Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If conventional career exploration methods use standardized psychological tests and aptitude assessments, then the exploration process is simple and structured, but the ability to reflect individual user characteristics is limited

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveability to reflect individual user characteristicsVSAvoidcomplexity of exploration process
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent implements dynamic adaptation by generating different survey questions and scenarios based on real-time analysis of user responses. The system adjusts the exploration path dynamically according to user characteristics detected during interaction, transforming the static standardized tests into a dynamic personalized experience that adapts to each user's unique profile and responses.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

Solution Approach 2:

The system changes parameters such as question wording, scenario complexity, and assessment criteria based on user characteristics. By modifying these parameters in real-time according to detected user traits and responses, the system maintains simplicity while enhancing individualization, resolving the contradiction between standardized structure and personalized reflection.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

2Ease of operation

If online career exploration platforms provide user-driven information searches, then information accessibility is improved, but interactive elements and personalized experiences are lacking

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveinformation accessibilityVSAvoidinteractive elements and personalized experiences
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSAdaptability or versatility

Solution Approach 1:

The patent incorporates feedback mechanisms where the system analyzes user responses to survey questions and scenarios, then uses this feedback to generate personalized recommendations and adjust subsequent interaction. This closed-loop feedback system maintains ease of operation through intuitive interfaces while adding sophisticated personalization and interactivity based on real-time user data analysis.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

Solution Approach 2:

The system enables users to drive their own exploration process by providing intuitive self-service tools for information search and career assessment. Users can independently interact with the system without requiring professional counselors, maintaining ease of operation while the system automatically adapts to provide personalized experiences through AI-driven analysis and generation.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

3Adaptability or versatility

If gamification technology is applied to enhance user engagement, then user motivation is improved, but the ability to provide diverse game-like experiences for career exploration is limited

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvediverse game-like experiencesVSAvoidcomplexity of gamification system
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent segments the career exploration process into distinct gamified modules such as scenario-based decision-making tasks, virtual career simulations, and interactive assessment games. Each module represents a specific aspect of career exploration and can be independently designed and executed, allowing diverse game-like experiences without requiring a monolithic complex system.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The system prepares and generates gamified scenarios and situations in advance based on user profiles and career exploration goals. By pre-generating diverse game-like experiences tailored to individual users, the system provides variety and engagement without requiring real-time complex computation during user interaction, thus managing system complexity effectively.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

AI summary

A method, server, and system for exploring personalized career paths based on gamification by a career exploration server. The method includes accumulating career information regarding at least one of a user's tendencies, aptitudes, and preferences in a stepwise manner through survey conducted in a pre-prepared question-and-answer format to support the user's career exploration, generating, at a specific point in time during the survey, gamified situational elements related to career information that affects following process of the survey by a generative artificial intelligence model based on the accumulated career information, providing a gamified simulation to test user's ability to respond to each situation based on the generated gamified situational elements, and verifying user's accumulated career information based on results of the gamified simulation, and composing the following process of the survey based on verification results.
