Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Anglers in lure fishing face challenges in determining the posture of the fishing line and bait in water, making it difficult to adjust accordingly and increasing the skill threshold, as they rely on experience rather than real-time feedback.
Innovation Solution
A method using a three-axis accelerometer and gyroscope to detect the acceleration and angular velocity of a fishing reel, combined with sensors to determine the completion of fishing operations and provide real-time prompts, including tension force and rotation speed analysis, to help anglers adjust their techniques effectively.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If anglers rely on experience to determine bait posture, then no additional equipment is needed, but the skill threshold increases and real-time feedback is unavailable
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements real-time feedback by detecting acceleration and angular velocity data from sensors attached to the fishing reel, processing this data to determine bait posture in water, and providing immediate feedback to the angler through visual or auditory signals. This allows anglers to adjust their technique based on actual bait position rather than relying solely on experience.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent replaces the traditional mechanical/experiential method of determining bait posture with an electronic sensing and processing system. Acceleration sensors and angular velocity sensors substitute for the angler's intuitive sense, automatically measuring and analyzing reel movement to infer bait position in water.
2Loss of information
If anglers want to know real-time bait posture, then sensor detection systems are needed, but the device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent uses the fishing reel itself as an intermediary carrier for the sensing system. The acceleration sensor and angular velocity sensor are attached to the reel, which serves as the medium to transfer movement information from the bait in water to the detection system. This intermediary approach allows information gathering without requiring direct attachment to the bait.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent makes the fishing reel multi-functional by combining its traditional fishing function with the function of a sensing platform. The reel not only performs its standard role of retrieving line but also serves as the mounting base for acceleration and angular velocity sensors, eliminating the need for separate detection equipment.
