Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
The existing registration process for electronic devices in a server is lengthy and complicated, requiring multiple user inputs such as touch or physical button inputs, which can lead to errors and decreased user convenience.
Innovation Solution
An electronic device equipped with a microphone, communication circuit, and processor that can receive utterances, detect signals from external devices, identify and authenticate them using voiceprint analysis, and register them in a server without the need for individual user inputs.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If multiple user inputs (touch or physical button inputs) are required for each step in the registration procedure, then the registration process can be completed with accurate user confirmation, but the registration process becomes long and complicated
Solution Approach 1:
The patent replaces mechanical input methods (touch inputs, physical button inputs) with voice-based input. The electronic device receives user inputs through voice commands via a microphone, converts them to text through speech recognition, and processes these voice-based instructions to perform registration operations. This substitution eliminates the need for multiple sequential mechanical interactions while maintaining user confirmation accuracy through voice recognition technology.
2Ease of operation
If multiple user inputs are required for each operation in the registration procedure, then user actions can be precisely tracked, but the complexity of the operation increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent replaces complex mechanical input operations with voice-based commands. Instead of requiring users to navigate through multiple touch screens or press physical buttons in sequence, the system accepts natural language voice inputs that directly convey user intent. The speech recognition module converts voice inputs to text, and the processor interprets these commands to execute registration operations, significantly simplifying the user interaction model.
Solution Approach 2:
The electronic device performs automatic device identification and registration operations based on voice commands without requiring manual guidance through each step. The system autonomously detects external devices, processes registration information, and completes the registration procedure based on the user's voice instructions, reducing the cognitive load and operational complexity for the user.
3Reliability
If multiple user inputs are required for registration, then each step can be confirmed by the user, but errors may be entered during the procedure
Solution Approach 1:
The patent replaces manual mechanical inputs with voice-based input to reduce errors. Voice commands are less prone to accidental presses or misinterpretations compared to touch or button inputs. The speech recognition system converts voice to text with confirmation capabilities, allowing users to verify recognized commands before execution, thereby maintaining reliability while reducing erroneous inputs.
4Reliability
If a detailed multi-step registration procedure is used, then proper authentication can be ensured, but user convenience decreases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent replaces manual authentication interactions with voice-based authentication. The system receives voice inputs, performs speech recognition to convert them to text, and uses the processed voice data for authentication purposes. This maintains security verification while significantly improving user convenience by eliminating the need for users to manually navigate through complex authentication steps.

AI summary
Disclosed is an electronic device including a microphone, a communication circuit, a memory, and a processor operatively connected to the microphone, the communication circuit, and the memory. The memory may store one or more instructions that, when executed, cause the processor to: receive an utterance through the microphone, execute a function to detect a signal received from at least one external electronic device based on the utterance, identify the at least one external electronic device based on the signal, determine an external electronic device to be registered from among the at least one external electronic device based on device information included in the signal and device information extracted from the utterance, authenticate the external electronic device to be registered, using voiceprint analysis on the utterance, and register the authenticated external electronic device in an external server.
