Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If non-face-to-face medical services are provided through metaverse environment, then healthcare accessibility is improved and infection spread is reduced, but technical complexity and infrastructure requirements increase
Solution Approach 1:
The patent introduces a metaverse platform as an intermediary virtual environment that mediates between patients and medical personnel. This virtual space enables non-face-to-face medical services while reducing direct contact, thereby improving accessibility and infection control without requiring complex physical infrastructure modifications at patient locations.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent creates virtual copies of medical examination rooms and诊疗 environments within the metaverse platform. These virtual replicas allow patients to receive medical services in a simulated hospital setting, eliminating the need for physical hospital visits while maintaining the authenticity and effectiveness of medical examinations.
2Reliability
If virtual reality devices are used for metaverse immersion, then non-face-to-face medical experience is enhanced, but device cost and accessibility barriers increase
Solution Approach 1:
The patent designs the metaverse medical platform to be compatible with multiple types of output devices including VR headsets, AR glasses, and standard display devices. This multi-functionality allows the system to provide high-quality virtual medical services while accommodating users with different device capabilities, thereby reducing accessibility barriers without compromising service quality.
3Measurement precision
If comprehensive health measurement devices are deployed in diagnostic booths, then diagnostic accuracy is improved, but system complexity and deployment cost increase
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments the health measurement system into multiple independent functional modules including vital signs monitoring, physical examination, and diagnostic imaging components. Each module can be independently selected and configured based on specific medical needs, allowing high diagnostic accuracy while managing system complexity through modular architecture.

AI summary
According to an embodiment, there is provided a method of providing a metaverse healthcare platform service for non-face-to-face diagnosis and self-management, performed by a device, the method including the steps of: acquiring, when a health state of a first patient is measured through a measuring device for measuring a health state provided in a diagnostic booth, measurement information generated by measuring the health status of the first patient from the measuring device, determining whether non-face-to-face treatment is required for the first patient on the basis of the measurement information, performing control, when it is determined that non-face-to-face treatment for a first treatment subject is required for the first patient, so that a message for guiding to wear an output device is output to a diagnostic booth, performing control, when it is checked that the first patient wears the output device.
