Remote Document Control via Browser Synchronization
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
User terminals often face compatibility issues with different data formats during document presentation, leading to ineffective presentation and the need for users to operate from the same terminal, limiting flexibility and presentation quality.
Innovation Solution
A method and system that allow a first user terminal to send operation instructions to a second user terminal, enabling the second terminal to control and present document data, even if it's in a different format, through browser application synchronization and plug-in compatibility, ensuring seamless operation across various formats.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If a user terminal performs presentation locally without remote control capability, then operation simplicity is maintained, but user flexibility and presentation quality deteriorate
Solution Approach 1:
The system divides the presentation control function into two independent parts: a first user terminal for operation input and a second user terminal for document display. This segmentation allows the user to operate from one device while the presentation displays on another, enhancing flexibility without complicating the operation interface.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent introduces an intermediary mechanism (instruction transmission module) that bridges the first user terminal and the second user terminal. This intermediary enables remote control by transmitting operation instructions between terminals, allowing flexible presentation control without requiring the user to be physically present at the display terminal.
2Adaptability or versatility
If the presentation terminal must have specific applications installed to handle different document formats, then document format compatibility improves, but device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The second user terminal is designed with universal document display capability that can handle multiple document formats without requiring specific applications. The terminal acts as a universal display device that receives and presents documents from various sources in different formats, eliminating the need for format-specific software installations.
Solution Approach 2:
Instead of requiring the presentation terminal to natively support all document formats through multiple applications, the system copies the document data from the user's terminal to the presentation terminal for display. This allows the presentation terminal to function as a universal display without needing to install specific applications for each document type.
3Reliability
If the user must be present at the presentation terminal to operate document data, then operation reliability is maintained, but productivity deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The system segments the operation function from the display function, allowing the user to operate from a remote terminal while the presentation occurs on a separate terminal. This enables the user to continue working at their original terminal without needing to physically move to the presentation terminal, thereby improving productivity while maintaining operational reliability through the established communication link.
Solution Approach 2:
The system implements real-time feedback mechanisms where operation instructions sent from the first user terminal are immediately reflected on the second user terminal's display. This feedback loop ensures operational reliability by confirming that remote commands are executed correctly, while simultaneously improving productivity by eliminating the need for physical presence at the presentation terminal.
Data Source
AI summary
The present disclosure provides a method and system for operating and controlling data, and a user terminal. The method includes: obtaining, by a first user terminal, an operation instruction entered for document data in a first browser application of the first user terminal; obtaining, by the first user terminal, instruction information corresponding to the operation instruction; sending, by the first user terminal, the instruction information to a second user terminal based on the first browser application of the first user terminal; receiving, by the second user terminal, the instruction information sent by the first user terminal; obtaining, by the second user terminal, an operational control instruction corresponding to the instruction information; and operating, by the second user terminal according to the operational control instruction, the document data in a second browser application of the second user terminal.
