Solution Overview

Problem

Insurance providers face challenges in adjusting insurance policies and product recommendations due to changes in user behavior after policy determination, necessitating a system to continuously monitor and correlate gameplay, fitness, and streaming data to improve policy suitability.

Innovation Solution

A risk analysis system that collects and analyzes gameplay, fitness, and streaming data from various sensors to generate behavior models, identifying correlations and adjusting policies or device parameters to align with user behavior, recommending products or services, and limiting access to certain activities to modify behavior.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If insurance policies are determined based on initial user behavior data, then policy determination is efficient and straightforward, but the policies become outdated when user behavior changes

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvepolicy suitabilityVSAvoidpolicy update delay
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The system implements continuous feedback loops by monitoring user behavior across multiple applications (gaming, fitness, streaming) and automatically updating insurance policies based on detected behavior changes. Sensor data from devices is fed back to the insurance system in real-time, enabling dynamic policy adjustment without manual intervention.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

Solution Approach 2:

The system performs preliminary actions by establishing baseline behavior models during the policy determination phase, which are then used to detect deviations. Behavior profiles are created in advance using initial data, enabling the system to quickly identify when users change their behavior patterns and trigger policy updates.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

2Reliability

If multiple data sources (gaming, fitness, streaming) are continuously monitored to track behavior changes, then policy suitability improves, but system complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvebehavior tracking accuracyVSAvoidsystem architecture
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The system employs a universal behavior analysis platform that handles multiple data sources (gaming applications, fitness trackers, streaming services) through a single integrated architecture. This multi-functional system processes diverse data types using common analytical methods, reducing the need for separate specialized systems for each data source.

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

Solution Approach 2:

Behavior profiles serve as intermediary representations that simplify complex multi-source data. The system creates abstracted behavior models that mediate between raw sensor data from various applications and the insurance policy determination system, making the overall architecture more manageable by decoupling data collection from analysis.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

3Loss of information

If sensor data is collected from multiple devices to identify behavior correlations, then user behavior understanding improves, but data privacy concerns increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvebehavior insightVSAvoidprivacy risk
Core Design Contradiction:
Loss of informationVSObject-affected harmful factors

Solution Approach 1:

The system extracts only the essential behavior patterns needed for insurance determination from the collected sensor data, separating relevant behavioral insights from unnecessary personal information. By taking out only the critical behavior correlations (such as activity levels, routine patterns, and risk behaviors), the system maintains insurance relevance while reducing privacy exposure.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #2Taking out (Extraction)

Solution Approach 2:

The system applies different processing qualities to different data elements based on their sensitivity and relevance. Highly sensitive personal information receives enhanced privacy protection through anonymization or aggregation, while less sensitive behavioral patterns are analyzed in greater detail for insurance purposes, creating a differentiated privacy approach.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #3Local quality

AI summary

A risk analysis system is configured to collect and monitor sensor data associated with a user to generate an insurance policy or recommend products/services that may be better suited for the user based on the user's gameplay data, fitness data, streaming data, outdoor activity data, location data, etc. The risk analysis system is configured to correlate all the sensor data and control operations of devices to discourage behavior that may increase risk of an accident or other suitable insurance liabilities.
