Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Measurement precision
If electroencephalogram detection capabilities and temperature control are integrated into the eyeshade, then monitoring accuracy and personalized comfort are improved, but device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent combines the electroencephalogram acquisition unit, controller, and heating unit into an integrated eyeshade system. The controller serves as a central hub that receives brain electrical signals from the electroencephalogram acquisition unit and controls the heating unit based on analyzed relaxation levels, merging multiple functional components into a single wearable device to achieve both monitoring accuracy and personalized comfort.
Solution Approach 2:
The eyeshade is designed with multi-functionality, serving both as a traditional light-shielding eyeshade and as a medical monitoring device with electroencephalogram detection capabilities. The same device structure provides both eye comfort through heating and brain state monitoring, reducing the need for separate devices and managing complexity through universal design.
2Ease of repair
If the controller is detachably coupled to the electroencephalogram acquisition unit, then ease of repair and adaptability are improved, but connection reliability may deteriorate
Solution Approach 1:
The controller is designed as a detachable component that can be separated from the electroencephalogram acquisition unit through a data interface. This segmentation allows the controller to be replaced, upgraded, or maintained independently without affecting the electroencephalogram acquisition unit, improving ease of repair and adaptability while maintaining functional integrity through standardized connection protocols.
