Wearable Device Support Status Notification System
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Users of electronic devices carried and used by hand often face difficulties in recognizing the support status of these devices, leading to potential fatigue and stiffness in the neck, shoulder, and arm regions.
Innovation Solution
A device support status notification system that includes an information acquisition unit to gather data for support status determination, a support status determination unit to execute this determination based on acquired information, and an information notification unit to inform the user of the support status, thereby enabling the user to recognize and adjust their support method.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Object-affected harmful factors
If the user continuously monitors and adjusts device support status, then user comfort and health are improved, but device complexity and operational burden increase
Solution Approach 1:
The electronic device automatically performs support status determination using its own sensors and processing capabilities without requiring external monitoring equipment. The device serves itself by autonomously detecting its support status and providing notifications to the user, eliminating the need for complex external monitoring systems while improving user comfort
Solution Approach 2:
The system implements a feedback loop where the device continuously monitors support status through sensors, compares it against healthy ranges, and provides notifications to the user when adjustment is needed. This automated feedback mechanism reduces the operational burden on users while maintaining health benefits through consistent monitoring and guidance
2Loss of information
If the device provides frequent notifications about support status, then user awareness and posture correction are improved, but user annoyance and operational interference increase
Solution Approach 1:
The system provides notifications selectively based on the severity and duration of detected support status deviations. Rather than notifying for every minor fluctuation, it triggers alerts only when the device is held in an unhealthy position for a significant duration or when the deviation exceeds predetermined thresholds, thereby maintaining user awareness while minimizing annoyance
Solution Approach 2:
The device implements periodic monitoring of support status and provides notifications at intervals rather than continuously. The notification frequency is dynamically adjusted based on the detected support status patterns, providing reminders at appropriate intervals to encourage posture correction without creating constant interruptions that would interfere with user convenience
Data Source
AI summary
An electronic device to be carried by the user and used by a user executes support status determination on the basis of information for determination acquired by an information acquisition unit that acquire the information for determination that is information to be used for the support status determination that is determination of a device support status that is a status of support of the electronic device by the user and makes a notification of information for notification that is information based on a result of the executed support status determination.
