Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing hardware apparatus connection methods are inefficient due to reliance on manual selection and lack of convenient, efficient connection modes.
Innovation Solution
An apparatus connection method that utilizes pre-stored authentication information and signal parameters to automatically switch between connection modes, enabling direct and high-speed connections using Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, or combined links, and reducing user operations.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Productivity
If manual selection is used to connect to hardware apparatus, then connection can be established, but connection efficiency is low
Solution Approach 1:
The system automatically detects available connection modes and selects the optimal one without requiring manual user input. The mobile apparatus autonomously identifies the hardware apparatus, evaluates connection modes (first connection mode for high-speed data transfer, second connection mode for control), and establishes the connection automatically, making the system self-serve the connection establishment process.
Solution Approach 2:
The system pre-stores authentication information and pre-evaluates connection modes before actual connection is needed. When a hardware apparatus is detected, the mobile apparatus has already prepared the authentication credentials and connection parameters, enabling rapid connection establishment without delays for manual configuration or information input.
2Speed
If first connection mode is used for high-speed download, then download speed is improved, but connection complexity increases due to mode switching
Solution Approach 1:
The system dynamically switches between connection modes based on real-time task requirements. The mobile apparatus automatically transitions from the second connection mode (for control) to the first connection mode (for high-speed data transfer) when aerial photography images need to be downloaded, and switches back when control tasks are required. This dynamic adaptation optimizes performance for each specific operation without requiring permanent complex configuration.
Solution Approach 2:
The system design integrates multiple connection modes within a single unified connection framework. The same mobile apparatus can handle both control functions (second connection mode) and high-speed data transfer (first connection mode) through a single integrated system that automatically selects the appropriate mode, eliminating the need for separate dedicated systems for each function.

AI summary
An apparatus connection method includes, in response to a mobile apparatus entering a preset mode, detecting one or more connectable apparatuses near the mobile apparatus that are capable of connecting to the mobile apparatus in a first connection mode, determining the UAV from the one or more connectable apparatuses according to a signal parameter of a broadcast signal sent by each of the one or more connectable apparatuses, and communicatively connecting to the UAV according to the first connection mode. The first connection mode is different from a second connection mode for controlling the UAV to perform an aerial photography task and receiving a compressed image sent by the UAV while performing the aerial photography task. A download speed of the first connection mode is greater than a download speed of the second connection mode.
