METHOD AND ELECTRONIC DEVICE FOR RETRIEVING EXTERNAL DEVICE THROUGH POSITIONING ANGLE ADJUSTMENT - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17900357 titled 'METHOD AND ELECTRONIC DEVICE FOR RETRIEVING EXTERNAL DEVICE THROUGH POSITIONING ANGLE ADJUSTMENT

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes a method and device for ultra-wideband (UWB) communication.

  • The device includes a display, a communication module, a memory, and a processor.
  • The processor is connected to the display, communication module, or memory.
  • The processor can perform UWB communication through the communication module.
  • It can retrieve external devices within the range of UWB communication.
  • The retrieval is based on the UWB communication.
  • The processor can determine if a retrieved external device satisfies a configured condition.
  • If the condition is satisfied, it can perform an operation related to the retrieved external device.
  • If the condition is not satisfied, it can re-retrieve the external devices by changing the positioning angle.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • Smart home systems that can automatically detect and interact with external devices within a certain range.
  • Industrial automation systems that can communicate with and control external devices in a factory setting.
  • Healthcare devices that can monitor and interact with external medical equipment.

Problems solved by this technology:

  • Simplifies the process of detecting and interacting with external devices within a certain range.
  • Reduces the need for manual configuration or setup of external devices.
  • Improves the efficiency and accuracy of communication between devices.

Benefits of this technology:

  • Enhanced user experience by automating device detection and interaction.
  • Increased convenience and ease of use in various settings.
  • Improved efficiency and productivity in industrial and healthcare applications.


Original Abstract Submitted

Various embodiments of the disclosure disclose a method and a device including a display, a communication module, a memory, and a processor configured to be operatively connected to at least one of the display, the communication module, or the memory. The processor may be configured to perform ultra-wideband (UWB) communication through the communication module, retrieve at least one external device corresponding to a perceivable range of the UWB communication, based at least in part on the UWB communication, determine whether a configured condition is satisfied by a retrieved external device of the retrieved one or more external devices, perform an operation related to the retrieved external device when the retrieved external device satisfies the configured condition, and re-retrieve the at least one external device by changing the positioning angle when the retrieved external device does not correspond to the configured condition. Various embodiments are possible.
