Solution Overview

Problem

Caring for babies and elderlies can be demanding due to challenges in identifying and remembering upcoming events such as feeding, sleeping, and medical tasks, leading to increased anxiety and risk of missed schedules.

Innovation Solution

An intelligent event tracking system and method that utilizes a cloud server and tracking devices to predict event types and occurrence times based on historical data, statistical analysis, and deep learning models, providing timely reminders through mobile devices.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If parents manually monitor and identify baby needs through crying patterns, then they can respond to baby events, but it takes significant time and increases parental anxiety

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveability to identify baby needsVSAvoidtime to figure out baby needs
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs preliminary analysis of crying patterns and event data to predict upcoming baby events before they occur. By pre-processing the data and generating predictions in advance, the system eliminates the need for parents to manually analyze crying patterns in real-time, thus reducing both time loss and anxiety while maintaining reliable event identification.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

2Ease of operation

If elderlies rely on their memory to remember scheduled events, then they can perform daily tasks, but their degraded short-term memory leads to missed schedules

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveability to remember schedulesVSAvoidconsistency in performing medical tasks
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The system introduces an intermediary intelligence that bridges the gap between the elderlies' degraded memory and the need for reliable schedule adherence. The intermediary analyzes historical event data, determines patterns, and generates predictions about upcoming events, then presents these predictions to the user through the presenting unit, ensuring consistent task performance without relying on human memory.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

3Measurement precision

If the system provides detailed event tracking and prediction, then event management accuracy improves, but system complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveprediction accuracy of event type and timeVSAvoidcomplexity of tracking system
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The system extracts the complex prediction logic and data processing functions from the user side and relocates them to a separate intelligence unit or server. The tracking device itself remains relatively simple, while the complex algorithms for determining event types, occurrence times, and generating predictions are performed externally. This separation maintains high prediction accuracy while reducing the complexity of the end-user device.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #2Taking out (Extraction)
