Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If more functions are implemented by smart glasses, then the functionality and versatility are improved, but the interaction complexity and user operation difficulty increase
Solution Approach 1:
The interaction control is segmented into multiple independent elements distributed on the frame temple (first element for rotation operations, second element for pressing operations). This segmentation allows users to perform different interaction types simultaneously or independently, reducing the complexity of controlling multiple functions through a single complex interface.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent introduces rotation operations as a new dimension of interaction beyond traditional pressing or sliding gestures. By adding rotational movement to the interaction paradigm, the system enables more intuitive and efficient control for navigating through multiple functions and interfaces, thereby improving ease of operation despite increased functionality.
2Productivity
If traditional interaction elements are used on smart glasses, then the device structure remains simple, but the interaction efficiency and control precision are insufficient
Solution Approach 1:
The first element on the frame temple is designed to support multiple interaction modes including rotation operations in different directions and pressing operations. This multi-functional element can control various functions such as navigating interfaces, selecting options, and adjusting settings, thereby improving interaction efficiency without requiring separate dedicated controls for each function.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent introduces a processor as an intermediary component that receives input signals from the first and second elements and translates them into appropriate control commands. This intermediary processing layer enables complex interaction patterns to be mapped to simple physical actions, improving productivity while keeping the overall structure manageable.
3Adaptability or versatility
If rotation operations are added to the interaction elements, then the degree of freedom and scalability of interaction are improved, but the device structure and manufacturing complexity increase
Solution Approach 1:
The first element combines rotation operation capabilities with pressing operation capabilities into a single integrated component. This merging of functions reduces the total number of separate parts that need to be manufactured and assembled, thereby improving scalability and reducing manufacturing complexity despite adding rotational interaction capabilities.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent implements rotation operations by detecting changes in the angular position or orientation of the first element. By using parameter changes (rotation angles, direction of rotation) rather than complex mechanical structures, the system achieves high interaction scalability with relatively simple manufacturing requirements.

AI summary
Glasses, an instruction obtaining method, and a related device may be applied to the field of smart wearable devices. The glasses include a first element disposed on a frame temple and a processor, and the first element is configured to: when a control interface is displayed to a user, obtain a first rotation operation input by the user, where the control interface includes a plurality of objects for the user to select; and the processor is configured to generate a first instruction corresponding to the first rotation operation, where the first instruction instructs to change a selected object in the control interface. An operation obtained via the first element is a rotation operation, so that a degree of freedom of interaction of the rotation operation is high, and scalability is strong. This facilitates input of more control instructions.
