Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Productivity

If manual interactions between users and third parties are used for data conveyance, then simplicity of operation is maintained, but efficiency and speed are reduced

Engineering Contradiction:
ImproveefficiencyVSAvoidmanual interaction requirement
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The system enables automatic data conveyance between user devices and vendor systems without manual intervention. Location data is automatically tracked and transmitted, product provisioning is initiated automatically, and delivery optimization occurs without user input, thereby improving efficiency while eliminating manual interaction requirements

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

Solution Approach 2:

The patent replaces manual mechanical interactions with automated electronic systems. GPS tracking, automated communication protocols, and algorithmic delivery optimization substitute for manual data conveyance, achieving higher efficiency through electronic automation while removing the need for manual operation

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

2Productivity

If manual face-to-face conveyance of data is used, then security concerns are minimized through direct control, but speed and efficiency are reduced

Engineering Contradiction:
ImprovespeedVSAvoiddata security
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The system introduces secure communication protocols and encrypted data transmission as intermediaries between user devices and vendor systems. This automated secure channel replaces manual face-to-face conveyance, achieving faster speed through automation while maintaining or enhancing security through dedicated security measures embedded in the electronic communication infrastructure

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

Solution Approach 2:

Manual face-to-face data conveyance is replaced with automated electronic communication systems that incorporate security protocols. The substitution enables faster data transmission while implementing structured security measures such as encryption and authentication, thereby improving speed without compromising reliability

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

3Productivity

If real-time location tracking and continuous calculation are implemented, then delivery optimization is improved, but energy consumption increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedelivery optimizationVSAvoidenergy consumption
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSUse of energy by moving object

Solution Approach 1:

Instead of truly continuous tracking, the system implements periodic location updates and calculations at optimized intervals. This reduces energy consumption by keeping devices in lower-power states between updates while still providing timely delivery optimization, balancing productivity improvements with energy conservation

Inventive Principle:
Principle #19Periodic action

Solution Approach 2:

The system dynamically adjusts the frequency of location tracking and calculation based on current conditions such as user movement, delivery urgency, and traffic conditions. This dynamic approach optimizes delivery response when needed while reducing energy consumption during stable conditions, achieving a balance between productivity and energy use

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

AI summary

Embodiments of the present invention provide a communicable integration of a user network of devices and a vendor system. Embodiments receive, at the vendor system from the user network of devices, a request for provisioning of products by a vendor; determine a provisioning location for provisioning of the products by the vendor; continuously identify a real-time location of the user via the one or more components of the user network of devices; continuously calculate a real-time first limit based on the continuously identified current location of the user and the provisioning location; calculate a total time to provision the products comprising a sum of a product preparation time and the real-time first limit; and optimize delivery of the products based on the total time to provision and the real-time location of the user.
