Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Manufacturing precision
If ray tracing rendering technology is used to improve image rendering quality, then picture quality and visual reality are significantly enhanced, but computing power consumption increases and real-time rendering becomes difficult on mobile terminals
Solution Approach 1:
The rendering process is segmented into two parts: complex ray tracing computations are performed on the cloud service end, while simpler subsequent processing is handled by the mobile terminal. This division allows high-quality rendering without overloading the mobile device's computing resources.
Solution Approach 2:
The cloud service end acts as an intermediary between the mobile terminal and the final rendered image. The terminal sends control information to the cloud, which performs the heavy computational work and returns intermediate rendering results, effectively mediating the computing power gap.
2Manufacturing precision
If cloud service end performs computing processing of visual features, then image rendering quality is improved, but bandwidth consumption increases
Solution Approach 1:
The cloud service end performs only the necessary ray tracing computations for visual features, not complete rendering of all image elements. This partial action approach reduces the amount of data that needs to be transmitted, thereby reducing bandwidth consumption while still achieving quality improvement.
