Motion Sickness Prevention Using Vehicle-Behavior-Triggered Stimuli
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing motion sickness detection devices do not effectively prevent motion sickness in passengers of moving bodies.
Innovation Solution
A motion sickness prevention device equipped with sensors to detect vehicle behaviors, a stimulus application system, and a control mechanism to apply stimuli to passengers based on detected behaviors to mitigate the risk of motion sickness.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Measurement precision
If a motion sickness detection device is used to detect motion sickness of a passenger, then motion sickness can be detected, but the passenger cannot be prevented from getting motion sickness
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs preliminary detection of motion sickness symptoms through temperature measurement and proactively applies stimuli before the passenger fully experiences motion sickness, preventing the condition from developing rather than merely detecting it
Solution Approach 2:
A stimulus application device acts as an intermediary between the detection system and the passenger, delivering targeted stimuli (such as vibration or sound) to counteract motion sickness symptoms detected by the sensor group
2Object-affected harmful factors
If a stimulus application device is added to prevent motion sickness, then passenger comfort is improved, but device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The stimulus application device is designed to perform multiple functions - it can apply different types of stimuli (vibration, sound, or other sensory inputs) based on the detected motion sickness condition, making a single device serve multiple protective functions
Solution Approach 2:
The control section continuously receives detection results from the sensor group and adjusts stimulus application in real-time, creating a closed-loop feedback system that optimizes prevention effectiveness while maintaining manageable device complexity

AI summary
Provided is a motion sickness prevention device capable of preventing a passenger from getting motion sickness. A motion sickness prevention device includes a sensor group, an obtaining section, a stimulus application device which applies a stimulus to a passenger of a moving body, and a control section which controls the stimulus application device. The control section controls the stimulus application device according to information which is related to behaviors of the moving body and which is obtained by the obtaining section, so as to apply a stimulus to the passenger.
