Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If touch channel switching is used to operate external access devices, then the touch operation can be performed on different systems, but the control process becomes cumbersome and user experience deteriorates

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvetouch operation capabilityVSAvoidcontrol process
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The patent merges the touch channel resources by allowing multiple platforms (main control platform and external access platforms) to share the same touch module simultaneously. The touch module can receive and process touch inputs for different platforms through a unified interface, eliminating the need for users to switch between separate touch channels. This is achieved by implementing a touch data routing mechanism that directs touch inputs to the appropriate platform based on the current active state, thereby simplifying the control process while maintaining multi-platform operation capability.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

Solution Approach 2:

The touch module is designed with universal functionality to serve multiple platforms through a single interface. The system implements a platform identification and routing mechanism that allows the same touch module to handle operations for both the main control platform and external access platforms. The touch data processing architecture includes a routing layer that determines which platform should receive the touch input based on the current operational context, enabling one touch channel to perform multiple functions across different systems without requiring channel switching.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)

2Adaptability or versatility

If touch channel switching is implemented for multi-system access, then external access devices can be operated, but the system complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvemulti-system accessVSAvoidcontrol system
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent introduces an intermediary routing mechanism between the touch module and multiple platforms. This intermediary layer includes a platform identification module and a touch data routing module that automatically direct touch inputs to the appropriate destination platform. Instead of requiring complex user-side channel switching, the system implements server-side or system-side routing logic that transparently manages touch data distribution. This intermediary architecture reduces the apparent complexity for users while maintaining the capability to access multiple systems, as the routing decisions are handled automatically by the system infrastructure.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

Solution Approach 2:

The system segments the touch data processing flow into distinct functional modules: touch data acquisition by the touch module, platform identification by the main control platform, routing decision-making, and targeted delivery to the specific platform. This segmentation allows each module to perform its function independently and efficiently, reducing the complexity of any single component while enabling sophisticated multi-platform support. The modular architecture makes the system more manageable and easier to maintain compared to a monolithic touch channel switching approach.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation
