Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Speed
If the sensitivity of the motion sensor is increased to improve responsiveness in game applications, then the operation of the game character becomes more responsive, but the application may easily malfunction and affect user experience in other types of applications
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements dynamic sensitivity adjustment by detecting the current application type and automatically adjusting the motion sensor sensitivity accordingly. The system transitions from a static sensitivity setting to a dynamic one that adapts based on the running application, thereby achieving high responsiveness for games while maintaining stability for other applications.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent changes the sensitivity parameter of the motion sensor based on the application type. By detecting whether a game application or other application is running, the system adjusts the sensitivity parameter to appropriate levels, resolving the contradiction between responsiveness and stability across different application scenarios.
2Adaptability or versatility
If a single sensitivity setting is used for all applications, then the device configuration is simple, but it cannot simultaneously optimize performance for both game applications and other applications
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs self-service by automatically detecting the current application type and adjusting the motion sensor sensitivity without requiring manual user configuration. The device autonomously adapts to different application scenarios, achieving high adaptability while keeping the user interface simple and avoiding complex manual sensitivity settings.
Solution Approach 2:
The sensitivity adjustment mechanism serves multiple application types through a single unified system. By detecting different application categories (games vs. other applications), the system provides optimized sensitivity settings for various scenarios using one multi-functional adjustment mechanism, thereby achieving versatility without proportionally increasing device complexity.
