Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing cosmetic providing systems face challenges in managing and reproducing customized cosmetics effectively, as users often struggle to recall necessary information for repeat purchases and experience inaccuracies in color reproduction and simulation results, especially when used in regions with different characteristics.
Innovation Solution
A cosmetic providing system that includes a dispenser and a terminal generating a code containing information on cosmetics, allowing users to input current and target colors, which is then decoded by the dispenser to provide customized cosmetics, incorporating user information and simulating expected results with improved accuracy.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Manufacturing precision
If users input detailed information manually each time, then customization accuracy is improved, but operation convenience deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The system stores user information, skin characteristics, and cosmetic preferences in advance. When users want repeat cosmetics, the dispenser automatically retrieves this pre-stored information to generate the code, eliminating the need for manual re-input while maintaining customization accuracy.
Solution Approach 2:
The system creates a digital copy of user information and cosmetic specifications that can be reused across multiple dispensing sessions. This copied information is encoded and transmitted to the dispenser, allowing accurate reproduction of customized cosmetics without requiring users to re-enter data.
2Speed
If simulation results are displayed based on limited data, then processing speed is improved, but measurement precision deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs preliminary measurements and stores skin characteristics, color properties, and cosmetic formulation data in advance. This pre-collected comprehensive data enables accurate simulation results to be generated quickly without requiring extensive real-time processing.
Solution Approach 2:
The system compares simulation results with actual cosmetic application outcomes and uses this feedback to refine future simulations. This iterative process improves color reproduction accuracy while maintaining efficient processing speeds through optimized algorithms.
