INFORMATION PROCESSING DEVICE, PROCESSING METHOD, AND RECORDING MEDIUM - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240118780 titled 'INFORMATION PROCESSING DEVICE, PROCESSING METHOD, AND RECORDING MEDIUM
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes a portable communication device capable of setting a sleep mode as an operation mode. The device can automatically switch to sleep mode when no operations are received for a certain period of time, and display an indicator when the first operation is received in sleep mode. It can also launch an application program associated with the specified indicator when operations are received to specify it.
- Portable communication device with sleep mode operation capability
- Operation receiver receives user operations
- Setter switches operation mode to sleep mode after a period of inactivity
- Displayer shows indicator when first operation is received in sleep mode
- Launcher launches associated application program when specified indicator is received
Potential Applications
The technology could be applied in smartphones, tablets, and other portable devices to improve power management and user experience by automatically entering a low-power sleep mode when not in use.
Problems Solved
1. Power consumption: By entering sleep mode when not in use, the device can conserve battery power. 2. User convenience: Automatically switching to sleep mode reduces the need for manual operation mode adjustments.
Benefits
1. Extended battery life 2. Improved user experience 3. Enhanced power management
Potential Commercial Applications
"Smartphone Power Management Technology for Improved User Experience"
Possible Prior Art
There may be existing patents or technologies related to power-saving modes in portable devices or automatic operation mode adjustments based on user activity.
Unanswered Questions
How does the device determine the length of the first time period before switching to sleep mode?
The patent application does not specify the exact duration of the first time period before the device switches to sleep mode. This could vary depending on the device's settings or user preferences.
What types of indicators can be displayed in sleep mode, and how are they specified by the user?
The application mentions launching an application program associated with a specified indicator, but it does not detail the specific types of indicators that can be displayed or how users can specify them.
Original Abstract Submitted
a portable communication device () is capable of setting a sleep mode as an operation mode. an operation receiver () receives operations given by a user. a setter () sets the operation mode to the sleep mode when the operation receiver () receives no operation for a first time period. a displayer () displays an indicator on a display when the operation receiver () receives a first operation in the sleep made. a launcher () launches, when the operation receiver () receives operations for specifying the indicator, an application program associated with the specified indicator.
