Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If multiple shafts are used to increase motion range, then actual feeling effects are improved, but device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies multi-functionality by integrating multiple sensing functions (contact, voice, video) into a single control system that handles both motion control and safety monitoring, reducing the need for separate dedicated systems for each function
2Measurement precision
If recognition means for aid signals is added, then user intention recognition is improved, but device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent merges multiple sensing modalities (contact sensors, voice sensors, video sensors) into an integrated action detection unit that processes various types of user inputs through a unified control system, improving intention recognition while managing system complexity through consolidation
Solution Approach 2:
The control system is designed to handle multiple functions including motion control, intention recognition, and safety monitoring through a single integrated unit, reducing the need for separate dedicated systems
3Reliability
If security means for dangerous situation sensing is added, then user safety is improved, but device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent combines safety monitoring functions with the existing action detection and control systems, using the same sensors and processing units to serve both operational control and safety purposes, thereby improving safety without proportionally increasing system complexity
4Adaptability or versatility
If multiple sensing information types are processed, then user interaction realism is improved, but information processing complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The control system is designed as a multi-functional unit that processes contact, voice, and video information through integrated algorithms, enabling the system to handle multiple information types without requiring separate dedicated processing systems for each modality
