Solution Overview

Problem

Intelligent devices cannot provide users with intelligent interactive services when they are operating in environments without a WiFi network, as they cannot establish a network connection with the server.

Innovation Solution

The intelligent device extracts key voice information from user voice data and transmits it to a mobile terminal, which then forwards it to a server for processing, allowing the device to receive and display the processing result even in a non-WiFi environment by using the mobile terminal's network connection.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If the intelligent device uses WiFi network to interact with the server, then the intelligent interactive services can be provided, but the device cannot operate in environments without WiFi network

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvenetwork environment adaptabilityVSAvoidservice availability
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The patent introduces a mobile terminal as an intermediary device between the intelligent device and the server. When WiFi is unavailable, the intelligent device transmits data to the mobile terminal via Bluetooth, which then forwards the data to the server through its mobile network connection, enabling indirect communication that maintains service availability across different network environments

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

Solution Approach 2:

The system implements multi-functionality by enabling the intelligent device to operate through multiple network paths: direct WiFi connection to server, or indirect connection via mobile terminal using Bluetooth and mobile network. This universal approach allows the system to adapt to different network conditions and maintain service continuity

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

2Loss of information

If the intelligent device transmits all user voice information to the server, then the server can process complete information, but the data transmission volume and power consumption increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveinformation completenessVSAvoidpower consumption
Core Design Contradiction:
Loss of informationVSUse of energy by moving object

Solution Approach 1:

The patent extracts only the essential key information from the complete user voice data before transmission. The intelligent device processes the voice information locally, identifies and extracts key elements, and transmits only these extracted key information to the server, thereby reducing transmission volume and power consumption while maintaining the completeness of essential information

Inventive Principle:
Principle #2Taking out (Extraction)

Solution Approach 2:

The system segments the information processing into two stages: local extraction of key information from voice data at the intelligent device, and server-side processing of the extracted key information. This segmentation reduces the amount of data that needs to be transmitted and processed over the network, lowering energy consumption while preserving critical information

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

AI summary

The present disclosure discloses a data processing method and apparatus for an intelligent device, and a storage medium, which relates to a field of artificial intelligence technologies. The method includes: extracting key voice information from collected user voice information; in a non-wireless fidelity (WiFi) network environment, transmitting the key voice information to a mobile terminal, so that the mobile terminal transmits the key voice information to a server, and receives a processing result fed back by the server after the server processes the key voice information; and obtaining the processing result from the mobile terminal to display the processing result.
