Solution Overview

Problem

Users face difficulties in determining the appropriate exercise machine and exercise load based on their physical development state, and creating an effective exercise plan that balances full-body muscle development, especially in smart gyms where occupancy status of machines can impact workout efficiency.

Innovation Solution

An AI exercise sequence generation system that communicates with exercise machines in a smart gym, determines occupancy status, and provides a personalized exercise program including a user order of machines, automatically adjusting the sequence to optimize muscle development and machine usage efficiency.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If a fixed exercise sequence is provided to users, then users can follow a structured workout plan, but the system cannot adapt to machine occupancy status or user physical changes

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveexercise sequence adaptabilityVSAvoidsystem complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The exercise sequence is transformed from a static fixed plan to a dynamic adaptive plan that automatically adjusts based on real-time machine occupancy status and user physical condition changes, allowing the system to remain flexible without requiring complex manual reconfiguration

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

Solution Approach 2:

The system implements feedback mechanisms by continuously monitoring machine occupancy status and user exercise progress, then using this information to automatically adjust and reset exercise sequences, creating a closed-loop adaptive system

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

2Productivity

If the exercise sequence is manually adjusted for each user, then personalized workout plans can be created, but this increases time consumption and reduces exercise efficiency

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveexercise efficiencyVSAvoidtime for exercise plan creation
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The system enables self-service by automatically generating and adjusting personalized exercise sequences based on pre-set user profiles and real-time occupancy data, eliminating the need for manual trainer intervention while maintaining personalization

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

Solution Approach 2:

User profiles and exercise preferences are pre-configured in advance, allowing the system to quickly generate personalized sequences without time-consuming manual assessment when users arrive at the gym

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

3Productivity

If exercise machines are reserved in a fixed order, then users can complete their workout efficiently, but other users cannot effectively utilize the available machines

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvemachine utilization efficiencyVSAvoiduser workout simplicity
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The machine usage sequence is made dynamic by allowing automatic resetting based on occupancy status, enabling the system to optimize both individual workout continuity and overall gym resource utilization simultaneously

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics
