Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Loss of information
If meta data and spectral data are simultaneously transmitted to the cloud server, then complete information is provided for analysis, but network transmission traffic is consumed unnecessarily and transmission delay increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent extracts and separates meta data from spectral data transmission. The mobile apparatus transmits only spectral data to the cloud server, while meta data is processed and utilized locally by the mobile apparatus. This extraction of unnecessary meta data transmission resolves the contradiction by maintaining information completeness for analysis while eliminating redundant network traffic consumption.
2Ease of operation
If meta data is transmitted by user without regulation, then user flexibility is maintained, but object analysis and model building are affected and correctness and consistency cannot be controlled
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments the data handling responsibilities between mobile apparatus and cloud server. The mobile apparatus handles meta data collection and preliminary processing locally, while the cloud server focuses on spectral data analysis. This segmentation allows user flexibility in meta data input while ensuring analysis consistency through standardized spectral data processing protocols at the server level.
Solution Approach 2:
The mobile apparatus acts as an intermediary between the user and the cloud server. It regulates and processes user-input meta data locally before analysis, ensuring that only properly formatted and validated data is used in object analysis and model building. This intermediary role maintains both user flexibility and analysis reliability.
3Extent of automation
If all data is transmitted to cloud server, then centralized processing is achieved, but storage space requirements increase
Solution Approach 1:
The patent extracts meta data from the transmission stream and retains it locally at the mobile apparatus. Only essential spectral data is transmitted to and stored at the cloud server. This extraction significantly reduces the storage space requirements at the server while maintaining centralized processing capabilities for spectral analysis.

AI summary
A spectrometer system including a spectrometer device, a mobile apparatus and a cloud server is provided. The spectrometer device scans a target object according to one of a plurality of sets of spectral scan setting parameters to generate spectral data. The mobile apparatus sets the spectrometer device to select one set from the plurality of sets spectral scan setting parameters for scanning the target object. The mobile apparatus receives the spectral data from the spectrometer device and outputs the spectral data. The cloud server stores detection models and the spectral data received from the mobile apparatus, and analyzes the spectral data according to one of the detection models to output an analysis result to the mobile apparatus. The spectrometer system can reduce network transmission traffic and prevent object analysis and model building from being affected by unregulated spectral data so correctness of spectral scan can be controlled.
