Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
The process of setting an integrated remote controller for external devices connected to a display device is overly complicated, requiring users to manually input device type, input terminal, and manufacturer through a remote control, causing inconvenience.
Innovation Solution
A display device equipped with a user input interface for receiving signals from a remote control device and a controller that can receive voice signals to set external devices as control targets of the remote control device, simplifying the setup process by extracting necessary data from voice commands.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Measurement precision
If manual input method is used for setting integrated remote controller, then device compatibility and control precision are improved, but operation complexity and user burden increase significantly
Solution Approach 1:
The patent replaces the mechanical manual input system with an acoustic voice recognition system. The voice signal receiver captures user speech, which is then processed by a controller to extract device information, automatically completing the remote controller setup without requiring manual navigation through menus or typing device parameters.
Solution Approach 2:
The system enables self-service by allowing the external device to automatically provide its identification information through voice commands. The controller extracts device type, manufacturer, and model information from the voice signal, and the display device automatically configures the remote controller settings based on this extracted data, eliminating the need for user intervention in the configuration process.
2Productivity
If automatic voice recognition is used for setting integrated remote controller, then operation simplicity and setup time are improved, but system complexity and technology requirements increase
Solution Approach 1:
The display device is designed with multi-functionality, integrating both display capabilities and voice-activated remote controller configuration functions. The controller serves dual purposes: managing display operations and processing voice signals for automatic remote controller setup, thereby reducing overall system complexity through functional consolidation.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent introduces a voice signal receiver and controller as intermediaries between the user and the remote controller setup process. These components mediate the interaction by converting speech into structured device information, which then automatically configures the remote controller, simplifying the user's task while managing system complexity through dedicated intermediary modules.
3Reliability
If detailed manual configuration is required for external devices, then control precision and device compatibility are improved, but user time consumption and inconvenience increase
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs preliminary action by automatically extracting and storing device information (type, manufacturer, model) from voice signals before the actual remote controller configuration is needed. This pre-processing of device data enables rapid setup while ensuring accurate device identification and compatibility, eliminating the time-consuming manual configuration process.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent replaces the time-consuming manual configuration process with automated voice recognition and information extraction. The voice signal receiver and controller work together to capture, process, and apply device information automatically, maintaining reliable remote control functionality while dramatically reducing setup time and user effort.
