VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Ease of operation

If vision-based vibration measurement is used to achieve non-contact measurement with long monitoring distance, then measurement accessibility and safety are improved, but camera perturbation from external vibration noise degrades measurement precision

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvenon-contact measurement capabilityVSAvoidvibration measurement accuracy
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSMeasurement precision

Solution Approach 1:

The patent extracts and eliminates the camera perturbation component from the measured signal by identifying it as a separate signal source. Through signal decomposition and feature extraction, the camera's vibration-induced noise is separated from the actual structural vibration signal, allowing the true vibration characteristics to be recovered without the contaminating camera perturbations.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #2Taking out (Extraction)

Solution Approach 2:

The patent introduces an intermediary processing system consisting of signal decomposition modules, frequency domain analysis units, and perturbation elimination algorithms. This intermediary processing chain transforms the contaminated signal into a cleaned signal by inserting multiple processing stages between the camera capture and final measurement output.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

Solution Approach 1:

The patent segments the signal processing into distinct functional modules: signal decomposition, frequency domain analysis, perturbation identification, and signal reconstruction. Each module handles a specific aspect of the processing task, allowing for optimized computation and potential parallel execution. The segmentation enables systematic processing while managing computational complexity through modular design.

Inventive Principle:
