1Reliability

If sensing data is collected and analyzed to provide personalized learning assistance, then learning effectiveness is improved, but device complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvelearning assistance effectivenessVSAvoidsystem complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The system is divided into distinct functional modules: a sensing data obtaining section that collects motion data, an analyzing section that processes the data, and an output section that delivers feedback. This segmentation allows each module to perform its specific function independently, managing complexity while achieving effective learning assistance.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The server acts as an intermediary between the sensing data and the user feedback. It receives sensing data, performs complex analysis to estimate practice information, and generates personalized practice menus and feedback. This intermediary approach handles the computational complexity centrally while keeping the user interface simple.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

2Measurement precision

If multiple types of sensing data are analyzed, then measurement precision is improved, but difficulty of detecting and measuring increases

Engineering Contradiction:
