Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Measurement precision

If authenticity services are performed in person, then measurement precision and reliability are improved, but time consumption and operational complexity increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveauthenticity determination accuracyVSAvoidservice time
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The patent replaces the mechanical/in-person authenticity verification process with an automated digital system that uses machine learning models, image processing algorithms, and database queries to determine asset authenticity, eliminating the need for physical presence while maintaining verification accuracy

Inventive Principle:
Principle #28Mechanics substitution (Replace mechanical system)

Solution Approach 2:

The system creates and analyzes digital copies of physical assets through image capture and data extraction, allowing authenticity verification without handling the actual physical asset, thus reducing time consumption while maintaining measurement precision through digital analysis

Inventive Principle:
Principle #26Copying

2Measurement precision

If more data is collected for authenticity analysis, then measurement precision is improved, but device complexity and processing requirements increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveauthenticity determination accuracyVSAvoidsystem complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent divides the authenticity verification process into separate modular components: image capture module, data extraction module, machine learning analysis module, and database query module, allowing systematic processing of multiple data types without overwhelming complexity

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The system introduces a machine learning model as an intermediary that processes and synthesizes multiple data sources (images, metadata, database records) into a unified authenticity determination, simplifying the complexity of analyzing diverse data types

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

AI summary

A system for determining an authenticity of an asset includes one or more hardware processors. The system also includes a non-transitory memory, the non-transitory memory storing instructions that, when executed by the one or hardware processors, causes the one or more hardware processors to perform actions. The actions include receiving an asset, wherein the asset includes a digital asset or a digital representation of a physical asset. The actions also include receiving an input related to the asset to assist in determining the authenticity of the asset. The actions further include utilizing an augmented intelligence module to analyze the asset and to determine the authenticity of the asset based on the analysis of the asset and the received input.
