Solution Overview

Problem

Current computer systems require substantial manual effort to create artworks by modifying representations of objects, as graphical information in font files cannot be easily altered, limiting the diversity and automation of artwork creation.

Innovation Solution

A method and apparatus that utilize random numbers and probability distributions to generate and transform basic objects, allowing for the creation of diverse artworks by systematically varying factors such as shape, size, and position, thereby achieving 'order in chaos' through automated processes.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If graphical information in font files is manually modified to create diverse artworks, then artistic diversity can be achieved, but the work required is substantially the same as manual artwork creation

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveartistic diversityVSAvoidwork efficiency
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSProductivity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies dynamics by making the graphical information transformable and adaptable through automated processes. Instead of static manual modification, the system dynamically generates diverse artworks by applying transformations to basic objects using random variables and mathematical models, enabling artistic diversity without manual effort for each variation.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

Solution Approach 2:

The patent uses copying by creating multiple variations of artworks from basic objects through automated transformation. Rather than manually creating each unique artwork, the system generates numerous copies and variations by applying different parameter combinations and transformations to the same basic object structures, significantly improving productivity while maintaining artistic diversity.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #26Copying

2Productivity

If graphical information is made changeable to enable automated artwork creation, then productivity improves, but control over artistic precision becomes more difficult

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveartwork creation speedVSAvoidartistic control
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSManufacturing precision

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies parameter changes by systematically varying specific parameters such as position, size, shape, and orientation of basic objects through controlled mathematical transformations. This allows automated artwork creation with maintained precision, as each transformation parameter is deliberately adjusted within defined ranges to achieve desired artistic effects while preserving control over the final output quality.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes
