Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If signal intensity is increased to maximum to ensure touch information generation, then touch interaction reliability is improved, but power consumption increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies dynamics by making the signal intensity adjustable rather than fixed at maximum. The second electronic device dynamically adjusts the intensity of signals sent to the touch assembly based on feedback parameter information from the first electronic device, allowing the system to adapt signal strength to actual needs and reduce unnecessary power consumption while maintaining reliable touch interaction.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent changes the parameter of signal intensity from a fixed maximum value to a variable parameter that can be adjusted based on touch assembly characteristics. By obtaining parameter information about the touch assembly and using it to determine appropriate signal intensity levels, the system optimizes the balance between reliable touch detection and power consumption.
2Use of energy by moving object
If signal intensity is reduced to save power, then power consumption decreases, but touch information generation reliability deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements a feedback mechanism where the first electronic device sends parameter information about the touch assembly to the second electronic device. Based on this feedback, the second device determines the appropriate signal intensity needed to reliably generate touch information without excessive power consumption, thus resolving the contradiction between power savings and reliability.
Solution Approach 2:
The system performs preliminary action by obtaining parameter information about the touch assembly before determining signal intensity. This advance knowledge allows the second electronic device to set the appropriate signal intensity level from the outset, ensuring reliable touch information generation while avoiding unnecessary power consumption that would occur with maximum intensity signals.
3Device complexity
If fixed maximum signal intensity is used, then device complexity is reduced, but adaptability to different touch assemblies deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies universality by creating a signal control system that can adapt to different types of touch assemblies through parameter information exchange. The second electronic device uses the obtained parameter information to universally determine appropriate signal intensities for various touch assembly types, making the system versatile without requiring complex dedicated control circuits for each device type.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent introduces parameter information as an intermediary that bridges the gap between different electronic devices with different touch assemblies. This intermediary data enables the second electronic device to adapt its signal intensity to match the characteristics of various touch assemblies without requiring complex direct control mechanisms, thus maintaining simplicity while improving adaptability.
