Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Measurement precision
If conventional digital twin-based monitoring techniques are used to monitor facility state, then real-time facility health confirmation is improved, but the ability to monitor situations inside or around the facility deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The patent combines conventional digital twin facility monitoring with field agent mobile terminal data (location, video, status) to create a unified control collaboration system. This merging allows simultaneous monitoring of both facility state and surrounding situations, resolving the contradiction between specialized facility monitoring and versatile situational awareness.
Solution Approach 2:
The control server is designed to handle multiple types of data from diverse sources including facility sensors, mobile terminals, and communication systems. This multi-functional capability enables the system to monitor both facility health and surrounding situations through a single integrated platform.
2Reliability
If digital twin CPS model is used for simulated operation and maintenance, then safety and convenience are improved, but the integration of field agent information with control room operations deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The system establishes bidirectional communication between field agents via mobile terminals and the control room. Field agent observations, location data, and status information are continuously fed back to the control server, enabling real-time integration of field information with control room operations while maintaining the safety benefits of digital twin simulation.
Solution Approach 2:
The control server acts as an intermediary that receives and processes data from both the digital twin CPS model and field agent mobile terminals. This mediator integrates disparate information sources, ensuring that field agent information is effectively combined with simulated operation data without losing critical information.
3Area of stationary object
If conventional CCTV-based control is used for monitoring accidents and disasters, then coverage is improved, but the practical benefit compared to digital twin integration deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The patent merges digital twin model objects with real-time field agent video and location data to create an enhanced monitoring system. This combination provides both wide area coverage through the digital twin model and practical control benefits through integrated field agent information, surpassing conventional CCTV capabilities.
Solution Approach 2:
The system adds a new dimension to conventional CCTV monitoring by integrating three-dimensional digital twin model objects with field agent data. This dimensional enhancement transforms two-dimensional video surveillance into a multi-dimensional control system that provides superior situational awareness and control efficiency.

AI summary
The present invention relates to a control collaboration method for an area that requires a patrol or inspection work, such as an urban area or a large building, in which a control room computer 10 and a mobile terminal 50 of a field agent are connected to a control server 30, and a CPS server 40 equipped with a CPS model 41 is connected to the control server 30, so that location information and video information 17 transmitted from the mobile terminal 50 are output to be combined with a model object 18 provided by the CPS model 41. Through the present invention, as information can be shared smoothly between field agents and the control room in performing control works in a wide area such as a large building, an urban area, or the like, the field agents may faithfully utilize information provided by the digital twin CPS server 40, and control room workers may accurately and quickly grasp the situations at the scene.
