Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If digital television broadcasting is used for program distribution, then images are delivered unilaterally to the viewer, but it becomes difficult for viewers to give tips to program performers
Solution Approach 1:
The patent combines data broadcasting with digital television broadcasting to create an integrated system. The data broadcasting content is superimposed on or displayed alongside the main program, allowing viewers to interact with tipping functionality while watching the program. This merging of broadcasting systems enables tip-giving capability without requiring viewers to switch to a completely different platform.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent introduces a data broadcasting layer as an intermediary between the viewer and the program performer. This intermediary layer provides the tipping interface and communication channel, allowing viewers to send tips to performers through the data broadcasting content while the main program continues to play. The intermediary facilitates the interaction without disrupting the primary broadcasting function.
2Ease of operation
If a tip function is integrated into data broadcasting content, then viewers can easily give tips during program viewing, but the system requires coordination between multiple broadcasting systems
Solution Approach 1:
The data broadcasting content serves multiple functions: it displays program information, provides tipping functionality, and maintains compatibility with existing digital television broadcasting infrastructure. By making the system multi-functional, the patent enables tip-giving capability while preserving the universality of the broadcasting platform for other purposes.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent segments the broadcasting system into separate functional layers: the main program broadcasting layer and the data broadcasting content layer. This segmentation allows the tipping functionality to be added as an independent module within the data broadcasting content, improving system adaptability and reducing the complexity of integrating multiple functions into a single system.
