preference in advance and preparing the appropriate configuration, the system ensures accurate state control while maintaining efficient automated fulfillment

AI summary
An order placement/order acceptance system includes: an order placement device that places an order of a moving object moved by remote control in manufacturing process; and an order acceptance device that accepts order of the moving object. The order placement device includes display control unit that causes display device to display an order screen for accepting order of moving object, and enables selection of whether to desire delivery of moving object in an enabled state where remote control is accepted or to desire the delivery of the moving object in a disabled state where remote control is not accepted, and a transmission unit that transmits order information including contents selected via order screen. The order acceptance device includes a reception unit that receives the order information, and a disabling command unit that transmits to the moving object a disabling command for switching the enabled state to the disabled state.
