Solution Overview

Problem

Current systems for acquiring detailed information about specific topics are limited by restricted search parameters, leading to irrelevant images, and require multiple resources for comprehensive data, which can be costly and inefficient, especially for location-specific or large-scale observations.

Innovation Solution

A method that identifies objectives, assesses information sources, and uses recording devices to capture and process visual or audio representations from multiple locations and time points, refining search criteria to extract relevant metadata and content information, enabling efficient comparison and synthesis of data across topics.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Productivity

If search parameters are restricted to improve search efficiency, then search speed increases, but information completeness deteriorates

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvesearch efficiencyVSAvoidinformation completeness
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSLoss of information

Solution Approach 1:

The patent segments the information gathering process into multiple independent recording devices positioned at different locations, each capturing data within its own parameter range. This allows parallel searching across multiple segments simultaneously, improving overall efficiency while maintaining comprehensive coverage through the aggregation of all segments' data.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

2Loss of information

If multiple recording devices are deployed to cover large topics, then information completeness improves, but system cost increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveinformation completenessVSAvoidsystem cost
Core Design Contradiction:
Loss of informationVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent employs recording devices that are multi-functional, capable of capturing both visual imagery and audio data simultaneously. This universality reduces the need for separate specialized devices, thereby lowering overall system cost while maintaining comprehensive information completeness across multiple locations and parameters.

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

3Quantity of substance

If feedback mechanisms are used to request additional images, then sample size increases, but time consumption increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvesample sizeVSAvoidtime consumption
Core Design Contradiction:
Quantity of substanceVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The patent implements preliminary action by pre-positioning multiple recording devices at strategic locations before the search begins. This allows the system to capture all necessary data in parallel from the outset, eliminating the need for iterative feedback loops that request additional images one at a time, thereby dramatically reducing time consumption while maintaining large sample sizes.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

4Measurement precision

If information is synthesized from multiple resources, then information accuracy improves, but verification complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveinformation accuracyVSAvoidverification complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent merges data from multiple recording devices into a unified dataset with standardized formatting and metadata. This consolidation allows for automated verification processes that compare and cross-validate information across sources systematically, reducing verification complexity while maintaining high information accuracy through the combined strength of multiple independent observations.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)
