Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If traditional e-commerce payment systems or e-card systems are used for gift-giving, then monetary or sentimental gifts can be delivered across geographic distances, but the gift-giving experience becomes boring and unimaginative compared to in-person gift giving
Solution Approach 1:
The gift-giving process is segmented into distinct phases: gift selection by the provider, hidden object placement on a web page, and redemption by the recipient. This segmentation allows each party to engage with different aspects of the process, creating a more engaging experience that mimics the personal touch of in-person gift-giving while maintaining geographic flexibility
Solution Approach 2:
The patent introduces a spatial dimension to electronic gift-giving by hiding objects at specific locations on a web page. This transforms the flat, two-dimensional electronic transaction into a three-dimensional experience where the recipient must physically locate and interact with the hidden gift object, adding engagement and imagination to the process
2Adaptability or versatility
If existing e-commerce systems are used, then gifts can be delivered electronically, but the systems are limited to purely monetary or sentimental gifts without the personal touch of in-person gifting
Solution Approach 1:
The system creates a digital copy of the physical gift-giving experience by placing a representation of the gift object on a web page at a specific location. This digital copy maintains the personal touch of in-person gifting while enabling electronic delivery, allowing the recipient to experience the joy of finding and claiming their gift in a virtual environment that mirrors physical gift-giving
