Smartwatch File Relay Through Mobile Phone Instruction Channels
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Users face complications in directly viewing and managing files from smartwatches on computers due to the need for multiple device connections and operations, particularly involving Bluetooth connections between smartwatches and mobile phones, which increases user interaction and reduces convenience.
Innovation Solution
A data transmission method that establishes an instruction channel between a first electronic device (e.g., a notebook computer) and a third electronic device (e.g., a smartwatch) through a second electronic device (e.g., a mobile phone), allowing direct data transfer without intermediate storage on the second device, thereby simplifying the process and reducing user operations.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If files are transferred from smartwatch to mobile phone and then to computer, then data can be accessed on computer, but the process becomes complicated and requires multiple user operations
Solution Approach 1:
The mobile phone serves as an intermediary device that establishes a relay connection between the smartwatch and computer. The system creates an instruction channel through the mobile phone, allowing the smartwatch to send files directly to the computer via the phone's communication interface, eliminating the need for manual transfer through each device while the phone maintains its role as a connecting mediator in the background
2Productivity
If Bluetooth connection is established between smartwatch and mobile phone, then data can be transmitted, but user operations increase and convenience decreases
Solution Approach 1:
The mobile phone pre-establishes Bluetooth connections with both the smartwatch and computer before file transfer is needed. The system prepares the communication channels in advance, so when the user initiates a file transfer, the connections are already in place and ready for immediate data transmission, eliminating the need for users to manually pair devices during the transfer process
Solution Approach 2:
The system automatically manages the Bluetooth connection establishment and maintenance between devices. The mobile phone autonomously handles connection protocols, data routing, and transmission coordination without requiring user intervention for each operation, allowing the system to serve itself in managing the complex connection logistics

AI summary
This application provides a data transmission method and system, which relate to the field of electronic devices, and can simplify a process in which a user views an internal file of a smartwatch on a computer. The method includes: A second electronic device establishes a connection with a third electronic device; the third electronic device sends first data to the second electronic device through the established connection; the second electronic device receives the first data and forwards the first data to a first electronic device; and the first electronic device receives and displays the first data.
