Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Ease of operation

If manual switching between operating systems is used, then device complexity is reduced, but ease of operation deteriorates and intelligence is poor

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveease of operationVSAvoiddevice complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The system automatically determines which operating system should be activated based on pre-configured associations between wake-up modules and operating systems. When a wake-up module detects user interaction, it automatically triggers the corresponding operating system without requiring manual user selection, enabling the device to serve itself in the operating system switching process

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

Solution Approach 2:

The patent pre-establishes associations between wake-up modules and operating systems before actual use. This preliminary configuration allows the system to automatically respond with the correct operating system when a wake-up module is activated, eliminating the need for manual switching during operation

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

2Ease of operation

If automatic switching between operating systems is implemented, then ease of operation improves, but device complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveease of operationVSAvoiddevice complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The system segments the wake-up functionality by assigning specific wake-up modules to specific operating systems. Each wake-up module is associated with a particular operating system, creating discrete, manageable connections that simplify the automatic switching logic while maintaining ease of operation

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The patent introduces wake-up modules as intermediary components that bridge user interactions and operating system activation. These modules act as mediators that detect user input and automatically trigger the appropriate operating system, simplifying the user interface while implementing automatic switching functionality

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

3Adaptability or versatility

If multiple operating systems are installed, then adaptability improves, but ease of operation deteriorates due to manual switching requirement

Engineering Contradiction:
ImproveadaptabilityVSAvoidease of operation
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The system automatically selects and activates the appropriate operating system based on which wake-up module detected the user interaction. This self-service mechanism allows the device to adapt to different user needs automatically, maintaining high adaptability while significantly improving ease of operation by eliminating manual switching

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service
