Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If the AR application displays the same information every time it is used, then the information accuracy is maintained, but the user engagement decreases due to the repetitive and troublesome nature of the application
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies dynamics by making the AR content adaptive and variable based on user behavior. The system dynamically changes the displayed information based on capture history, transforming the static, repetitive display into a dynamic, personalized experience that maintains reliability while improving user engagement.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent changes the parameter of content variability by introducing a mechanism that selects different AR contents based on capture history. This parameter change allows the system to maintain information accuracy for each trigger while varying the overall content presentation to reduce repetitiveness and improve user engagement.
2Measurement precision
If the AR application requires users to manually capture images, then the trigger recognition accuracy is improved, but the operational complexity increases and user fatigue is caused
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies self-service by enabling the system to automatically capture images using the camera based on capture history, eliminating the need for manual user operation. This maintains trigger recognition accuracy while reducing operational complexity and user fatigue.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent applies preliminary action by pre-capturing images and storing them in capture history before they are needed for AR content selection. This preliminary capture action reduces the need for repeated manual capturing, thereby maintaining accuracy while simplifying user operations.
3Ease of operation
If the system provides varied AR content based on capture history, then user engagement is improved, but the system complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies feedback by using capture history as a feedback mechanism to select appropriate AR content. This feedback loop allows the system to provide varied content that improves user engagement while managing complexity through a structured approach to content selection based on historical data.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent applies universality by designing a content selection system that can handle multiple triggers and various AR content types through a single unified mechanism. This multi-functional approach improves user engagement with varied content while controlling system complexity through a universal selection framework.
4Reliability
If the same trigger always displays the same AR content, then the system reliability is maintained, but the adaptability to user behavior decreases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies dynamics by making the AR content selection adaptive based on capture history. The system maintains reliability by ensuring consistent trigger recognition while adapting the displayed content based on user behavior patterns, thereby improving versatility without sacrificing reliability.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent changes the parameter of content selection by introducing variability based on capture history. This allows the system to maintain reliable trigger recognition while adapting the AR content displayed to user behavior, thereby improving adaptability while preserving system reliability.
