Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current data transmission methods between electronic devices, particularly using touch screens, are inconvenient as they require manual selection and input, which can be inefficient and cumbersome, especially with the growth of portable terminals and wireless communication technologies.
Innovation Solution
A method and system that generates information about selected data on a touch screen, including session identifiers and device IDs, which is transmitted through a data transmission object to facilitate efficient data transfer between devices, allowing for direct transmission of requested data without the need for manual input on each device.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If manual selection and input methods are used for data transmission, then data can be transmitted between electronic devices, but the operation becomes inconvenient and time-consuming
Solution Approach 1:
The patent introduces a data transmission object (such as a stylus or wireless communication device) as an intermediary between the first electronic device and the second electronic device. This intermediary carries transmission information including session identifiers and device identifiers, enabling automatic data transmission without manual selection or input operations on each device, thereby resolving the contradiction between ease of operation and time consumption.
Solution Approach 2:
The system performs preliminary actions by pre-establishing session identifiers and device identifiers before actual data transmission. The transmission information is prepared in advance with all necessary identification data, so that when transmission is initiated, the process can proceed automatically without requiring manual selection or input operations during the transmission itself.
2Productivity
If traditional data transmission protocols are used, then data can be transmitted between devices, but the process requires multiple steps including selection, extraction from memory, and input verification
Solution Approach 1:
The patent extracts only the essential transmission information (session identifier and device identifier) from the complete data set and transmits this condensed information through the data transmission object. This extraction approach simplifies the transmission process by eliminating the need for manual selection, memory extraction, and input verification steps, thereby improving productivity while reducing process complexity.
Solution Approach 2:
Instead of transmitting the actual data content through multiple verification steps, the system creates a copy of the transmission metadata (session ID and device ID) and transmits this copy through the intermediary. The actual data transmission is then triggered automatically based on this copied information, streamlining the process and improving efficiency.
Data Source
AI summary
A method and a system for transmitting data are provided. The method comprises generating information about each of the at least one data corresponding to selection of the at least one data displayed on a first touch screen by the first electronic device, transmitting the information to a stylus for transmitting the image from the first electronic device to a second electronic device via the stylus, and directly transmitting the image from the first electronic device to the second electronic device by the request of the second electronic device, and storing the information transmitting the information to the second electronic device by the stylus. The information includes at least one session Identifier (ID) indicating a selected order of the at least one data and a device ID of the first electronic device.
