Abstract

An automatic operation system provides a CPU to detect and record a status of operation for the operated mechanism. As soon as a response is to be output for allowing the operated mechanism to perform a operation, the CPU figures out corresponding responses by way of a statistic analysis based on past record of operation status as a reference for the operator. Thus, an operation is simplified or a response is output automatically so as to allow the operated mechanism processing itself.

Claims

1. An automatic operation system comprising:

a) an operated mechanism;

b) a memory; and

c) a CPU electrically connected to the operated system and the memory, wherein the CPU detects a status of operation for the operated mechanism and the memory records the status of operation for the operated mechanism in memory to develop an operation record, the CPU performing a statistical analysis function on the operation record, developing a response based on the statistical analysis function, and sending the response to the operated system, the response being selected from the group of responses consisting of a reference for the operator and an output to the operated system to generate a predetermined operation by the operated system.

2. The automatic operation system according to claim 1, further comprising a timer electrically connected to the CPU and controlling the response to occur at a pre-determined time.

3. The automatic operation system according to claim 2, wherein the operated system is selected from a group of systems consisting of a video phone, a screen phone, a phone with a display, a radio, a computer, and a television.

4. The automatic operation system according to claim 2, wherein the operated system is an elevator.

5. The automatic operation system according to claim 2, wherein the CPU and memory are connected to the operated system.

6. The automatic operation system according to claim 1, wherein the statistical analysis function includes a probability of response occurrence function to determine at least one of the following:

a relationship between time and the probability of response occurrence, and a statistical analysis of inverse operation.

7. The automatic operation system according to claim 6, further comprising a timer electrically connected to the CPU and controlling the response to occur at a pre-determined time.

8. The automatic operation system according to claim 7, wherein the operated system is selected from a group of systems consisting of a video phone, a screen phone, a phone with a display, a radio, a computer, and a television.

9. The automatic operation system according to claim 7, wherein the operated system is an elevator.

10. The automatic operation system according to claim 7, wherein the CPU and memory are connected to the operated system.

11. A method of operating an automatic operation system, which comprises the steps of:

a) detecting a status of operation of an operated mechanism using a CPU;

b) recording the status of operation of the operated mechanism in a memory electrically connected to the CPU to develop an operation record;

c) performing a statistical analysis function on the operation record using the CPU;

d) developing a response based on the statistical analysis function using the CPU;

e) sending the response based on the statistical analysis function to the operated system; and

f) performing a corresponding mode of operation by the operated system based upon the response generated by the CPU.

12. The method according to claim 11, wherein the developing step d) includes developing a response selected from the group of responses consisting of a reference for the operator and an output to the operated system to generate a predetermined operation by the operated system.

13. The method according to claim 12, wherein the performing step f) includes performing a corresponding mode of operation selected from the group consisting of a response set by an operator and a response automatically set as a result of the statistical analysis function performed by the CPU base on pre-determined parameters.

14. The method according to claim 13, wherein the operated system is selected from a group of systems consisting of a video phone, a screen phone, a phone with a display, a radio, a computer, and a television.

15. The method according to claim 13, wherein the operated system is an elevator.

16. The method according to claim 11, wherein the step of performing c) includes a probability of response occurrence function to determine at least one of the following:

a relationship between time and the probability of response occurrence, and a statistical analysis of inverse operation.

17. The method according to claim 16, wherein the developing step d) includes developing a response selected from the group of responses consisting of a reference for the operator and an output to the operated system to generate a predetermined operation by the operated system.

18. The method according to claim 17, wherein the performing step f) includes performing a corresponding mode of operation selected from the group consisting of a response set by an operator and a response automatically set as a result of the statistical analysis function performed by the CPU base on pre-determined parameters.

19. The method according to claim 18, wherein the operated system is selected from a group of systems consisting of a video phone, a screen phone, a phone with a display, a radio, a computer, and a television.

20. The method according to claim 18, wherein the operated system is an elevator.
