Solution Overview

Problem

Existing information providing systems do not deliver content to users at appropriate times, leading to user discomfort as they provide information regardless of the user's needs or conditions.

Innovation Solution

An information providing system that includes a terminal device and an information processing device, where the terminal device acquires biological information from the user and transmits it to the processing device, which analyzes the user's condition and decides whether to provide content based on the analysis, ensuring timely and relevant content delivery.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Productivity

If content is provided to the user without considering user condition, then information can be delivered continuously, but the user feels troublesome and discomfort

Engineering Contradiction:

Improvecontent delivery frequencyVSAvoiduser discomfort

Core Design Contradiction:

ProductivityVSObject-affected harmful factors

Solution Approach 1:

The system acquires biological information from the user continuously and uses it as feedback to dynamically control content provision. The information provision unit decides whether to provide content based on the latest biological information, creating a closed-loop system that adapts to user state changes in real-time

Inventive Principle:

Principle #23Feedback

Solution Approach 2:

The system changes the parameter of content provision (from fixed/continuous to variable/conditional) based on biological information parameters. By monitoring physiological parameters and adjusting content delivery accordingly, the system transforms static information provision into a dynamic, adaptive process

Inventive Principle:

Principle #35Parameter changes

2Loss of information

If content is provided regardless of user need, then information availability is maximized, but timing appropriateness deteriorates

Engineering Contradiction:

Improveinformation availabilityVSAvoidcontent timing appropriateness

Core Design Contradiction:

Loss of informationVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs preliminary acquisition of biological information and analysis of user state before deciding on content provision. By preparing and analyzing user condition data in advance, the system can make informed decisions about timing and relevance of information delivery

Inventive Principle:

Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The system serves the user's information needs based on their own biological state rather than following a predetermined schedule. The content provision is self-adjusting according to real-time user condition, making the information delivery service adaptive to individual user requirements

Inventive Principle:

Principle #25Self-service

AI summary

An information providing system includes: a terminal device that acquires biological information as information on a user and transmits the biological information; and an information processing device, wherein the information processing device receives the biological information from the terminal device, analyzes condition of the user based on the biological information, judges whether content should be provided to the terminal device or not based on a result of the analyzing, and provides the content to the terminal device when judging that the content should be provided to the terminal device.
