Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Loss of information

If a data label device is scanned by a read terminal, then data stored in the data label device can be read, but the amount of the obtained data information is small

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveamount of data informationVSAvoidneed for specialized reading devices
Core Design Contradiction:
Loss of informationVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent enables mobile terminals with standard communication protocols (Bluetooth, NFC, acoustic waves) to read data from data label devices, eliminating the need for specialized read terminals. This multi-functional approach allows common devices to perform data reading functions, thereby increasing the amount of accessible data information without requiring additional specialized equipment

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

Solution Approach 2:

The patent introduces a server as an intermediary between the data label device and the mobile terminal. The server receives data from the data label device via standard protocols and processes it into usable information, enabling efficient data transmission and expanding the amount of information that can be obtained without requiring complex specialized reading devices

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

2Adaptability or versatility

If specialized reading devices are used to read data from data label devices, then data can be obtained, but the transmission scope is restricted

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvetransmission scopeVSAvoidrequirement for specialized devices
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent employs multiple standard communication protocols (Bluetooth, NFC, acoustic waves) that are universally supported by modern mobile terminals. This enables the system to communicate with data label devices across various distances and environments, significantly expanding transmission scope without requiring specialized reading devices for each protocol

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

Solution Approach 2:

The patent dynamically selects appropriate communication protocols based on distance and environmental conditions. Close-range communication uses NFC, mid-range uses Bluetooth, and acoustic waves are used when other methods are unavailable. This dynamic adaptation expands transmission scope while using only standard protocols available in common mobile devices

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

3Productivity

If specialized reading devices are required for data transmission, then data can be read, but transmission efficiency is reduced

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvetransmission efficiencyVSAvoidneed for specific reading devices
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent enables standard mobile terminals to perform data reading functions using built-in communication protocols, eliminating the need for specialized reading devices. This increases transmission efficiency by allowing users to immediately access data with their existing devices without requiring additional specialized equipment

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

Solution Approach 2:

The patent enables mobile terminals to autonomously connect to and read data from data label devices using standard protocols. The system performs self-service data acquisition without requiring specialized intermediate devices, thereby improving transmission efficiency and reducing operational complexity

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

AI summary

A data transmission system is provided for improving transmission scope and efficiency. The system includes a data device having a device identifier; a server having a server-side of an application program; and a mobile terminal having a client-side of the application program. The data device receives a trigger instruction, and broadcasts within a preset distance the device identifier of the data device according to the trigger instruction. When a distance between the mobile terminal and the data device is less than or equal to the preset distance, the mobile terminal enters the application program to receive the device identifier broadcasted by the data device, uploads the device identifier to the server-side of the application program, receives web page information that is corresponding to the device identifier and obtained by the server-side according to the device identifier, and displays the web page information on the application program of the mobile terminal.
