Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current electronic devices lack the ability to configure messages for wearable devices with customizable formats and executable functions, resulting in monotonous and limited interactions on wearable devices.
Innovation Solution
An electronic device and method for configuring messages that include templates and icons, allowing detection of events and transmission to wearable devices, enabling execution of functions upon user input.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If an electronic device configures only the content of a message without format templates, then the message configuration process is simple, but the message display becomes monotonous and prosaic
Solution Approach 1:
The electronic device stores multiple message format templates in advance (first template with icon, second template without icon). When an event is detected, the device automatically selects and applies the appropriate pre-defined template to configure the message, eliminating the need for complex real-time formatting decisions while providing diverse display options.
2Ease of operation
If a wearable electronic device only executes applications from an electronic device, then the system is simple to operate, but the wearable device cannot utilize its own functions
Solution Approach 1:
The message is segmented into distinct functional components: event information, first template with executable icon, and second template for additional information. The wearable device can independently execute functions triggered by the icon without requiring the electronic device's applications, enabling the wearable device to utilize its own processing capabilities while maintaining simple operation through automated icon execution.
3Device complexity
If an electronic device transmits only text messages to a wearable device, then the transmission process is simple, but the information transfer is limited
Solution Approach 1:
The message structure is enhanced by adding a functional dimension through the icon element in the first template. Instead of transmitting only text, the device transmits structured message data including event type, formatted text content, and executable icon identifiers. This multi-dimensional message structure enables the wearable device to both display comprehensive information and execute relevant functions, significantly improving information transfer completeness while maintaining relatively simple transmission protocols.
Data Source
AI summary
An electronic device and a method for configuring a message, and a wearable electronic device and a method for receiving and executing the message are provided. The method includes detecting an event, configuring the message in response to the detected event, the message being executed on a wearable electronic device communicating with the electronic device, and transmitting the message to the wearable electronic device.
