Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If a sensor reads a predetermined array pattern to acquire position information, then the moving body can be controlled to move in real space, but the system complexity increases due to the need for pattern recognition and coordinate transformation
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies preliminary action by pre-defining array patterns with embedded position information and control information before the moving body operates. The patterns are prepared in advance on the play field, containing all necessary coordinate and motion data, so that during operation, the sensor simply needs to read the pre-prepared patterns without complex real-time calculations.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent uses the array pattern as an intermediary between the physical play field and the control system. The pattern acts as a mediator that encodes position and motion information in a format that the sensor can easily read, avoiding the need for complex direct coordinate measurement and transformation systems.
2Adaptability or versatility
If the array pattern includes both position information and control information, then the functionality is enhanced, but the pattern area requirements increase
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies local quality by dividing the array pattern into different functional regions: some areas contain position information while other areas contain control information. This allows different parts of the pattern to serve different purposes, enabling enhanced functionality without requiring a uniformly large pattern area, as each region is optimized for its specific function.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent segments the array pattern information into distinct components - position information and control information - that can be distributed across different areas of the play field. This segmentation allows the system to access both types of information without requiring them to occupy the same physical space, effectively managing the area requirement.
