Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Ease of operation

If call management is performed through wearable devices for third-party applications, then user convenience and operation simplicity are improved, but currently this functionality is not available and only system call tasks can be managed

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecall management operationVSAvoidapplication compatibility
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSAdaptability or versatility

Solution Approach 1:

The patent extends the call management functionality of wearable devices from only system call tasks to include third-party application calls as well. The electronic device establishes Bluetooth communication connections with wearable devices and transmits call scenario information (indicating incoming or outgoing call scenarios) and contact information to the wearable device, enabling the wearable device to display and manage calls from multiple application sources including third-party applications like instant messaging apps.

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

2Productivity

If call management is performed manually on electronic devices, then all call tasks can be managed, but the operation becomes extremely cumbersome and efficiency decreases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecall management efficiencyVSAvoidoperation simplicity
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The patent extracts the call management functionality from the electronic device and transfers it to the wearable device. The electronic device transmits call scenario information and contact information to the wearable device via Bluetooth communication, allowing users to manage third-party application calls on the wearable device instead of manually operating on the electronic device, thereby improving both operation simplicity and call management efficiency.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #2Taking out (Extraction)

3Adaptability or versatility

If Bluetooth communication connection is established between electronic devices, then call scenario information can be transmitted to wearable devices, but additional communication protocols and data transmission are required

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecall management capabilityVSAvoidcommunication system
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent utilizes the existing Bluetooth communication connection between electronic devices and wearable devices to transmit call scenario information and contact information. By leveraging the already-established Bluetooth infrastructure, the system can manage third-party application calls without requiring entirely new communication protocols, thus extending functionality while minimizing additional system complexity.

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

AI summary

This application discloses a Bluetooth third-party application call management method, an electronic device, and a system, and relates to the field of terminals. The method includes the following steps: when an electronic device learns about that a third-party application has a call task to be processed, the electronic device sends call scenario information to a wearable device based on a Bluetooth connection through a first application, so that the wearable device can acquire a current call scenario; and when the wearable device receives a first operation acting on the wearable device, the wearable device sends a first command corresponding to the first operation to the first application in the electronic device through the Bluetooth connection, so that the first application executes a first function corresponding to the first command (such as answering an incoming call, hanging up a call, or rejecting an incoming call).
