Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If a touch screen is used as the primary input means, then the mobile terminal can perform various functions with high performance, but elaborate manipulation becomes difficult or inconvenient
Solution Approach 1:
The patent combines the mobile terminal with an auxiliary control device that provides physical control buttons and a joystick in addition to the touch screen. This merging of touch interface and physical interface allows users to switch between manipulation methods, enabling elaborate control through physical buttons when needed while maintaining the high functionality of the touch screen.
Solution Approach 2:
The auxiliary control device provides multiple input methods (physical buttons, joystick, touch screen) that can be used for different types of operations. This multi-functionality allows the system to handle both simple navigation and elaborate manipulation tasks through appropriate input methods, resolving the contradiction between versatility and ease of operation.
2Duration of action of moving object
If the mobile terminal is used for prolonged periods, then various functions can be performed, but power shortages and heat generation cause performance deterioration
Solution Approach 1:
The auxiliary control device acts as an intermediary that enables more efficient interaction with the mobile terminal. By providing physical buttons and joystick for common operations, it reduces the need for prolonged touch screen usage and intensive processing, thereby reducing heat generation and power consumption while maintaining reliable performance over extended periods.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent replaces virtual touch interface operations with physical mechanical controls (buttons, joystick). This mechanical substitution allows for more efficient input methods that reduce processing demands on the mobile terminal, thereby reducing heat generation and power consumption during prolonged usage while maintaining performance stability.
3Ease of operation
If an auxiliary control device is added to provide elaborate manipulation, then control convenience is improved, but device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The auxiliary control device is designed as a separate, detachable unit that can be attached to or separated from the mobile terminal. This segmentation allows the control functionality to be added only when needed, reducing overall system complexity while providing elaborate manipulation options. The modular design enables users to have control convenience without permanently increasing device complexity.
