Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Ease of operation

If manual or WIFI control methods are used for wearable display devices, then the device can be controlled to display, but the control process is too complicated and does not meet the need for intelligentized control

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecontrol convenienceVSAvoidcontrol process complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent replaces manual mechanical control and WIFI-based control systems with a brain wave signal-based control system. The brain control circuit detects brain wave signals from the user's brain activity and converts them into control instructions, eliminating the need for manual buttons, switches, or complex WIFI control procedures. This substitution of control mechanisms directly resolves the contradiction by making control intuitive and simple while reducing the complexity of the control process.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #28Mechanics substitution (Replace mechanical system)

Solution Approach 2:

The patent implements self-service control by allowing the user's brain waves to directly generate control instructions without requiring external intervention or complex操作流程. The brain control circuit continuously monitors brain wave signals and automatically generates appropriate control commands based on the user's mental state, enabling the display device to respond autonomously to user thoughts rather than requiring manual or network-based control.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

2Extent of automation

If brain wave control is implemented, then intelligentized control is achieved, but additional components (brain control circuit, display control circuit) are added to the device

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveautomatic control capabilityVSAvoidcircuit components
Core Design Contradiction:
Extent of automationVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent merges the brain control circuit and display control circuit into an integrated control system that works together seamlessly. The brain control circuit detects brain wave signals and generates control instructions, which are then automatically processed by the display control circuit to adjust display parameters such as viewing angle and brightness. This merging of control functions into a unified system achieves high automation while minimizing the practical complexity increase, as the circuits work together as a cohesive unit rather than separate add-on components.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)
