Touchscreen Standby Interface for Mobile Terminal Function Access
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Mobile terminals face inconvenience due to the need for multiple dedicated keys to access various functions, and users struggle to access information without familiarity with terminal manipulations, as existing solutions are limited in providing instant access to functions beyond basic operations like digital broadcast reception and camera use.
Innovation Solution
Implementing a graphic user interface on the display unit that allows users to interact with applications and services directly from the standby screen, enabling touch inputs to execute functions and change display styles and information based on screen region shifts, thereby utilizing the display as both an input and output device.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If multiple dedicated keys are installed to provide instant access to various functions, then function accessibility is improved, but device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The display unit is designed to serve multiple functions: it acts as both an information display device and an input device. By displaying graphical user interfaces that respond to touch inputs, the display unit replaces the need for multiple dedicated keys, allowing users to access various functions through the touchscreen interface while maintaining a simple device structure.
2Ease of operation
If the display unit is used as an input device with graphical user interface, then ease of operation is improved, but manufacturing precision requirements increase
Solution Approach 1:
The patent merges the display unit and touch input functionality into a single integrated component. The display unit displays graphical user interfaces while simultaneously serving as the input device through touch sensing, eliminating the need for separate physical keys and reducing manufacturing complexity while improving ease of operation.
