Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If vibration components are used to provide haptic feedback, then user experience is enhanced, but vibration delay occurs resulting in less desirable user experience

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvehaptic feedback qualityVSAvoidvibration delay
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs preliminary action by determining and executing the first vibration mode based on predefined parameters before contact parameters are obtained. This allows the vibration component to start vibrating immediately using predefined characteristics, eliminating the delay that would occur if the system waited for contact parameters to be fully established. The preliminary vibration is then adjusted to the second mode once contact parameters are available, ensuring both responsiveness and accuracy.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

2Measurement precision

If vibration mode is based on contact parameters between electronic devices, then vibration accuracy is improved, but vibration initiation is delayed until contact parameters are established

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvevibration mode accuracyVSAvoidvibration initiation time
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The system executes the first vibration mode based on predefined parameters as a preliminary action before contact parameters are obtained. This preliminary vibration ensures immediate response, and the system later transitions to the second vibration mode based on contact parameters for improved accuracy. This two-stage approach resolves the contradiction by prioritizing speed initially, then refining accuracy when information becomes available.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The system dynamically adjusts the vibration mode from the first mode (based on predefined parameters) to the second mode (based on contact parameters) as conditions change. This dynamic switching allows the system to operate in different modes appropriate to the available information, achieving both rapid initiation and accurate vibration characteristics.

Inventive Principle:
