Remote Control Apparatus Continuous Swipe Direction Change
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current remote control systems using swipe and hold controls require temporary cancellation of contact to change swipe direction, leading to discontinuity and decreased operability, often resulting in incorrect command inputs.
Innovation Solution
A remote control apparatus that detects continuous contact and generates control commands based on positional relationships between contact starting and swipe points, allowing for seamless direction changes without contact cancellation, by determining the first and second swipe directions and transmitting corresponding commands to an electronic device.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If swipe direction is changed by temporary contact cancellation, then direction change is achieved, but control continuity is lost and operability decreases
Solution Approach 1:
The system maintains continuous contact detection throughout the swipe operation, allowing direction changes without contact cancellation. The control command generation continuously processes swipe point positions to determine direction changes, ensuring uninterrupted control flow and maintaining control continuity while enabling flexible direction changes.
Solution Approach 2:
The system dynamically adjusts swipe direction based on real-time positional relationships between contact starting point and current swipe point. The control command generation adapts to changing swipe trajectories by continuously calculating direction from positional data, enabling dynamic direction changes without requiring contact cancellation.
2Productivity
If contact is canceled at improper time, then swipe stops, but desired command input fails
Solution Approach 1:
The system provides continuous feedback by detecting swipe point positions and comparing them with the contact starting point to determine current swipe direction. This feedback mechanism allows the system to accurately determine when the user intends to stop swiping based on positional information, preventing premature or improper contact cancellation and ensuring accurate command input.
Solution Approach 2:
The system preliminarily determines the intended swipe direction and target position by continuously analyzing the positional relationship between contact starting point and swipe point. This preliminary analysis enables the system to anticipate the user's intended command before contact cancellation occurs, improving both accuracy and reliability of command input.

AI summary
Provided is a remote control apparatus which includes a display panel, a control detecting part for detecting a swipe of a contact point by a continuous contact control to the display panel, a command generating part for finding a first direction from a positional relationship between a contact starting point and a first swipe point swiped from the contact starting point, generating a control command indicating start of a swipe in the first direction, finding a second direction from a positional relationship between the contact starting point and a second swipe point swiped from the first swipe point, and generating a control command indicating stop of the swipe in the first direction and start of a swipe in the second direction in the case where the second direction differs from the first direction, and a command transmitting part for transmitting the generated control command to a television.
