Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Measurement precision

If multiple buttons are used to control motion skill release, then the motion skill can be released in a specified direction, but the operation becomes cumbersome and human-computer interaction efficiency decreases

Engineering Contradiction:

Improvedirection control precisionVSAvoidoperation simplicity

Core Design Contradiction:

Measurement precisionVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The patent combines multiple control functions (direction indication and skill release) into a single composite skill control component. This composite control integrates the directional indicator and release button functionality, allowing users to control both direction and skill execution through one unified interface rather than coordinating multiple separate buttons, thereby simplifying operations while maintaining precise directional control

Inventive Principle:

Principle #5Merging (Combining)

Solution Approach 2:

The composite skill control serves multiple functions simultaneously: it indicates direction, allows direction adjustment, and triggers skill release. This multi-functional design eliminates the need for separate controls for each function, reducing the complexity of human-computer interaction while preserving the ability to precisely control motion direction

Inventive Principle:

Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)

2Measurement precision

If multiple buttons are used for skill release control, then directional motion skill can be achieved, but hardware resource utilization becomes low and data processing burden increases

Engineering Contradiction:

Improvedirection control precisionVSAvoidhardware resource utilization

Core Design Contradiction:

Measurement precisionVSProductivity

Solution Approach 1:

By merging multiple control functions into a single composite skill control, the system reduces the number of control events and data processing operations required. Instead of processing separate signals from multiple buttons, the system handles one unified control input, thereby reducing data processing burden and improving hardware resource utilization while maintaining precise directional control capabilities

Inventive Principle:

Principle #5Merging (Combining)

AI summary

This application provides a control method of a virtual skill performed by an electronic device. The method includes: rendering a skill control of a virtual scene, the skill control corresponding to a motion skill of a target virtual object; rendering a composite skill control containing a direction indication identification when a trigger operation for the skill control is received; and controlling the target virtual object to release the motion skill along a first direction according to a current property of the direction indication identification in the composite skill control in response to a first skill release instruction triggered on the composite skill control.
