Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Measurement precision
If image filtering and detection algorithms are applied to detect rounded objects, then detection precision is improved, but processing time increases
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs preliminary actions by pre-defining object templates and detection parameters before actual detection begins. The rounded object detector is pre-configured with shape characteristics and size ranges, allowing faster processing during real-time operation without sacrificing detection precision.
Solution Approach 2:
The system applies partial action by focusing detection resources only on regions of interest within the image where rounded objects are likely to appear. Rather than processing the entire image uniformly, the detector concentrates computational effort on specific areas, reducing overall processing time while maintaining detection accuracy.
2Adaptability or versatility
If multiple computing devices are integrated for augmented reality processing, then functional versatility is improved, but system complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The computing devices are designed with universal interfaces and standardized communication protocols that enable them to perform multiple functions across different augmented reality applications. The same device architecture supports object detection, tracking, and rendering tasks, reducing the need for specialized hardware while maintaining functional versatility.
Solution Approach 2:
The system introduces intermediary software layers and communication interfaces that mediate between multiple computing devices. These intermediaries handle device coordination, data exchange, and synchronization, simplifying the overall system architecture by abstracting the complexity of multi-device integration from individual device components.
