Solution Overview

Problem

Current route-guiding systems do not dynamically adjust recommended routes based on users' real-time physical conditions, leading to potential safety issues and inefficiencies, especially in dynamic traffic conditions or when users' health parameters change.

Innovation Solution

A method and apparatus that obtain users' current body information and geographic data to dynamically determine and update recommended routes, incorporating user profile information and real-time health metrics such as heart rate, stress levels, and road conditions to select the most suitable route.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If traditional route-guiding systems are used, then route guidance is provided based on static criteria, but the system cannot adapt to real-time changes in user physical conditions or environmental factors

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveadaptability to real-time conditionsVSAvoidsystem complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The route-guiding system transitions from static route selection to dynamic route recommendation by continuously monitoring user body information (heart rate, temperature, etc.) and environmental conditions, then adjusting route recommendations in real-time based on changing parameters

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

Solution Approach 2:

The system implements feedback loops where body information sensors continuously provide data to the control unit, which processes this information along with route information and provides feedback in the form of updated route recommendations to the user

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

2Reliability

If dynamic route adjustment based on body information is implemented, then user safety and efficiency are improved, but the device complexity and data processing requirements increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveuser safetyVSAvoiddata processing complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The system segments the complex task into distinct functional modules: body information acquisition sensors, control unit for data processing, route information database, and output display devices, allowing independent optimization and maintenance of each component

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The control unit acts as an intermediary that receives raw body information data, processes it according to predetermined algorithms, and translates it into actionable route recommendations, simplifying the overall system architecture

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

3Productivity

If continuous monitoring of body information is performed, then real-time route optimization is achieved, but energy consumption increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveroute optimization efficiencyVSAvoidenergy consumption
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSUse of energy by moving object

Solution Approach 1:

Instead of continuous monitoring, the system periodically updates body information at predetermined intervals or when specific thresholds are reached, reducing energy consumption while maintaining effective route optimization capability

Inventive Principle:
Principle #19Periodic action
