Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Measurement precision
If conventional AR systems are used in large public environments, then basic augmented reality functionality is provided, but precise tracking of user movement and interaction is not achieved
Solution Approach 1:
The physical environment is divided into a three-dimensional mesh composed of multiple addressable mesh cells. Each mesh cell represents a specific location in physical space and can be independently associated with AR content. This segmentation enables precise tracking by mapping user position to specific mesh cells rather than relying on continuous coordinate tracking, resolving the contradiction between tracking precision and system complexity.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent introduces an intermediary layer consisting of the three-dimensional mesh and mesh cell addressing system between the physical environment and the AR content delivery system. This intermediary structure provides a standardized interface for locating and delivering content based on user position, improving tracking precision while maintaining manageable system complexity through abstraction.
2Adaptability or versatility
If conventional AR systems provide simple user interaction, then ease of operation is maintained, but enhanced interaction capabilities are not achieved
Solution Approach 1:
The mesh cell addressing system serves multiple functions: it tracks user position, identifies visible content, triggers interactions, and manages content delivery. This universal addressing mechanism enables diverse interaction capabilities (visual, audio, textual, executable code) without requiring separate systems for each function, thus improving adaptability while controlling complexity through multi-functionality.
3Measurement precision
If AR content is associated with specific locations using three-dimensional coordinates, then precise content delivery is achieved, but system complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
Instead of using complex continuous three-dimensional coordinates, the system creates a discrete copy or representation of physical space through the mesh structure. Each mesh cell is a simplified, addressable unit that copies the essential location information without the mathematical complexity of continuous coordinates. This copying approach maintains location accuracy while reducing system complexity through discretization.
