Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If home rehabilitation is conducted without direct guidance from physiatrists, then patient convenience and accessibility are improved, but exercise intensity control deteriorates leading to insufficient or excessive exercise volume
Solution Approach 1:
The system implements real-time feedback mechanisms through wearable devices that monitor exercise intensity parameters (heart rate, oxygen saturation, respiratory rate) and provide immediate feedback to patients via mobile apps. This allows patients to self-adjust exercise intensity without direct physician supervision, maintaining both accessibility and measurement precision.
Solution Approach 2:
The system enables patients to independently manage their rehabilitation programs through automated exercise prescription generation, real-time monitoring, and AI-driven adjustment of exercise parameters. Patients can perform home rehabilitation autonomously while the system ensures proper intensity control through continuous data collection and algorithmic prescription optimization.
2Measurement precision
If precision instruments and equipment are used to measure exercise intensity (target heart rate, VO2max), then measurement precision is improved, but device complexity and equipment requirements increase making them unsuitable for home environments
Solution Approach 1:
The system replaces expensive, complex precision instruments with affordable, portable wearable devices that can be easily deployed in home environments. These wearable devices provide sufficient measurement precision for exercise intensity monitoring without requiring large-scale equipment or specialized facilities.
Solution Approach 2:
The system substitutes complex mechanical measurement equipment with electronic sensing technologies integrated into wearable devices. Sensors continuously monitor physiological parameters (heart rate, oxygen saturation, respiratory rate) and transmit data wirelessly, eliminating the need for bulky laboratory equipment while maintaining measurement accuracy.
3Device complexity
If current classification methods for training methods are used, then system simplicity is maintained, but the ability to describe differences between training plans and establish correlation with patient evaluation results deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The system segments training methods into detailed categories based on body parts (legs, arms, trunk), exercise types (aerobic, strength, flexibility), and intensity levels. This segmentation allows precise differentiation between training plans for individual patients while maintaining systematic organization through the mobile application interface.
Solution Approach 2:
The system applies local quality by customizing training plan characteristics according to specific patient needs, evaluation results, and individual conditions. Each patient receives a tailored training prescription with specific parameters (duration, intensity, frequency) that differ from generic protocols, enabling precise matching between evaluation data and training recommendations.
