Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Loss of information

If existing black box technology is used to film assailants, then evidence collection is improved, but automatic emergency detection and response capability is insufficient

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveevidence collectionVSAvoidautomatic emergency detection and response
Core Design Contradiction:
Loss of informationVSExtent of automation

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs preliminary analysis of video and audio data continuously before emergencies occur. Deep learning models pre-process sensor inputs to detect potential violent situations and emotional states, enabling proactive emergency detection rather than reactive recording after the fact.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The mobility device autonomously analyzes its own sensor data through integrated deep learning engines without external intervention. The system self-determines emergency conditions by processing video, audio, and sensor inputs, then automatically executes response measures without requiring external monitoring or manual assessment.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

2Measurement precision

If multiple sensors and deep learning engines are integrated for automatic emergency determination, then emergency detection accuracy is improved, but device complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveemergency detection accuracyVSAvoidsystem complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The system divides the emergency detection function into separate specialized modules: image sensor processing for violent situation detection, microphone sensor processing for emotional state analysis, and vibration sensor processing for physical disturbance detection. Each module uses dedicated deep learning engines optimized for specific tasks, making the complex system modular and manageable.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

Multiple sensor inputs (video, audio, vibration) are merged and processed simultaneously through coordinated deep learning engines that share computational resources and decision-making logic. The integration of these sensors creates a unified emergency detection capability that achieves higher accuracy without proportionally increasing complexity.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

AI summary

The present disclosure relates to a method of automatically managing an emergency in a mobility device and system for the same. The method includes distinguishing passengers through an image obtained by an image sensor and determining a violent situation based on per-passenger joint position tracking, determining emotional states of one or more passengers through voice obtained by a sound sensor, based on determining the emergency requiring an emergency measure based on the determination on the violent situation and the determination on the emotional states, storing the image of the image sensor and the voice of the sound sensor, and transmitting a signal for the emergency measure to an emergency measure server.
