Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Productivity
If conventional design methods relying on designer inspiration are used, then design originality may be achieved, but design efficiency is low and the process is time-consuming
Solution Approach 1:
The system pre-establishes multiple dimensionality types (character, object, event, place, time) with numerous e-cards containing graphic and text information before the design process begins. When a design task starts, these pre-prepared e-cards are immediately retrieved and displayed, eliminating the time needed to generate ideas from scratch and significantly improving design efficiency while maintaining originality through diverse pre-categorized options
Solution Approach 2:
The design idea formation process is segmented into distinct dimensionality types (character, object, event, place, time), with each type containing specialized e-cards. This segmentation allows designers to systematically explore different aspects of their design concept across multiple categories rather than relying on unstructured inspiration, thereby reducing time loss while preserving creative originality
2Reliability
If designers use photos and objects to process originality, then some visual inspiration may be obtained, but the resultant effect is unsatisfying and originality formation is difficult
Solution Approach 1:
The system introduces e-cards as intermediary elements between the designer and raw inspiration materials. Each e-card contains pre-processed graphic information and text information organized by dimensionality type, serving as a structured mediator that transforms unstructured photos and objects into systematic, easily selectable design elements. This intermediary layer satisfies originality formation quality by providing curated options while reducing processing complexity through standardized card formats
Solution Approach 2:
The system transforms design inspiration from unstructured photos and objects into structured e-cards with defined parameters (dimensionality type, graphic information, text information). This parameterization organizes inspiration materials into standardized formats across five dimensionality types, making originality formation more reliable through systematic selection while reducing complexity by eliminating unstructured processing
3Productivity
If multiple dimensionality types of e-cards are selected and correlated, then diverse context information is generated and design efficiency improves, but the system complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The terminal device is designed with universal functionality to handle all five dimensionality types (character, object, event, place, time) through a unified interface and processing mechanism. The same terminal device can retrieve, display, select, and correlate e-cards from any dimensionality type using consistent operations, thereby improving product design efficiency without requiring separate systems for each dimensionality, thus managing system complexity through multi-functionality
