Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Manufacturing precision

If AR rendering is performed on UE (user equipment), then rendering quality can be maintained, but UE performance requirements increase and cause processing bottlenecks

Engineering Contradiction:
Improverendering qualityVSAvoidUE performance requirements
Core Design Contradiction:
Manufacturing precisionVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent divides the AR rendering process into two segments: server-side rendering (generating base images) and client-side composition (overlaying on real-world views). This segmentation allows complex rendering to be performed on the server while the UE only handles lightweight composition tasks, resolving the contradiction between rendering quality and UE performance requirements.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

2Device complexity

If split rendering is implemented with server-UE communication, then rendering complexity is reduced on UE, but latency increases due to communication overhead

Engineering Contradiction:
ImproveUE processing complexityVSAvoidrendering latency
Core Design Contradiction:
Device complexityVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The patent performs preliminary rendering actions on the server side to generate AR images in advance before they are needed at the UE. By pre-computing and preparing rendering content on the server, the system reduces the time required for real-time processing at the UE, thereby mitigating latency introduced by server-UE communication.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

3Speed

If user pose predictions are used for AR rendering, then rendering speed improves, but distortion occurs due to unpredictable user poses

Engineering Contradiction:
Improverendering speedVSAvoidstereoscopic effect accuracy
Core Design Contradiction:
SpeedVSManufacturing precision

Solution Approach 1:

The patent implements a dynamic approach by continuously tracking and predicting user poses rather than using static pre-rendered images. The system adapts rendering content based on predicted user movements, allowing it to maintain rendering speed while minimizing distortion through real-time pose estimation and dynamic image adjustment.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

4Adaptability or versatility

If multiple poses are pre-rendered to handle user movement, then rendering adaptability improves, but data transmission volume and processing overhead increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvepose adaptation capabilityVSAvoiddata transmission volume
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSQuantity of substance

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies local quality by rendering different levels of detail for different regions of the AR scene based on predicted user focus areas. Instead of uniformly rendering all possible poses with equal quality, the system concentrates rendering resources on critical regions and angles, reducing overall data transmission volume while maintaining adaptability for user movement.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #3Local quality
