Solution Overview

Problem

During events involving multiple kigurumis, users experience a lack of engagement due to similar performances, making it difficult to provide a sense of attachment and surprise.

Innovation Solution

A program executed on a computer that acquires identification information for each kigurumi and user, allowing for customized performance output based on this combination, enabling different performances for various kigurumis or individual kigurumis.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Ease of operation

If all kigurumis produce similar performances, then the system is simple and easy to operate, but the user experiences lack of engagement and attachment

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveease of operationVSAvoidadaptability
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSAdaptability or versatility

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies local quality by assigning unique identification information to each kigurumi and using this information to generate customized performance content. Each kigurumi has distinct characteristics (individual code, type code) that determine its specific performance output, creating差异化 experiences while maintaining overall system simplicity through standardized processing architecture.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #3Local quality

Solution Approach 2:

The system changes parameters by using different identification information (individual code, type code) as input to the performance content generation process. These parameter variations result in different performance outputs for different kigurumis, enabling adaptability without complicating the underlying system structure.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

2Adaptability or versatility

If different performances are output by different kigurumis, then user engagement and attachment are improved, but the device complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
ImproveadaptabilityVSAvoiddevice complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The information processing device performs multiple functions using a unified approach: it acquires identification information, generates performance content, and controls output devices for various kigurumis. This multi-functional design achieves adaptability across different kigurumi types while avoiding the complexity of separate systems for each kigurumi.

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

Solution Approach 2:

The patent introduces identification information as an intermediary element that mediates between the kigurumi and the performance output. This intermediary enables the system to differentiate performances based on kigurumi characteristics without requiring direct complex interactions between each kigurumi and its control mechanisms.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

3Adaptability or versatility

If unique identification information is assigned to each kigurumi, then individual performances can be provided, but information management complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
ImproveadaptabilityVSAvoidinformation management
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSLoss of information

Solution Approach 1:

The identification information is segmented into distinct components: individual code for unique identification and type code for category classification. This segmentation allows the system to manage information efficiently by processing different levels of identification independently, reducing overall information management complexity while enabling detailed customization.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

AI summary

A method for outputting different performances by different types of kigurumi includes acquiring first identification information from a terminal provided on a kigurumi, acquiring first user identification information from a first user terminal, and a outputting performance information relating to the kigurumi based on the first identification information and the first user identification information, and a different value is set as the first identification information for each type of kigurumi or each individual kigurumi.
