Solution Overview

Problem

Existing robot technologies face inefficiencies in task processing due to the inability to timely respond to abnormalities, leading to interruptions and reduced processing efficiency.

Innovation Solution

A method and apparatus for task processing in robots, which includes displaying task-associated information and abnormality reporting controls on a screen, allowing for the selection and reporting of abnormal tasks, and sending associated information to a target terminal for timely response.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Productivity

If the robot processes tasks without an abnormality reporting mechanism, then the device complexity is reduced, but the productivity decreases due to inability to timely respond to abnormalities

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvetask processing efficiencyVSAvoidsystem complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent implements a feedback mechanism where the robot detects task abnormalities, reports them to a terminal device, and receives responses. This closed-loop feedback system enables timely response to abnormalities, improving task processing efficiency without significantly increasing system complexity through the use of existing communication infrastructure.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

2Reliability

If the robot implements comprehensive task monitoring and reporting, then the reliability of task processing is improved, but the device complexity increases due to additional controls and reporting mechanisms

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvetask processing reliabilityVSAvoidinterface complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The robot autonomously monitors its own task execution, automatically detects abnormalities, and initiates reporting without external intervention. This self-service approach improves reliability by ensuring continuous monitoring while avoiding the complexity of external monitoring systems and additional user interface controls.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

3Productivity

If the robot continuously monitors tasks for abnormalities, then the productivity is improved through timely response, but the use of energy increases due to continuous operation of monitoring and communication systems

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvetask processing efficiencyVSAvoidenergy consumption
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSUse of energy by moving object

Solution Approach 1:

Instead of continuous monitoring, the system periodically checks for abnormalities during task execution and activates reporting only when needed. This periodic action maintains productivity by ensuring abnormalities are detected timely while reducing energy consumption by keeping monitoring and communication systems dormant during normal operation.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #19Periodic action

AI summary

Embodiments of the present disclosure provide a method and apparatus, an electronic device, and a storage medium for task processing. The method is applied to a robot and includes: displaying at least one display control and an abnormality reporting control on a display screen of the robot, where the display control is configured to display task-associated information of a task to be processed; displaying an abnormal task selection page in response to a trigger operation for the abnormality reporting control, to determine a target abnormal task based on a trigger operation on the abnormal task selection page, where the abnormal task selection page includes the at least one display control; and sending task-associated information and abnormality information of the target abnormal task to a target terminal in response to a trigger operation of uploading the target abnormal task.
