Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Measurement precision
If position information corresponding to predetermined array patterns is used to control moving bodies, then motion control precision is improved, but the system complexity increases due to the need for pattern recognition and information processing
Solution Approach 1:
The patent uses a camera to capture an image of the array pattern on the play field, creating a visual copy of the position information. This image is then processed to extract position data, avoiding the need for complex direct sensing mechanisms while achieving precise motion control through image analysis and pattern recognition
Solution Approach 2:
The patent introduces an image processing intermediary between the array pattern and the motion control system. The camera captures the pattern, the processor analyzes the image to determine position information, and then controls the moving body based on this extracted data, simplifying the overall system architecture by breaking down the complex recognition task into manageable stages
2Measurement precision
If image processing is used to detect position information from array patterns, then position detection accuracy is improved, but the processing time increases
Solution Approach 1:
The array pattern is pre-designed with specific geometric characteristics and spatial arrangements that facilitate rapid identification. The preprocessing step involves detecting these predetermined features in the captured image, which are optimized to be quickly recognized and processed, reducing the time required for position determination while maintaining high accuracy
