Solution Overview

Problem

Existing voice recognition systems for electronic apparatuses have limited and simple edition commands, restricting the ability to correct wrong character inputs, thereby reducing the utility and convenience of character input functions.

Innovation Solution

The electronic apparatus is enhanced with a control method that allows for more varied and extensive edition commands during character input using voice recognition, enabling improved editing functionality.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Ease of operation

If the voice recognition system uses simple edition commands, then the system complexity is low, but the edition function utilization and convenience are limited

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveconvenience of character inputVSAvoidcomplexity of edition commands
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The voice recognition system is enhanced to recognize multiple types of edition commands (deletion, replacement, insertion, movement) within a unified voice-based interface. The processor is configured to identify different command types based on voice input patterns, allowing a single system to perform diverse editing functions without requiring separate control mechanisms for each operation type.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)

Solution Approach 2:

The system changes the operational parameters of the edition function by introducing multiple command types with different behaviors. Deletion commands remove characters, replacement commands substitute characters, insertion commands add characters at specific positions, and movement commands reposition characters. Each command type modifies the character string according to its specific parameter set, expanding the functional capabilities while maintaining voice-based control.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

2Adaptability or versatility

If the edition function has limited command types, then the system is simple to implement, but the utility and convenience of character input are reduced

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvevariety of edition commandsVSAvoidcomplexity of recognition system
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The edition command recognition is segmented into distinct command types (deletion, replacement, insertion, movement), each with its own recognition pattern and execution logic. The processor identifies the specific command type based on the voice input structure and applies the corresponding editing operation. This segmentation allows the system to handle complex functionality through modular, organized command processing.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The voice recognition system acts as an intermediary layer between the user and the character string editing operations. The processor analyzes the voice input to determine the intended edition command type, then translates this into the appropriate editing action. This intermediary processing layer enables versatile command recognition while abstracting the complexity from the user interface.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

AI summary

Disclosed is an electronic apparatus. The electronic apparatus obtains a first character string comprising a previously defined character from first user utterance; recognizes a second character string, which is edited from the first character string based on a first edition command, as an input character, based on the first user utterance comprising the first edition command following the first character string; and performs edition with regard to the second character string based on second edition command, based on second user utterance comprising the second edition command without the first edition command.
