Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing virtual space systems fail to effectively immerse users by reflecting real-world changes over time, limiting user engagement and connection to the virtual environment.
Innovation Solution
A management system that includes sensors to observe real-space targets, a server to calculate and reflect the degree of change, and a user apparatus to display the updated virtual space, allowing dynamic reflection of real-space changes such as plant growth or product inventory, enhanced with non-fungible tokens for ownership verification.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If static weather information is used in the virtual space, then the system is simple to implement, but user immersion is limited
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies dynamics by transitioning from static weather information to dynamic real-time weather data. The system continuously updates virtual space weather conditions based on current real-world weather measurements, making the virtual environment dynamically reflect actual conditions. This resolves the contradiction by implementing complexity only where needed for dynamic updates while maintaining simplicity in the core virtual space structure.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent implements feedback mechanisms where real-time weather data from sensors is continuously fed back into the virtual space representation. The system monitors actual weather conditions and automatically updates the corresponding virtual environment, creating a closed-loop feedback system that enhances user immersion without requiring complex manual intervention.
2Reliability
If real-time observation of target changes is implemented, then user immersion is enhanced, but measurement and detection complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies copying by creating a virtual replica of the real-world target that mirrors its state changes. Instead of directly measuring every physical change in the real world, the system copies the target's state into the virtual space, where changes are detected and reflected. This resolves the contradiction by simplifying detection through virtual representation while maintaining accurate reflection of real-world changes.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent uses the virtual space as an intermediary between the real-world target and the user. The virtual representation acts as a mediator that translates real-world changes into understandable virtual changes, reducing the complexity of direct measurement and detection while enhancing user perception and immersion.
3Productivity
If dynamic reflection of real-space changes is added, then user engagement is improved, but system complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies universality by designing a multi-functional virtual space that can reflect various types of real-world changes (weather, target state, etc.) through a unified system architecture. The same core mechanism handles different types of observations and reflections, increasing user engagement across multiple scenarios without proportionally increasing system complexity.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent uses parameter changes by dynamically adjusting virtual space parameters (weather conditions, target properties) based on real-world measurements. Instead of adding complex new systems for each type of reflection, the system changes existing parameters in response to detected changes, improving engagement while maintaining relatively simple system architecture.

AI summary
A management system that provides a virtual space to a user includes a user apparatus used by the user, a sensor configured to observe change over time of a target present in a real space, and a server configured to transmit information for providing the virtual space to the user apparatus. The server is configured to obtain a detection result by the sensor, calculate a degree of change of the target based on the detection result, and arrange in the virtual space, an object representing the target on which the degree of change is reflected.
