Solution Overview

Problem

Conventional systems for evaluating and training finger exercises do not provide personalized training menus, lacking the ability to generate and present suitable training options for individual users, which limits their effectiveness in maintaining or improving cognitive and exercise functions.

Innovation Solution

A finger exercise training menu generating system that processes analysis data from finger exercise measurements to create personalized training menus, including specific exercises and stimulation, tailored to each user's needs and abilities.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If conventional evaluation systems are used to measure finger exercise, then cognitive function and exercise function can be evaluated, but personalized training menus cannot be generated

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvepersonalization capabilityVSAvoidtraining guidance information
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSLoss of information

Solution Approach 1:

The training program is segmented into multiple index items (amount of exercise, endurance, rhythmicity, cooperativeness, marker trackability) with specific training items for each, allowing personalized selection based on individual evaluation results

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

Training menus are generated in advance based on evaluation results, providing pre-planned personalized training programs before the user begins exercise

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

2Adaptability or versatility

If generic training programs are provided, then training can be offered to all users, but individual needs and abilities cannot be addressed

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveindividual adaptabilityVSAvoidtraining program selection
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

Training parameters (index items, training items, number of repetitions, intervals) are dynamically adjusted based on individual evaluation results and progress, enabling automatic personalization without user intervention

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

3Productivity

If continuous monitoring and menu generation are implemented, then personalized training support is achieved, but system complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvetraining effectivenessVSAvoidsystem complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The system automatically generates training menus based on evaluation results without requiring manual intervention, and automatically updates menus based on training progress, making the system self-adjusting

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

AI summary

A training apparatus is capable of generating and presenting a suitable training menu for finger exercise to maintain or improve a cognitive function and/or an exercise function of a human and supporting training of the human. The training apparatus includes a measuring apparatus and a terminal device. Analysis evaluating data based on measurement of the finger exercise including finger tapping is obtained, and the analysis evaluating data contains an evaluation value of an index item related to an exercise function of a user. A training menu for the user is generated based on the analysis evaluating data and contains a training item for the finger exercise. The index item includes at least one of an amount of exercise, endurance, rhythmicity, cooperativeness of both sides, or marker trackability. The training item includes an exercise to carry out the finger tapping in accordance with teaching information, stimulation, or a marker.
