Solution Overview
Problem
Existing eye exercise devices are complex, expensive, and require binocular lenses, limiting their accessibility and effectiveness in providing comprehensive ocular muscle exercises without assisted magnified lenses, particularly for everyday household use and natural ocular muscle stretching.
Innovation Solution
A single open goggle chamber eye exercise device with a polycarbonate protective screen and smart electronic glass that switches between opaque and transparent states, combined with strategically arranged light emitting diodes (LEDs) to encourage various ocular movements without binocular lenses, allowing for both near and far sightedness exercises.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If binocular lenses are used in eye exercise devices, then magnified vision support is provided, but device complexity and manufacturing cost increase
Solution Approach 1:
The patent removes binocular lenses from the eye exercise device, extracting the magnified vision support function while maintaining the core eye exercise capability. This simplifies the device structure and reduces manufacturing costs while still providing effective ocular muscle exercise through the open chamber design and LED light stimulation.
Solution Approach 2:
The single open goggle chamber design serves multiple functions: it allows natural ocular muscle stretching, provides LED light stimulation for eye exercise, and accommodates both near and far sightedness exercises without requiring separate binocular lens systems. This multi-functional approach replaces the need for complex binocular lens mechanisms.
2Adaptability or versatility
If binocular lenses are used in eye exercise devices, then magnified vision support is provided, but manufacturing cost increases
Solution Approach 1:
By removing the expensive binocular lens components, the patent significantly reduces manufacturing costs while maintaining the essential eye exercise function through the simplified single chamber design with LED stimulation.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent employs affordable components such as LED lights, smart electronic glass, and polycarbonate protective screens that are cost-effective to manufacture and replace, making the device accessible for everyday household use without the high costs associated with binocular lens systems.
3Device complexity
If a single open goggle chamber without binocular lenses is used, then device complexity and cost are reduced, but ocular muscle stretching effectiveness may be compromised
Solution Approach 1:
The patent replaces the mechanical optical system of binocular lenses with an electronic and optical stimulation system using LEDs and smart electronic glass. The LEDs emit light in predefined sequences to encourage specific ocular movements, while the smart glass switches between opaque and transparent states to provide near and far sightedness exercises, effectively substituting mechanical lens magnification with electronic control mechanisms.
Solution Approach 2:
The smart electronic glass changes its optical parameters by switching between opaque and transparent states, allowing the same single chamber to provide both near and far sightedness exercise conditions. This dynamic parameter change replaces the need for fixed binocular lens configurations and maintains ocular muscle stretching effectiveness through electronic control.
Applied Scientific Principles
This section explains which scientific principles are used to turn an abstract innovation direction into a practical engineering solution.
Function Achieved in This Case
The device facilitates comprehensive ocular muscle stretching and eye health maintenance by enabling users to perform exercises for both eyes without binocular lenses, providing instant and long-term relief from eye strain and vision-related issues, such as near and far sightedness, in a portable and affordable manner.
Implementation Method 1
The smart electronic glass is configured to switch to an opaque state for short-sightedness and switch to a transparent state for farsightedness
Implementation Method 2
The LEDs disposed at the periphery of the second plastic plate is configured to emit light in a predefined sequence, thereby encouraging specific ocular movements
