Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If conventional ranging devices are used for measurement, then basic straight line distance measurement can be achieved, but the ability to measure curve line routes, generate measurement drawings, and perform synthetic imaging is limited
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments the measurement process into multiple components: ranging device for distance measurement, terminal apparatus for data processing, and AR device for visualization. This segmentation allows each component to specialize in specific functions, enabling comprehensive curve line measurement and measurement drawing generation while maintaining measurement accuracy.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent transitions from traditional 2D measurement displays to 3D augmented reality visualization. By overlaying measurement drawings and route information onto the real-world environment through AR, the system preserves complete route information including curve lines while providing enhanced spatial understanding and visualization capabilities.
2Productivity
If conventional ranging devices are used, then basic ranging function is available, but real-time monitoring and control of external devices on a map is not possible
Solution Approach 1:
The patent merges the ranging device, terminal apparatus, and AR device into an integrated system. The ranging device collects distance data, the terminal apparatus processes and stores it along with external device information, and the AR device visualizes everything in real-time. This integration enables simultaneous measurement, monitoring, and control functions, improving productivity while maintaining ease of operation through unified AR interface.
Solution Approach 2:
The terminal apparatus serves multiple functions: storing measurement data, managing external device information, establishing mapping relationships, and supporting AR visualization. This multi-functionality allows the system to perform comprehensive monitoring and control operations without requiring separate dedicated devices, thereby improving working efficiency.
3Loss of information
If measurement data is collected and processed, then measurement drawings can be generated, but enhanced visualizability and AR integration are achieved
Solution Approach 1:
The terminal apparatus acts as an intermediary between the ranging device and AR device. It collects measurement data from the ranging device, processes and stores it, establishes mapping relationships with external devices, and transmits processed information to the AR device for visualization. This intermediary role manages system complexity by centralizing data processing while enabling enhanced visual information delivery through AR.

AI summary
An interaction method implemented by a terminal apparatus includes: obtaining an interface underlayer of a space that has direction information and distance information; establishing a mapping relationship between an external device and an identification corresponding to the external device marked on the interface underlayer, the identification indicating a physical location of the external device; receiving, from the external device, property information of the external device; obtaining an image of a real scene in the space; determining that a target object is depicted in the image of the real scene; determining target presentation information of the target object according to the property information of the external device; and displaying the image of the real scene together with the target presentation information, the target presentation information being added to the image as an augmented reality (AR) mark at an image location corresponding to the target object.
