Voice Prompt for Screen-Locked Taxi Order Updates
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Users of taxi service software on electronic devices face challenges in accessing state information of their orders without unlocking their devices, particularly when the device is in a screen-locked state, which hinders timely updates and notifications.
Innovation Solution
A method and apparatus that detect changes in taxi service order state information while the device is screen-locked, generate voice information based on these changes, and broadcast it, allowing users to receive updates without unlocking their devices, including features like voice conversion for dialogue messages and enabling a voice prompt function.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If the device requires unlocking to view taxi service order state information, then device security is maintained, but user convenience and information accessibility deteriorate
Solution Approach 1:
The patent introduces voice interaction as an intermediary channel between the user and the taxi service order system. The voice prompt function acts as a mediator that delivers order state information without requiring the user to unlock the device, thus maintaining security while improving accessibility. The voice output serves as an intermediate representation of the order information that can be consumed without visual display access.
2Loss of time
If the device remains screen-locked, then security is maintained, but timely access to order updates deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The patent replaces the mechanical interaction required for screen unlocking (physical unlocking actions, visual verification) with an acoustic/voice-based interaction system. The voice prompt function substitutes the mechanical display-locked interface with an audio communication channel, eliminating the need for mechanical unlocking operations while maintaining timely access to order update information.
3Ease of operation
If voice prompt function is added, then user experience and information accessibility improve, but device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements a multi-functional voice prompt system that serves multiple purposes within the taxi service application. The voice function not only announces order state information but also provides route guidance, driver information, and real-time updates. By consolidating these functions into a single voice-based interface, the system avoids the need for separate mechanisms for each function, thereby limiting the increase in overall complexity while maximizing information accessibility.

AI summary
Disclosed are a method and an apparatus for providing state information of a taxi service order and a storage medium. The method includes in a case that an electronic device is in a screen-locked state, detecting that the state information corresponding to the taxi service order changes, and acquiring changed state information of the taxi service order and generating voice information corresponding to the changed state information, and broadcasting the voice information through voice.
