Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Productivity

If manual classification and management of eye tracking data is used, then the system can process visual activity information, but the efficiency and accuracy of user activity judgment is low

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveefficiency of user activity judgmentVSAvoidmanual classification and management
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The system automatically correlates eye motion data with user behavior activity data through time-based correspondence relationships, eliminating the need for manual classification and management of eye tracking data. The processor autonomously determines user behavior activities by comparing acquisition times and establishing correlations between eye position data and behavior activity data.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

Solution Approach 2:

The patent replaces manual mechanical classification processes with an automated computational system that uses time-stamped data correlation algorithms. The processor automatically matches eye motion data with behavior activity data based on acquisition time, substituting human manual analysis with machine-based automated determination of user behavior activities.

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

2Measurement precision

If short-term eye tracking data is collected, then visual activity information can be obtained, but the accuracy of user behavior analysis is insufficient

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveaccuracy of user behavior analysisVSAvoidshort-term data collection period
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs preliminary correlation analysis by establishing time-based correspondence relationships between eye motion data and user behavior activity data before making behavior determinations. By pre-processing the data to create temporal associations, the system improves the accuracy of user behavior analysis while working effectively with short-term collected data.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The system uses feedback from the correspondence relationship between eye motion data and user behavior activity data to continuously improve behavior analysis accuracy. By comparing acquired eye position data with recorded behavior activity data over time, the system refines its determination of current user behavior activities, enhancing measurement precision through iterative feedback.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

AI summary

An information processing method is provided. The information processing method includes acquiring a motion state of eyes of a user to form eye motion data and record a first acquisition time of the eye motion data; extracting position data of the user's eyeballs from the eye motion data; and capturing user behavior activity data to record a second acquisition time of the user behavior activity data. The method also includes, based on the first acquisition time and the second acquisition time, determining a correspondence relationship between the position data of the user's eyeballs and the user behavior activity data; and, based on the correspondence relationship and a current eye motion, determining a current user behavior activity.
