Solution Overview

Problem

Existing terminal browsing methods, such as using timestamps or sliders, are cumbersome and complex, failing to achieve automatic browsing and reducing the intelligence of terminals.

Innovation Solution

An automatic browsing method that utilizes touch operations on specific regions of the display to trigger and adjust browsing direction and speed, combined with sliding operations to refine the browsing experience, allowing for automatic and precise control of interface navigation.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Ease of operation

If timestamp or slider is used for browsing, then browsing operation complexity is reduced, but automatic browsing is not achieved and terminal intelligence is reduced

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvebrowsing operation complexityVSAvoidautomatic browsing capability
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSExtent of automation

Solution Approach 1:

The terminal automatically switches between interfaces based on detected sliding operations without requiring manual intervention. The system serves itself by autonomously navigating through content while the user simply provides directional guidance through sliding gestures, eliminating the need for timestamps or sliders while achieving true automation.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

Solution Approach 2:

The browsing speed and behavior are dynamically adjusted based on the sliding operation characteristics. The terminal adapts its interface switching rate and navigation patterns in real-time according to user gestures, transforming static browsing into a dynamic, responsive experience that balances automation with user control.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

2Measurement precision

If manual touch operation is used for interface switching, then browsing control is precise, but browsing operation becomes cumbersome

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvebrowsing control precisionVSAvoidbrowsing operation convenience
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The sliding operation serves as an intermediary between manual control and automatic execution. Instead of directly switching interfaces with touch gestures or using complex sliders, the user performs a simple sliding action that the system translates into precise interface navigation, bridging the gap between user intent and system action.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

Solution Approach 2:

The patent replaces traditional mechanical browsing mechanisms (timestamps, sliders, direct touch switching) with a gesture-based system. The sliding operation is detected and converted into automated interface switching commands, substituting complex mechanical interaction patterns with a simpler, more intuitive gesture that the system automatically processes.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #28Mechanics substitution (Replace mechanical system)

AI summary

Embodiments of the present application disclose an automatic browsing method, a terminal, and a computer-readable storage medium. The method comprises: in response to a first touch operation corresponding to a first area and a second area of a display screen, determining a touch parameter of the first touch operation; when the touch parameter meets a trigger condition, displaying a current interface and a related interface of the current interface on the basis of a preset direction and a preset speed; detecting a sliding operation in a third area and determining the sliding direction and sliding distance of the sliding operation, the third area being an area of the display screen comprising the first area and/or the second area; and adjusting the preset speed and preset direction according to the sliding direction and sliding distance, and displaying the current interface and the related interface on the basis of the adjusted speed and the adjusted direction.
