Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Quantity of substance
If conventional technology is used to obtain street view images and perform recognition processing, then location information and text information can be obtained, but it is impossible to obtain video of a predetermined location at multiple points in time
Solution Approach 1:
The system pre-obtains and stores video data at multiple time points for a location before the user makes an inquiry. This preliminary data collection enables the system to quickly retrieve and provide historical video information without requiring real-time capture, thus resolving the contradiction between providing comprehensive temporal data and the complexity of continuous data acquisition.
Solution Approach 2:
The information processing device is designed to handle multiple types of queries (current video, historical video, future prediction) using a unified system architecture. The same device can retrieve video data from different time periods and generate both actual and predicted situation information, making the system versatile across different temporal requirements without needing separate specialized systems.
2Adaptability or versatility
If video data is obtained at multiple points in time, then comprehensive location information is provided, but the system complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The system segments the video data into distinct time-based categories (current video, historical video, future predicted video) and stores them separately in the storage unit. This segmentation allows the information processing device to retrieve and process data from specific time periods independently, simplifying the retrieval logic and reducing processing complexity while maintaining comprehensive temporal coverage.
Solution Approach 2:
The situation obtainer acts as an intermediary component that receives location information from the inquiry receiver, determines the appropriate time period, and retrieves the corresponding video data from storage. This intermediary layer abstracts the complexity of multi-temporal data retrieval from the main processing flow, allowing the system to handle temporal variations without increasing overall system complexity.
3Reliability
If future situation information is obtained, then predictive capability is improved, but data availability is reduced
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs preliminary analysis of historical video data and generates predicted situation information for the future based on patterns and trends identified in the historical data. By pre-processing and analyzing available historical information, the system can generate reliable predictions about future conditions without requiring actual future data to be captured or stored.
Solution Approach 2:
The system creates a copy or representation of future situations by analyzing and extrapolating from historical video data. The situation obtainer generates synthetic future situation information that mirrors actual future conditions based on historical patterns, providing reliable predictive data without needing to capture or store actual future video data.

AI summary
In the conventional technology, it is impossible to obtain the video and the situation of a predetermined location at a plurality of points in time. An information processing device 1 including: an inquiry receiver 122 configured to receive an inquiry including a location information; a video obtainer 131 configured to obtain a video at a location identified by the location information at a plurality of points in time; a situation obtainer 132 configured to obtain a situation information for identifying a situation of a place identified by the location information; a screen generator 133 configured to generate a screen based on the video at the plurality of points in time; and a screen transmitter 141 configured to transmit the screen to a user terminal 3. Thus, the video and the situation information at a predetermined location at a plurality of points in time can be obtained.
