ELECTRONIC DEVICE AND METHOD FOR PROVIDING OPERATING STATE OF PLURALITY OF DEVICES - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240096331 titled 'ELECTRONIC DEVICE AND METHOD FOR PROVIDING OPERATING STATE OF PLURALITY OF DEVICES
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes an electronic device that can receive user utterances from one device, identify another device to perform an action based on the utterance, and send commands to both devices accordingly.
- Electronic device receives user utterance from one device
- Identifies another device to perform action based on utterance
- Sends command to target device for notification
- Sends command to second device to perform part of action
Potential Applications
This technology could be applied in various fields such as home automation, smart assistants, and IoT devices to enhance user experience and automate tasks efficiently.
Problems Solved
This technology solves the problem of coordinating actions between multiple devices when they are not in close proximity, allowing for seamless execution of tasks based on user commands.
Benefits
The benefits of this technology include improved user convenience, increased automation capabilities, and enhanced coordination between different electronic devices.
Potential Commercial Applications
One potential commercial application of this technology could be in the development of smart home systems that can intelligently delegate tasks to different devices based on user commands, providing a more integrated and efficient user experience.
Possible Prior Art
One possible prior art for this technology could be systems that use Bluetooth or Wi-Fi connectivity to communicate between devices and perform coordinated actions based on user inputs.
Unanswered Questions
How does the device determine the range within which the devices should be located for direct communication?
The abstract does not provide details on how the electronic device determines the specified range within which the devices should be located for direct communication. This could involve using signal strength, GPS coordinates, or other proximity detection methods.
What types of actions can the second external electronic device perform based on the user utterance?
The abstract does not specify the types of actions that the second external electronic device can perform based on the user utterance. It would be interesting to know the range of actions that can be delegated to different devices in this system.
Original Abstract Submitted
provided is an electronic device that may receive information corresponding to a user utterance from a first external electronic device, identify a second external electronic device to perform at least a part of an action corresponding to the user utterance, based on determining that the first external electronic device and the second external electronic device are not located within a specified range: determine a target external electronic device to provide a first notification and transmit a command to the target external electronic device to provide the first notification, and transmit a command to the second external electronic device to perform the part of the action corresponding to the user utterance.
