Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Loss of time
If users manually search for movies or facilities using terminal devices, then they can find available options, but it takes time and effort
Solution Approach 1:
The system automatically captures images of users, estimates their attributes, and extracts suitable movie candidates without requiring user input or manual searching. The display control unit then presents personalized recommendations, enabling the system to serve itself and the user simultaneously by eliminating the need for active user search behavior
Solution Approach 2:
The system performs preliminary actions by capturing user images and estimating attributes before the user even knows what they want to watch. By pre-processing user data and having movie information ready in advance, the system eliminates the need for users to manually search through available movies
2Ease of operation
If the system displays personalized movie recommendations based on user attributes, then user convenience is improved, but system complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The system introduces an intermediary processing layer that includes a first estimation unit to analyze user attributes from captured images and an extraction unit to match these attributes with suitable movies. This intermediary layer automatically handles the complexity of personalization, providing convenient recommendations without requiring the user to interact with complex system components
