Terminal Content Card Switching for Menu Navigation Bottlenecks
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Users face inefficiency and inconvenience when accessing application functions on terminal devices, as they often require multiple operations to find and use desired functions, which are hidden in multi-level menus.
Innovation Solution
A method and device that display content cards associated with application functions directly on the terminal device screen, allowing users to switch between them based on preset conditions, such as user input or automatic switching, to simplify access to frequently used functions.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Device complexity
If application functions are organized in multi-level menus, then device complexity is reduced and functions are systematically organized, but user operation time increases and access efficiency decreases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent extracts frequently used application functions from the multi-level menu structure and displays them directly on the screen as content cards. This allows users to access these functions without navigating through multiple menu levels, significantly reducing operation time while maintaining the organized menu structure for less frequently used functions.
Solution Approach 2:
The system performs preliminary action by automatically displaying relevant application function content cards on the screen based on preset conditions (such as user behavior patterns, time of day, or application usage frequency). This anticipates user needs and presents relevant functions before the user has to search for them, reducing access time while keeping the full menu structure intact.
2Loss of time
If application functions are displayed directly on the screen, then user operation time is reduced and access efficiency is improved, but device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements a dynamic display system where content cards showing application functions are automatically updated and switched based on preset conditions. The system can adapt to different user scenarios, time periods, and usage patterns, dynamically presenting the most relevant functions. This dynamic approach allows the system to manage increased complexity through intelligent automation rather than static, hard-coded interfaces.
Solution Approach 2:
The content card display system serves multiple functions: it acts as an application launcher, a user behavior analyzer, a time-based scheduler, and a screen manager all in one. By making the display system multi-functional and integrating these capabilities into a unified architecture, the patent manages the increased complexity through functional consolidation rather than adding separate systems.
3Adaptability or versatility
If multi-level menu navigation is used, then comprehensive function coverage is achieved, but user convenience deteriorates due to multiple operations required
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments the application functions into two categories: frequently used functions are displayed as content cards on the main screen for quick access, while less frequently used functions remain in the organized multi-level menu structure. This segmentation allows users to access common functions with a single tap while preserving the comprehensive and organized menu system for specialized functions, thereby improving convenience without sacrificing function coverage.

AI summary
Embodiments of the present disclosure provide a method and a device for training an acoustic model, a terminal device and a storage medium. The method includes: displaying a content card associated with an application function on a screen of a terminal device; and performing a switching operation on the content card currently displayed on the screen when detecting that a preset switching condition is satisfied.
