Solution Overview

Problem

Existing electronic transaction systems lack a mechanism to delay or cancel transactions when users make incorrect decisions during the confirmation process, leading to potential errors and unintended payments.

Innovation Solution

An electronic device and method that displays graphical user interfaces (GUIs) showing currency images, allowing users to interact with these interfaces through touch signals, providing dynamic currency images and visual effects, enabling users to confirm transactions more carefully by delaying the payment operation.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If a final confirmation message interface is provided before completing the electronic transaction, then the user is informed of the transaction details, but there is no mechanism to delay or cancel the transaction process

Engineering Contradiction:

Improvetransaction accuracyVSAvoidtransaction completion speed

Core Design Contradiction:

ReliabilityVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies preliminary action by displaying a currency image before the transaction is finalized. This allows the user to review the transaction amount in a visual format before confirming, providing a chance to detect and correct errors without delaying the overall process significantly. The currency image is shown as a preliminary visual confirmation step.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The patent introduces a currency image as an intermediary element between the transaction confirmation message and the final transaction completion. This intermediary visual representation serves as a mediating layer that enhances user awareness of the transaction amount without adding significant complexity or time to the process.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

2Productivity

If the electronic transaction process is completed quickly, then productivity is improved, but users may make incorrect decisions without adequate review time

Engineering Contradiction:

Improvetransaction processing speedVSAvoidtransaction decision accuracy

Core Design Contradiction:

ProductivityVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs a preliminary display of the currency image before finalizing the transaction. This preliminary visual presentation gives users a brief moment to review the transaction amount in an intuitive format, improving decision accuracy without significantly impacting processing speed.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The patent implements a periodic display mechanism where the currency image is shown for a specific duration during the transaction flow. This periodic presentation ensures users have adequate review time at a critical point in the process while maintaining overall transaction efficiency.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #19Periodic action
