Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing systems face challenges in setting an optimal report rate for peripheral electronic devices, balancing sensitivity and power consumption, and making this setting accessible to users, as traditional methods are cumbersome and require manual intervention.
Innovation Solution
An electronic system with a processing unit that automatically sets the report rate based on the type of software program executed, computes operation frequency statistics, or allows manual user input through a control command, using a transmitting interface to optimize sensitivity and power consumption.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Measurement precision
If the report rate is increased to improve sensitivity, then the sensitivity is improved, but the power consumption increases
Solution Approach 1:
The report rate is made dynamically adjustable based on the executed software program. The processing unit automatically sets different report rates according to the type of software being run, allowing the system to adapt between high sensitivity (for games) and low power consumption (for office work) scenarios
Solution Approach 2:
The report rate parameter is changed based on the software program type. The system identifies the software category (game, office, multimedia) and adjusts the report rate parameter accordingly, transforming a static parameter into a context-dependent variable that optimizes both sensitivity and power consumption
2Use of energy by moving object
If the report rate is decreased to reduce power consumption, then the power consumption is reduced, but the sensitivity decreases
Solution Approach 1:
The system dynamically adjusts the report rate based on software type, allowing low power consumption modes for office applications while maintaining high sensitivity when needed for gaming or multimedia applications
Solution Approach 2:
The report rate parameter is modified according to the executed software program, enabling the system to switch between power-saving settings for office work and high-performance settings for games, thus optimizing the balance between power consumption and sensitivity
3Ease of operation
If manual report rate setting interface is provided to improve ease of operation, then the ease of operation is improved, but the device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The system provides self-service by automatically detecting the software program type and setting the appropriate report rate without user intervention. This eliminates the need for complex manual interfaces while maintaining ease of operation through automatic adaptation
Solution Approach 2:
The processing unit continuously monitors the executed software program and provides feedback to automatically adjust the report rate. This feedback mechanism enables the system to adapt to changing usage scenarios without requiring manual user input or complex interface configurations
