Solution Overview

Problem

Developing and examining specific modules in autonomous driving solutions is challenging due to the difficulty in acquiring and integrating remaining modules, which are not developed by the company, and adjusting them according to the company's requirements.

Innovation Solution

A total infrastructure environment is provided using a master protocol and generative artificial intelligence to derive and integrate remaining modules with a client's specific module, generating an interface combination module to ensure seamless operation and development.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If a company develops only specific modules in autonomous driving solutions, then the company can specialize in particular module development, but the company faces difficulty in acquiring and integrating remaining modules and adjusting them according to company requirements

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvemodule specializationVSAvoidintegration complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent introduces an intermediary integration platform that mediates between specialized module developers and the overall autonomous driving system. This platform provides standardized interfaces and protocols that enable seamless integration of modules from different developers, resolving the complexity issue while maintaining specialization benefits.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

Solution Approach 2:

The integration platform is designed with universal functionality to handle multiple types of autonomous driving modules through standardized interfaces. This allows the system to accommodate various specialized modules from different developers without requiring custom integration logic for each module type.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)

2Productivity

If external modules are acquired for development or examination, then the module functionality can be obtained, but the modules cannot be easily manipulated and adjusted according to company wishes

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedevelopment efficiencyVSAvoidmodule adjustability
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The patent segments the autonomous driving system into independent, modular components with well-defined interfaces. Each module can be developed, tested, and adjusted independently while maintaining compatibility with the overall system through standardized connection protocols.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The integration platform provides dynamic configuration capabilities that allow modules to be adjusted, enabled, or disabled based on specific development or operational requirements. This dynamic approach enables flexible manipulation of external modules without requiring complete system reconfiguration.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

3Reliability

If all modules are integrated and operated within one platform, then the modules can exchange data organically, but it is not easy for development companies to acquire and manipulate remaining modules

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedata exchange reliabilityVSAvoidplatform acquisition difficulty
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent employs parameter-based configuration and standardized interface protocols that define how modules communicate and interact. By changing and adjusting these parameters through the integration platform, modules can be dynamically configured to exchange data reliably while simplifying the overall platform integration process.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes
