Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If manual security screening procedures are used with personnel guidance, then security level is improved, but wait time and operational complexity increase
Solution Approach 1:
The system enables self-service security screening by using automated body scanners and optical playback devices that guide individuals through the screening process without security personnel intervention. The playback device displays scanning positions and instructions to individuals, allowing them to complete screening independently, thus reducing wait time while maintaining security standards.
Solution Approach 2:
Manual mechanical guidance by security personnel is replaced with an automated optical and electronic system. The optical playback device and body scanner create an automated guidance mechanism that substitutes human interaction with technological automation, reducing personnel requirements and operational complexity while maintaining or improving security effectiveness.
2Reliability
If manual security screening with personnel guidance is implemented, then security monitoring is improved, but device complexity and operational effort increase
Solution Approach 1:
The system transfers the monitoring function to the automated playback device and body scanner, which self-manage the guidance and monitoring tasks. Individuals receive automated instructions displayed through the optical device, eliminating the need for complex manual coordination by security personnel and reducing operational complexity.
Solution Approach 2:
The complex manual monitoring system involving security personnel is replaced with an automated optical-electronic monitoring system. The body scanner and playback device work together as an integrated automated system that simplifies operations while enhancing monitoring capabilities through technological automation.
3Productivity
If automated body scanning is implemented, then productivity is improved, but measurement precision requirements increase
Solution Approach 1:
The optical playback device provides real-time visual feedback to individuals about their scanning position and posture. This feedback mechanism allows individuals to self-adjust their position based on displayed guidance, ensuring high measurement precision for the body scanner while maintaining fast automated screening throughput.
Solution Approach 2:
The system performs preliminary positioning guidance through the optical playback device before the actual scanning occurs. Individuals are guided to the correct scanning position in advance, ensuring that when the automated scan takes place, the measurement conditions are already optimized for precision, thereby enabling high productivity without compromising accuracy.
