Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If conventional HIDs are used without AI integration, then device complexity is low, but adaptability to user behavior is poor

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveadaptability to user behaviorVSAvoiddevice complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The HID transitions from a static device to a dynamic one by continuously monitoring user interactions and adapting its behavior in real-time. The device dynamically adjusts its operational characteristics based on detected user patterns, making the adaptability improvement while managing complexity through incremental adjustments rather than complete system redesign

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

Solution Approach 2:

The HID incorporates AI models that enable it to automatically analyze user behavior patterns and adjust its own operation without requiring external intervention. The device performs self-learning and self-adaptation, improving versatility while containing complexity growth through autonomous operation

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

2Measurement precision

If sensors and AI models are integrated into HIDs, then user interaction analysis capability is enhanced, but device complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveuser interaction analysis capabilityVSAvoiddevice complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The HID system is segmented into distinct functional modules: sensor components for data collection, AI model components for analysis, and control components for action execution. This modular segmentation allows each component to be optimized independently, enhancing measurement precision while managing overall device complexity through organized modularity

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The integrated sensor and AI model system is designed to perform multiple functions: capturing various user interactions, analyzing different behavior patterns, and adapting to diverse user preferences. This multi-functionality approach improves measurement precision across multiple dimensions while containing complexity growth through shared processing infrastructure

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

3Loss of information

If HIDs transmit detailed sensor data to IHS, then information accuracy is high, but data transmission volume increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveinformation accuracyVSAvoiddata transmission volume
Core Design Contradiction:
Loss of informationVSQuantity of substance

Solution Approach 1:

The HID extracts only the essential and relevant features from raw sensor data before transmission to the IHS. By applying AI-based feature extraction, the device removes redundant information while preserving critical user interaction patterns, thereby maintaining information accuracy while significantly reducing data transmission volume

Inventive Principle:
Principle #2Taking out (Extraction)

Solution Approach 2:

The HID transforms raw sensor data into processed parameters and features that capture the essential information content in a compressed form. By changing the data representation from raw sensor readings to meaningful behavioral parameters, the system preserves information accuracy while reducing the quantity of transmitted data

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

AI summary

Systems and methods for intelligent Human Interface Devices (HIDs). In some embodiments, an HID may include a processor and a memory coupled to the processor, the memory having program instructions stored thereon that, upon execution, cause the HID to: receive data from a sensor coupled to the processor; and transmit an indication of an input received by the processor to an Information Handling System (IHS) coupled to the HID in response to a determination, by the processor, that the data matches a biometric profile.
