INFORMATION PROCESSING DEVICE, INFORMATION PROCESSING METHOD, AND SYSTEM - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240093896 titled 'INFORMATION PROCESSING DEVICE, INFORMATION PROCESSING METHOD, AND SYSTEM
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes an information processing device with a control unit that monitors power fluctuations of an electrical product used by a user to estimate the product consumed and the consumption quantity based on the power data.
- Control unit acquires information on power fluctuations of electrical product.
- Estimates product consumed by user and consumption quantity based on power data.
Potential Applications
This technology could be applied in smart home systems to track and manage energy consumption of various devices, in industrial settings to optimize energy usage, and in commercial buildings to monitor power usage patterns.
Problems Solved
This technology helps in identifying energy consumption patterns, detecting anomalies in power usage, and promoting energy efficiency by providing insights into consumption habits.
Benefits
The benefits of this technology include improved energy management, cost savings through optimized energy consumption, and increased awareness of power usage leading to more sustainable practices.
Potential Commercial Applications
"Energy Consumption Monitoring System for Smart Homes"
Possible Prior Art
One possible prior art could be smart meters used in households to monitor electricity consumption and provide data on energy usage patterns.
Unanswered Questions
How does the device differentiate between power fluctuations caused by the user and those caused by external factors?
The device may use algorithms to analyze the patterns of power fluctuations and identify trends that are consistent with user behavior, helping to distinguish between user-related fluctuations and external factors.
Can the device provide real-time alerts or notifications to the user regarding their energy consumption?
Yes, the device can be programmed to send alerts or notifications to the user when unusual power consumption patterns are detected, allowing for immediate action to be taken to address any issues.
Original Abstract Submitted
an information processing device has a control unit that acquires information relating to a fluctuation of power consumed by an electrical product operating around a user, and that estimates a product consumed by the user and a consumption quantity of the product based on the information relating to the fluctuation in the power.
