Voice-Activated App Launch With Multimedia During Startup
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
The starting of application programs on electronic devices via voice instructions is undiversified, leading to degraded user experience due to direct initiation without additional context or multimedia output, and the time spent waiting for the screen to display can be perceived as inefficient.
Innovation Solution
A method and system that determines instruction information to assist in starting an application program, accompanied by multimedia information such as video, PowerPoint, or audio, to enhance the user experience during the initiation process, utilizing voice recognition and Natural Language Processing (NLP) to identify the intended application and provide contextual multimedia output.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If application programs are started directly via voice instructions, then the starting process is simple and fast, but the user experience is degraded due to lack of diversity and multimedia output
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies dynamics by making the starting process adaptive and variable. Instead of a fixed direct-start mechanism, the system dynamically selects different starting modes (direct start, multimedia preview, assistant interaction) based on user preferences, application type, and context. This transforms a static voice-command system into a dynamic multi-mode interface that maintains simplicity while adding versatility.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent implements universality by designing a voice instruction system that can perform multiple functions: direct application launching, multimedia content preview, assistant service invocation, and customizable workflow initiation. A single voice command interface serves multiple purposes, allowing users to choose different interaction modes depending on their needs, thus resolving the contradiction between simplicity and diversity.
2Speed
If application programs are started directly without multimedia output, then the starting speed is fast, but the perceived wait time is increased due to screen display delays
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies continuity of useful action by ensuring that during the application startup process, the system continuously provides useful output to the user. Instead of leaving the screen blank during the wait period, the system plays multimedia content (videos, images, audio) related to the application or assistant services. This maintains user engagement and makes the wait time productive, effectively resolving the contradiction between fast startup and reduced perceived wait time.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent implements preliminary action by preparing and outputting multimedia content during the application startup process. The system pre-loads and displays relevant multimedia materials while the application is initializing, so that when the application becomes fully operational, the user has already been entertained or informed. This preliminary multimedia output fills the gap during the startup delay, reducing the perceived wait time without compromising actual starting speed.
3Ease of operation
If voice instructions are used to start application programs, then the operation convenience is improved, but the user experience is degraded due to undiversified starting methods
Solution Approach 1:
The patent makes the voice instruction system dynamic by allowing users to switch between different starting modes (direct launch, multimedia preview, assistant interaction) based on their current needs. The system adapts its behavior dynamically, maintaining the convenience of voice commands while providing diverse interaction options, thus resolving the contradiction between operation convenience and method diversity.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent applies segmentation by dividing the voice instruction starting process into distinct modular modes: direct application starting mode, multimedia preview mode, and assistant service mode. Each mode can be independently selected and configured, allowing users to choose the most appropriate starting method for each situation. This segmentation maintains the simplicity of voice commands while adding significant versatility through multiple discrete options.

AI summary
Provided are a method and device for information processing, a terminal, a server and a storage medium. The method includes that: voice information is collected; responsive to that the voice information instructs a target application program to be started, instruction information configured to assist in starting the target application program is determined; and multimedia information indicated by the instruction information is output according to the instruction information in a process of starting the target application program. Therefore, the multimedia information may be output in the process of starting the application program to improve the experience of a user in starting the application program.
