Solution Overview

Problem

Conventional techniques fail to provide a true three-dimensional representation of a pet that encapsulates its appearance and mannerisms, limiting interaction and information inference by pet owners and third-party services.

Innovation Solution

A method and system for creating a three-dimensional pet avatar using pet image data, physical characteristics, and additional pet characteristics, which includes training a machine-learning model to evaluate medical recovery.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Ease of manufacture

If two-dimensional graphics are used to represent a pet, then the representation can be created easily, but it fails to encapsulate true dimensions and physical mannerisms of the pet

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveease of creating pet representationVSAvoidloss of pet dimensions and mannerisms
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of manufactureVSLoss of information

Solution Approach 1:

The patent transitions from two-dimensional graphics to three-dimensional avatars, adding depth and spatial dimensions to accurately represent pet physical characteristics, mannerisms, and movements while maintaining ease of creation through automated processing

Inventive Principle:
Principle #17Another dimension (Dimensionality change)

2Loss of information

If a three-dimensional pet representation is created, then true dimensions and appearance are captured, but the system complexity increases significantly

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvepreservation of pet dimensions and appearanceVSAvoidcomplexity of representation system
Core Design Contradiction:
Loss of informationVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent creates a digital copy (avatar) of the physical pet that replicates its appearance, dimensions, and mannerisms. This virtual copy can be manipulated and analyzed without requiring complex physical measurement devices, simplifying the overall system while maintaining accuracy

Inventive Principle:
Principle #26Copying

Solution Approach 2:

The system performs preliminary actions by automatically capturing and processing pet images, extracting features, and generating three-dimensional models without requiring manual measurement or complex setup, thereby reducing system complexity while preserving detailed pet characteristics

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

3Device complexity

If conventional representation techniques are used, then the system remains simple, but it lacks the capability to provide true three-dimensional representation and enable advanced interactions

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvesimplicity of systemVSAvoidcapability for interaction and information inference
Core Design Contradiction:
Device complexityVSAdaptability or versatility

Solution Approach 1:

The three-dimensional pet avatar serves multiple functions simultaneously: it represents the pet's appearance, enables virtual interactions, supports medical analysis, allows for breeding simulations, and facilitates various third-party services, thereby increasing versatility without proportionally increasing system complexity

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)
