Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If real-world situation data is obtained and used to coordinate simulation processes, then user engagement and immersion are improved, but system complexity and data processing requirements increase
Solution Approach 1:
The system is divided into distinct functional modules: an image capturing unit that captures real-world situations, a situation data obtaining unit that extracts relevant data, and a simulation process executing unit that runs coordinated simulations. This segmentation allows each module to handle specific tasks independently, managing complexity while achieving real-world coordination.
Solution Approach 2:
Situation data serves as an intermediary element that bridges the real-world captured images and the simulation process. The situation data obtaining unit extracts key parameters from captured images, and this situation data is then used by the simulation process executing unit to coordinate the simulation with real-world events, acting as a mediator between reality and simulation.
2Measurement precision
If real-time situation data is obtained and processed, then coordination accuracy between real-world and simulation is improved, but data processing time and computational load increase
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs preliminary actions by capturing images and extracting situation data in advance of when the simulation needs to run. The situation data obtaining unit prepares the data structure and extracts relevant parameters beforehand, so that when the simulation process executing unit needs to coordinate with real-world events, the data is already prepared and ready for immediate use, reducing processing delays.
3Ease of operation
If user interaction is allowed to change simulation behavior, then user engagement is improved, but control complexity and response time requirements increase
Solution Approach 1:
The system implements feedback by allowing user operations to directly influence the simulation process executing unit. When a user performs an operation, the system processes this input and adjusts the simulation behavior accordingly, providing immediate feedback to the user. This creates an interactive loop where user actions are reflected in the simulation, enhancing engagement while maintaining manageable control complexity through direct mapping of user inputs to simulation parameters.

AI summary
A situation data obtaining unit obtains situation data describing a situation of an image capturing target of which image is captured by an image capturing device for producing an image to be output. Based on the situation data, a simulation process executing unit carries out a simulation process for simulating a behavior of the image capturing target after the situation of the image capturing target, described by the situation data. A combined screen image output unit outputs a result of the simulation process by the simulation process executing unit. The simulation process executing unit changes the behavior of the image capturing target in the simulation process in response to an operation received from a user.
