Solution Overview

Problem

Existing systems for centralized management of biological information from multiple subjects lack convenience, particularly in terms of flexibility and user interface, leading to reduced browsability and visibility of data.

Innovation Solution

An information terminal equipped with a wireless communication device for receiving sensor signals and a display that organizes biological information into separate areas for each subject, using a processor to associate sensor signals with subjects and prioritize visibility based on user input and sensor density, allowing for intuitive navigation and management.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Quantity of substance

If biological information from multiple subjects is displayed in a centralized system, then the quantity of information managed increases, but the browsability and visibility of individual subject data deteriorates

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvequantity of biological informationVSAvoidbrowsability and visibility
Core Design Contradiction:
Quantity of substanceVSLoss of information

Solution Approach 1:

The display screen is divided into multiple display areas, with each area dedicated to showing biological information of a specific subject. This segmentation allows simultaneous presentation of multiple subjects' data while maintaining clear visual separation and ease of browsing for each individual subject.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

2Ease of operation

If display areas are generated for each subject, then the organization of information improves, but the device complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveorganization of informationVSAvoidcomplexity of display management
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The system automatically generates display areas for each subject and associates sensor signals with the corresponding subjects without requiring manual configuration. The processor autonomously manages the creation, assignment, and updating of display areas based on received sensor data, eliminating the need for complex manual setup and reducing operational complexity.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service
