1Measurement precision

If human operator control is used for environmental factor monitoring and control, then control accuracy based on expertise is improved, but real-time control capability deteriorates

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecontrol accuracyVSAvoidreal-time control capability
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSSpeed

Solution Approach 1:

The patent creates a digital twin (virtual copy) of the microorganism cultivation apparatus that replicates its operational characteristics. This virtual model is trained to mimic the decision-making patterns of expert human operators, enabling the system to copy human expertise while operating in real-time without requiring actual human presence for each control decision.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #26Copying

Solution Approach 2:

The patent replaces the mechanical human operator system with an automated artificial intelligence system. The AI model processes sensor data and generates control commands automatically, substituting the human operator's manual monitoring and adjustment actions with an automated computational system that operates continuously in real-time.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #28Mechanics substitution (Replace mechanical system)

2Ease of manufacture
