Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If users switch between different image processing scenarios by exiting and entering different interfaces, then different image processing scenarios can be accessed, but the switching operations become cumbersome and image processing efficiency decreases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveimage processing scenario switching capabilityVSAvoidswitching operation convenience
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The patent merges multiple image processing scenario interfaces into a single unified interface. The first interface displays both the first image processing scenario and the second image processing scenario simultaneously, allowing users to switch between scenarios without exiting and re-entering different interfaces. This combining of previously separate interfaces into one unified interface resolves the contradiction by maintaining scenario versatility while dramatically improving switching convenience.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

Solution Approach 2:

The first interface is designed with multi-functionality to handle multiple image processing scenarios. It can present both the first image processing scenario and the second image processing scenario within the same interface, making the interface universal rather than dedicated to a single function. This multi-functional design allows users to access different scenarios through a single interface, eliminating the need to switch between multiple specialized interfaces.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)

2Adaptability or versatility

If users frequently exit and enter different interfaces for different image processing scenarios, then different scenarios can be accessed, but image processing efficiency is reduced

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveimage processing scenario varietyVSAvoidimage processing efficiency
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSProductivity

Solution Approach 1:

By merging multiple scenario interfaces into one unified first interface that displays both the first image processing scenario and the second image processing scenario, the patent eliminates the time-consuming exit-and-enter operations. Users can switch scenarios instantly within the same interface, significantly improving image processing efficiency while maintaining access to multiple scenario types.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

3Device complexity

If a single interface presents only one image processing scenario, then the interface design is simple, but users must switch interfaces to access different scenarios

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveinterface design simplicityVSAvoidscenario switching convenience
Core Design Contradiction:
Device complexityVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The first interface is designed as a universal interface that can present multiple image processing scenarios (both the first and second scenarios) within a single unified structure. This multi-functional design maintains relative simplicity while enabling users to access different scenarios without switching interfaces, thus improving ease of operation without significantly increasing interface complexity.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)
