Voice Authentication Screen Adaptation for Operational Reliability
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing information processing systems require both user authentication and voice recognition to succeed before processing can be executed, leading to operational failures if either authentication or voice recognition fails.
Innovation Solution
An information processing apparatus that acquires and authenticates user voice, and recognizes voice commands, allowing processing to proceed based on authentication and recognition results, even if user authentication fails, by displaying different operation screens and executing tasks in a restricted mode if voice recognition succeeds.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If both user authentication and voice recognition must succeed for processing to be executed, then information security is improved, but operational reliability deteriorates because processing cannot be executed when authentication or voice recognition fails
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments the authentication process into two independent evaluation paths: user authentication (first determination) and voice recognition (second determination). This allows the system to evaluate each component separately and combine their results flexibly, enabling processing to proceed when at least one path succeeds, thereby improving operational reliability while maintaining security through the dual-path evaluation.
2Ease of operation
If processing is executed only when both authentication and voice recognition succeed, then information security is improved, but ease of operation deteriorates because users cannot execute processing when authentication fails
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements dynamic control of operation screens based on authentication and voice recognition results. When authentication succeeds, full operation screens are displayed; when authentication fails but voice recognition succeeds, restricted operation screens are displayed. This dynamic adaptation allows the system to maintain ease of operation for authenticated users while providing limited functionality to unauthenticated users with valid voice commands, balancing usability and security.
3Adaptability or versatility
If the system displays different operation screens based on authentication and voice recognition results, then adaptability is improved, but device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies local quality by providing different operation screen configurations for different user states: full-function screens for authenticated users, restricted screens for unauthenticated users with successful voice recognition, and error screens for complete failures. Each screen type is optimized for its specific context, allowing the system to adapt to different user needs while managing complexity through targeted, context-specific interface variations rather than a completely redesigned system.

AI summary
An information processing apparatus includes a processor configured to acquire a voice of a user, authenticate the user by using the voice, and recognize the voice, and display operation screens that are different depending on an authentication result of the user and a recognition result of the voice and are used for an operation of executing processing on a display unit.
