Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If a traditional graphical user interface is used, then the interface structure is simple and easy to implement, but the interface is not adaptable to individual user needs and is limited by predefined schemes
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements a dynamic GUI structure where the three-dimensional interface automatically adapts its configuration based on the number of objects being monitored. The system dynamically adjusts the number of sectors, the arrangement of elements, and the layout of the interface to match user needs without requiring manual reconfiguration, thus resolving the contradiction between adaptability and complexity
Solution Approach 2:
The system employs self-service mechanisms through automatic scaling algorithms that adjust the interface configuration based on the global element value and the number of objects. The interface automatically reorganizes sectors and elements without user intervention, making the system adaptable while keeping the implementation complexity manageable through automated processes
2Loss of information
If the number of objects to be analyzed is increased, then the data analysis capability is improved, but the interface becomes more complicated and inconvenient to operate
Solution Approach 1:
The patent transitions from traditional two-dimensional GUI layouts to a three-dimensional interface structure. This dimensional change allows the system to accommodate a larger number of objects and data elements without increasing operational complexity, as users can navigate through the third dimension (radial sectors) to access different data groups, thus improving data analysis capability while maintaining ease of operation
Solution Approach 2:
The interface is segmented into multiple radial sectors, each dedicated to specific groups of objects or data types. This segmentation allows users to analyze multiple objects simultaneously by organizing them into logical groups across different sectors, improving data analysis capability while keeping each sector's content manageable and easy to operate
3Adaptability or versatility
If predefined presentation schemes are used, then the implementation is simple, but the manipulation of relations between presented data is limited
Solution Approach 1:
The patent creates a universal interface framework where a single three-dimensional structure can present and manipulate various types of data relationships through its configurable sectors and elements. The system supports multiple data presentation schemes within the same framework, allowing flexible manipulation of data relations while maintaining implementation simplicity through a unified multi-functional architecture

AI summary
A method for generating a multidimensional graphical user interface for navigating through a set of elements, in a device having a controller operable by an input interface and generating the multidimensional graphical user interface via a display interface. The method includes generating a three-dimensional structure having a top base, a bottom base and a side surface, wherein on the bottom base there are located objects to be analyzed, and on the top base there are located current status information related to the objects and a global element. The method also includes dividing the side surface into sectors presenting the elements related to the objects, wherein the elements are automatically scaled correspondingly to the global element, wherein the global element is adjustable by a user, wherein a number of the sectors is dynamically adapted to the number of the objects currently present on the bottom base.
