Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Manufacturing precision

If traditional 3D content generation methods are used, then stereoscopic display capability is enabled, but image edge blurring occurs and depth perception range is limited

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveimage qualityVSAvoiddepth perception range
Core Design Contradiction:
Manufacturing precisionVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies dynamics by making the projection parameter adjustable based on scene type. Instead of using a fixed projection parameter, the system dynamically selects different projection parameters according to the recognized scene type (e.g., close-up, medium shot, wide shot), allowing the depth perception range to adapt to different viewing scenarios and eliminating the limitation of fixed depth ranges

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

Solution Approach 2:

The patent implements parameter changes by modifying the projection parameter based on scene type recognition. The system changes the projection parameter values according to the specific scene characteristics, which directly addresses the image edge blurring issue by optimizing the projection settings for different scene types, thereby improving image quality while maintaining accurate depth perception

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

2Device complexity

If fixed projection parameters are used, then processing simplicity is maintained, but depth perception range becomes limited

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveprocessing complexityVSAvoiddepth perception range
Core Design Contradiction:
Device complexityVSAdaptability or versatility

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies preliminary action by pre-defining multiple projection parameters corresponding to different scene types. The system performs scene type recognition first, then selects the appropriate pre-prepared projection parameter, avoiding the need for complex real-time calculations while still achieving adaptive depth perception across various viewing scenarios

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The system changes projection parameters based on recognized scene types, transitioning from fixed to variable parameters. This approach maintains processing simplicity through automated scene-based selection while significantly improving adaptability, allowing the same system to handle close-up, medium shot, and wide shot scenarios with appropriate depth perception ranges for each

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

3Adaptability or versatility

If generic 3D generation technology is applied, then 3D content can be created from monocular images, but image edge blurring is prone to occur

Engineering Contradiction:
Improve3D content generation capabilityVSAvoidimage quality
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSManufacturing precision

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies local quality by treating different regions of the image differently based on scene type. The system recognizes the overall scene type and applies the appropriate projection parameter that is optimized for that specific scene characteristics, ensuring that edge regions and depth regions are processed with the most suitable parameters for that scene, thereby reducing edge blurring while maintaining 3D generation capability

Inventive Principle:
Principle #3Local quality

Solution Approach 2:

The system changes projection parameters according to scene type to improve image quality. By selecting different projection parameters for different scene types (close-up, medium shot, wide shot), the system optimizes the 3D generation process for each scenario, reducing the edge blurring problem that occurs with generic parameters while preserving the ability to generate 3D content from monocular images

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes
