Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If the autonomous mobile robot is designed for a single transport service, then the device structure is simple and reliable, but the service versatility is limited
Solution Approach 1:
The management system implements multi-functionality by enabling the autonomous mobile robot to execute multiple different services through a unified control platform. The system acquires service information for various services (transport, delivery, cleaning, etc.), manages control parameters for each service type, and controls the robot's operations accordingly, allowing one robot to perform multiple functions without requiring separate specialized robots for each service
2Adaptability or versatility
If the autonomous mobile robot is equipped with multiple accessory units for different services, then the service versatility is improved, but the device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The management system provides a universal control platform that manages multiple accessory units and service types through a single integrated system. It acquires service information that identifies which accessory unit should be used for each service, manages control parameters specific to each service-accessory combination, and coordinates the robot's operations with the appropriate accessory unit, thereby achieving service versatility without proportionally increasing system complexity
Solution Approach 2:
The system dynamically configures the robot's operational parameters and accessory unit selection based on the specific service requirements. The management system adjusts control parameters in real-time according to the service being executed, enabling the robot to adapt its configuration and behavior dynamically rather than requiring fixed hardware for each service type
