Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Measurement precision

If traditional image recovery and processing methods are used to detect blur objects, then object identification can be performed, but processing time and computing resource consumption increase significantly

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveobject identification accuracyVSAvoidprocessing time
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs preliminary classification of image regions to identify potential blur objects before applying computationally intensive recovery algorithms. By pre-segmenting the image and marking regions with blur characteristics, the system prepares data structures and identifies targets in advance, reducing the time required for subsequent detailed processing and object identification.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The image processing pipeline is segmented into distinct stages: initial blur detection, selective region identification, targeted recovery processing, and object identification. By dividing the processing into segments and applying different processing intensities to different regions (full recovery only for identified blur objects, simplified processing for general areas), the system reduces overall processing time while maintaining identification accuracy.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

2Measurement precision

If traditional image recovery and processing methods are used to detect blur objects, then object identification can be performed, but computing resource consumption increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveobject identification accuracyVSAvoidcomputing resource consumption
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSUse of energy by moving object

Solution Approach 1:

The system applies different processing qualities and computational intensities to different regions of the image. Full image recovery and intensive processing are applied only to regions identified as containing blur objects, while other regions receive simplified or no recovery processing. This localized approach maintains object identification accuracy for blur objects while significantly reducing overall computing resource consumption.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #3Local quality

Solution Approach 2:

Instead of performing complete image recovery on the entire image, the system performs partial recovery only on specific regions where blur objects are detected. This partial action approach applies computational resources selectively and proportionally to the actual need, avoiding the excessive resource consumption of full-image processing while maintaining sufficient accuracy for identification purposes.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #16Partial or excessive action

3Measurement precision

If complete image recovery is performed before object detection, then accurate object identification can be achieved, but processing complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveobject detection accuracyVSAvoidprocessing complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs preliminary blur detection and region classification before initiating complex recovery processes. By identifying blur object regions in advance through simplified initial processing, the system prepares targeted processing masks and parameters, reducing the complexity of subsequent recovery operations. The preliminary action creates a roadmap that guides the complex processing only where necessary.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The processing pipeline is segmented into multiple stages with increasing complexity: simple blur detection, region selection, targeted recovery processing, and object identification. Each segment handles a specific task with appropriate complexity level, avoiding the need to apply maximum complexity throughout the entire processing chain. This segmentation reduces overall system complexity while maintaining detection accuracy.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

AI summary

A blur object detection system includes a memory, an image capturing device, and a processor. The image capturing device is configured to capture a dynamic image, in which the dynamic image includes a blur object and a general object. The processor is coupled to the image capturing device and the memory, and configured to simultaneously or non-simultaneously perform image compression, blur object detection, and general object detection based on the dynamic image to obtain an image compression file, a blur object position of the blur object in the dynamic image, and a general object position of the general object in the dynamic image, and store the image compression file, the blur object position, and the general object position to the memory.
