Wearable Ring Remote Controller Gesture Recognition
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current remote controllers require users to perform pushbutton operations or large-amplitude hand actions, leading to poor user experience and difficulty in carrying them.
Innovation Solution
A wearable ring-shaped remote controller with sensors to detect operation gestures, a processor to analyze these gestures, and a wireless communications module to send control signals to a terminal device, allowing for gesture-based control without the need for pushbuttons or large hand movements.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If a pushbutton remote controller is used, then control functionality is provided, but ease of operation deteriorates due to requiring clicking or pressing actions
Solution Approach 1:
The patent replaces the mechanical pushbutton system with a gesture recognition system using sensors (accelerometers, gyroscopes, touch sensors) to detect user gestures. This substitution eliminates the need for physical buttons while providing more intuitive and diverse control methods through gesture recognition, directly improving ease of operation.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent changes the control interface from discrete button presses to continuous gesture parameters including motion direction, speed, duration, and pattern. By recognizing different gesture parameters (swipe direction, rotation angle, tap frequency), the system provides nuanced control functionality without requiring physical buttons, resolving the contradiction between ease of operation and device complexity.
2Ease of operation
If a traditional remote controller is used, then control functionality is provided, but portability deteriorates due to difficulty in carrying
Solution Approach 1:
The patent transitions from a two-dimensional button layout to three-dimensional gesture space for control input. By utilizing spatial movements in multiple dimensions (swiping, rotating, tapping in various directions), the system eliminates the need for a bulky physical interface while maintaining comprehensive control functionality, thereby improving portability without sacrificing control capability.
3Ease of operation
If gesture-based control is implemented, then ease of operation improves, but measurement precision must be enhanced to accurately detect gestures
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments the gesture detection function into multiple specialized sensors (accelerometers for linear motion, gyroscopes for rotational motion, touch sensors for contact detection). Each sensor type measures specific gesture parameters with high precision, and the combined data provides comprehensive and accurate gesture recognition, resolving the contradiction between ease of operation and measurement precision.
