Wearable-Linked Smart Home Control for Automatic Mode Switching
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing methods for controlling smart home devices, such as air conditioners, humidifiers, and air purifiers, require manual adjustments by users, which is inconvenient and inefficient.
Innovation Solution
A method and apparatus that utilize a wearable device to send operation mode configuration information containing a device identification, allowing smart home devices to automatically operate based on pre-set operation parameters stored in an association relationship table, reducing the need for frequent manual adjustments.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If manual adjustment of operation parameters is required, then the device can operate in optimal mode for the user, but it involves complicated operations and brings inconvenience
Solution Approach 1:
The wearable device automatically sends operation mode configuration information to the smart home device based on pre-established associations, enabling the system to self-adjust without requiring manual user intervention for parameter changes
Solution Approach 2:
The association relationship table is pre-established between the wearable device and smart home devices, storing device identifications and corresponding operation parameters in advance, so that automatic control can be executed immediately when the wearable device sends the configuration information
2Adaptability or versatility
If operation parameters are frequently adjusted manually, then the device can adapt to different user needs, but it increases operation complexity and time consumption
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs automatic parameter adjustment through the wearable device sending operation mode configuration information, eliminating the need for frequent manual interventions while maintaining adaptability to different user needs through pre-configured associations
Solution Approach 2:
The wearable device receives operation mode configuration information from the smart home device and automatically processes the parameter adjustments, creating a feedback loop that eliminates manual intervention cycles
