Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
The introduction of robots with diverse services into facilities becomes complicated due to the complexity of investigating suitable robot types and suppliers.
Innovation Solution
A matching method and system that uses a computer to match introduction-desired persons with robot suppliers by obtaining and analyzing request and supply information, facilitating appropriate supplier selection based on request criteria.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If services to be executed by the robot are made diverse, then the robot's versatility is improved, but the investigation complexity for the introduction-desired person increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent introduces a matching system as an intermediary between the introduction-desired person and multiple suppliers. This system automatically matches the user's requirements with supplier capabilities, eliminating the need for the user to manually investigate diverse service options. The matching system processes the complexity behind the scenes while presenting simplified results to the user.
Solution Approach 2:
The matching system enables self-service by automatically performing the investigation and matching process without requiring active user involvement. The system independently analyzes service diversity, compares suppliers, and generates matches, allowing the introduction-desired person to benefit from diverse robot services without bearing the investigation burden.
2Ease of operation
If the robot introduction process is simplified, then the ease of operation is improved, but the matching accuracy may deteriorate
Solution Approach 1:
The matching system acts as an intelligent intermediary that maintains high matching accuracy while keeping the user interface simple. It handles the complex matching logic internally and presents only the final matched results to the user, thereby achieving both simplicity for the user and accuracy in matching through the intermediary's sophisticated processing.
Solution Approach 2:
The system creates a virtual model of the matching process that replicates complex evaluation criteria without requiring the user to physically engage with each criterion. By copying and processing requirements data through automated algorithms, the system maintains accuracy while simplifying the user's interaction to merely providing initial requirements and receiving matches.

AI summary
The matching method according to the present embodiment is a matching method for matching a robot introduction-desired person and a robot supplier using a computer, wherein request information regarding the robot introduction from the introduction-desired person is acquired, supply information regarding a robot that can be supplied by the supplier is acquired, matching is performed based on the request information and the supply information, and a matching result is notified to at least one of the introduction-desired person and the supplier. The matching device may generate the matching using a machine learning model such as deep learning.
