Solution Overview

Problem

Current systems lack an efficient platform for clients to browse and order modeled objects, including stereoscopic images and modeling plans, which hinders the sales promotion and manufacturing process of creators and modeling makers.

Innovation Solution

A modeled object distribution management system that includes a creator storage unit for stereoscopic images, a first display controller for client browsing, and a second display controller for displaying modeling plans, allowing clients to select and order modeled objects by viewing stereoscopic images and associated modeling methods and materials.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Ease of operation

If a platform is built to display stereoscopic images and modeling plans, then client browsing and ordering capability is improved, but system complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveclient browsing and ordering capabilityVSAvoidsystem complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The system is divided into distinct functional modules: a creator storage unit for managing stereoscopic images and modeling plans, a first display controller for presenting modeled objects to clients, and a second display controller for displaying modeling plans. This segmentation allows each component to perform its specific function independently, improving ease of operation while managing system complexity through modular design.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

2Productivity

If comprehensive modeled object information is stored and displayed, then sales promotion effectiveness is improved, but information management complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvesales promotion effectivenessVSAvoidinformation management complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The creator storage unit serves multiple functions: storing stereoscopic images of modeled objects, storing associated modeling plans containing modeling methods and materials, and providing both types of information to the display controllers. This multi-functionality allows comprehensive information management through a single unified system, improving sales promotion effectiveness without proportionally increasing complexity.

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

AI summary

A modeled object distribution management system includes a creator storage unit, a first display controller and a second display controller. The creator storage unit stores modeled object-related information including information indicating stereoscopic images of created modeled objects. The first display controller displays the stereoscopic images to allow a client to browse the stereoscopic images, by using the information indicating the stereoscopic images which is stored in the creator storage unit. The second display controller displays a modeling plan to allow the client to browse the modeling plan. The modeling plan includes a modeling method and a material which are used to model a modeled object corresponding to a stereoscopic image selected by the client from the stereoscopic images displayed in the first display controller.
