Solution Overview

Problem

Existing mobile object brokerage systems do not account for the remaining life of vehicles, leading to situations where the vehicle's life expires before the user's expected usable period.

Innovation Solution

A mobile object brokerage system that includes a desired-remaining-life condition recognition section, a candidate-mobile-object remaining-life recognition section, a remaining-life consumption degree recognition section, a corrected-remaining-life calculation section, and a transaction target mobile-object selection section, which together enable the system to match users with vehicles that meet their desired remaining life conditions.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Productivity

If conventional brokerage systems match users with mobile objects based on basic information, then transaction efficiency is improved, but the reliability of matching is worsened because remaining life is not considered

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvetransaction efficiencyVSAvoidmatching reliability
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs preliminary recognition of remaining life for candidate mobile objects before the transaction matching process. The remaining life recognition section evaluates the remaining life of each candidate mobile object in advance, and this information is then used by the transaction target selection section to make reliable matching decisions that satisfy user requirements.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The system incorporates feedback loops where the remaining life consumption degree recognition section continuously monitors actual usage patterns and compares them with predicted consumption degrees. This feedback is used to refine and correct remaining life predictions, improving the reliability of matching over time through iterative optimization.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

2Measurement precision

If the system calculates corrected remaining life using detailed use history information, then the precision of remaining life prediction is improved, but the device complexity is worsened

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveremaining life prediction precisionVSAvoidsystem complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The system segments the complex remaining life prediction task into distinct functional sections: remaining life recognition section, remaining life consumption degree recognition section, and corrected remaining life calculation section. Each section handles a specific aspect of the analysis, processing different types of information independently before integrating results, which manages complexity while maintaining precision.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The remaining life consumption degree acts as an intermediary parameter that bridges raw use history information and final remaining life predictions. This intermediate metric simplifies the relationship between complex usage patterns and remaining life calculations, making the system more manageable while preserving prediction accuracy.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

3Adaptability or versatility

If the system recognizes remaining life consumption degree based on actual use history, then the adaptability to user-specific usage patterns is improved, but the loss of time for data processing is worsened

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveusage pattern adaptabilityVSAvoiddata processing time
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The system implements a tiered approach where it first performs basic remaining life recognition without detailed consumption degree analysis for quick initial assessments. When higher precision is needed or time permits, it then performs the more time-consuming remaining life consumption degree recognition based on actual use history, balancing speed and adaptability.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #16Partial or excessive action
