Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Productivity
If conventional point cloud scanning is used to obtain initial point cloud data, then scanning can be performed quickly, but the point cloud data contains massive noise, outliers, and holes resulting in poor quality
Solution Approach 1:
The patent introduces a point cloud optimization module that acts as an intermediary between the scanning module and reconstruction module. This module processes the raw point cloud data by filtering noise, removing outliers, and filling holes using algorithms such as statistical outlier removal and radius-based outlier removal, thereby improving point cloud quality without compromising scanning speed
Solution Approach 2:
The patent replaces manual quality assessment and manual model construction with automated computational methods. The system automatically evaluates point cloud quality metrics and uses algorithmic approaches for optimization and reconstruction, eliminating the need for manual intervention while maintaining high quality standards
2Productivity
If curved surface reconstruction is based on existing point cloud data, then reconstruction efficiency is high, but details and sharp features are lost due to insufficient point cloud coverage
Solution Approach 1:
The patent performs preliminary point cloud optimization and quality assessment before initiating curved surface reconstruction. The system pre-processes the point cloud data to ensure sufficient coverage and quality, and uses preliminary quality evaluation to determine whether additional scanning is needed, thereby preventing detail loss while maintaining efficiency
Solution Approach 2:
The patent implements a feedback mechanism where the quality of point cloud data is continuously evaluated during the reconstruction process. If the evaluation indicates insufficient coverage or quality, the system automatically triggers additional scanning or optimization operations, ensuring that surface details are preserved while maintaining overall efficiency
3Device complexity
If point cloud stitching is performed without quality analysis, then the process is simple, but the reconstructed model has considerable differences from the real model due to noise and outliers
Solution Approach 1:
The patent performs preliminary quality analysis of point cloud data before stitching operations. The system evaluates metrics such as point density, noise levels, and coverage completeness, and uses this information to guide the stitching process, thereby improving model accuracy without significantly increasing process complexity
Solution Approach 2:
The patent dynamically adjusts stitching parameters based on point cloud quality metrics. The system modifies optimization criteria, weighting factors, and algorithm parameters according to the evaluated quality of input data, enabling accurate stitching while maintaining reasonable process complexity
4Quantity of substance
If all newly scanned point cloud data is directly added to the whole model, then data completeness is improved, but data volume becomes excessively large and local redundancy increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies different processing strategies to different regions of the point cloud data based on local quality assessments. The system identifies regions with sufficient coverage and preserves them, while actively acquiring and processing regions with insufficient coverage, thereby maintaining data completeness while reducing overall redundancy
Solution Approach 2:
The patent implements a selective data retention strategy where redundant point cloud data is identified and discarded based on overlap analysis and quality metrics. The system recovers and preserves only the essential information needed for accurate reconstruction, thereby maintaining completeness while reducing data volume
