Biometric Apparatus Magnetic Detector Intermediary Positioning
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing biometric apparatuses require subject movement and complex mechanisms to attach and detach radiation detectors, leading to potential misalignment and inaccurate superimposition of morphological images and biomagnetism information.
Innovation Solution
A biometric apparatus configuration where the magnetic detector is placed between the radiation detector and the irradiation device, allowing the radiation detector to be attached and detached without moving the subject, eliminating the need for subject movement mechanisms and reducing misalignment risks.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If the radiation detector is detachably attached to the biometric apparatus, then the apparatus can be operated in different configurations, but the subject must be moved which requires complex mechanisms and may cause misalignment
Solution Approach 1:
The magnetic detector is positioned between the radiation detector and the subject, serving as an intermediary that enables the radiation detector to be attached or detached without requiring subject movement. This intermediary positioning allows configuration changes while maintaining subject stability.
2Adaptability or versatility
If the subject is moved to attach or detach the radiation detector, then the detector can be repositioned, but the position may become misaligned causing inaccurate superimposition
Solution Approach 1:
The magnetic detector acts as a stable reference intermediary positioned between the radiation detector and subject. This allows the radiation detector to be repositioned or attached/detached without moving the subject, thereby maintaining alignment accuracy and enabling accurate superimposition of morphological images with biomagnetism information.
3Adaptability or versatility
If a mechanism for moving the subject is added to the apparatus, then the radiation detector can be attached and detached, but the apparatus complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
Instead of adding complex subject movement mechanisms, the patent uses the magnetic detector as a stationary intermediary component positioned between the radiation detector and subject. This approach enables detector attachment and detachment capabilities while keeping the apparatus structure simple, as no subject movement mechanism is required.
