Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If a sensor system is designed for specific applications only, then it can achieve high reliability for those applications, but it lacks adaptability to other fields
Solution Approach 1:
The patent creates a universal sensor information processing system that can handle multiple sensor types (acceleration, angular velocity, position, biometric sensors) and various applications (motion recognition, position recognition, biometric recognition) through a single integrated architecture. The terminal device processes sensor information generically without being dedicated to a specific application, achieving broad adaptability while maintaining reliability through consistent processing methods.
2Measurement precision
If sensor information is processed in real-time with high accuracy, then measurement precision is improved, but processing time and computational complexity increase
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs preliminary processing of sensor information by the sensor devices themselves, which generate and transmit processed sensor information to the terminal device. This preliminary action at the sensor level reduces the computational burden on the terminal device, enabling accurate processing without excessive time consumption.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent divides the processing task into segments: sensor devices perform initial detection and information generation, then transmit this pre-processed information to the terminal device for further processing. This segmentation allows real-time processing with high accuracy by distributing computational work across multiple components.
