Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Productivity

If manual methods are used to generate information cards, then accuracy and customization can be maintained, but significant manual labor and time are required

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveinformation card generation efficiencyVSAvoidtime required for manual information card creation
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The patent replaces manual mechanical operations with an automated system that uses optical character recognition (OCR) technology and template matching algorithms. The system automatically captures screenshots of information cards, extracts text and elements using OCR, identifies card types through template matching, and generates new information cards without human intervention, thereby substituting manual labor with automated mechanical and computational processes

Inventive Principle:
Principle #28Mechanics substitution (Replace mechanical system)

Solution Approach 2:

The patent employs a copying mechanism where a reference information card screenshot is captured and used as a template. The system extracts structural elements, layout patterns, and design features from this reference card, then replicates them to generate new information cards. This copying approach enables automated reproduction of information cards while maintaining consistent formatting and design standards

Inventive Principle:
Principle #26Copying

2Productivity

If automated methods are used to generate information cards, then efficiency is improved, but complexity of the system increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveinformation card generation speedVSAvoidsystem complexity for automatic information card generation
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent divides the information card generation process into distinct modular segments: screenshot capture module, OCR text extraction module, template matching module, element identification module, and card generation module. Each module performs a specific function and can be independently developed, tested, and maintained. This segmentation reduces overall system complexity by breaking down the complex automated generation process into manageable, specialized components

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The patent introduces an intermediary template matching mechanism that serves as a bridge between the captured screenshot and the final generated information card. The template acts as an intermediate representation that structures the raw extracted elements into a format suitable for card generation, simplifying the transformation process and reducing the complexity of direct mapping between screenshot and output card

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

AI summary

The disclosure provides a method, an apparatus, a device and a medium for generating an information card of an object. In the method, in response to receiving a page address of a page comprising a set of attributes of a target object, obtaining a set of page elements in the page. Determining the set of attributes of the target object based on the set of page elements. Generating an information card of the target object based on the set of attributes. With the exemplary implementation of the disclosure, only the page address pointing to the object needs to be input, and the information card can be automatically generated based on the information in the page corresponding to the page address, thereby providing summary information of the object in a visual manner.
