Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Manufacturing precision
If touch inputs or literal inputs are displayed directly on the background image without correction, then the display process is simple, but the inputs do not harmonize with the quality or shape of the background image, resulting in unnatural representation
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies preliminary action by pre-processing the background image to extract edge components and store them before actual input display. When a touch or literal input occurs, the system retrieves these pre-computed edge components and applies them to the input coordinates, transforming the input to harmonize with the background. This allows accurate and harmonious display without adding complex real-time processing during input events.
2Adaptability or versatility
If edge components of the background image are extracted and applied to input coordinates, then the input harmonizes with the background quality and shape, but additional processing steps are required
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs edge component extraction and storage as a preliminary action before actual input processing. This pre-computation allows the system to adapt inputs to various background images without requiring complex real-time analysis during input events, thereby achieving high adaptability while managing processing complexity through advance preparation.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent uses copying by creating a transformed version of the input at the distorted coordinates determined by the edge components. Instead of modifying the original input or the background image, the system generates a copied representation of the input that is harmonized with the background, preserving the original elements while achieving the desired adaptation effect.
3Manufacturing precision
If distorted coordinate points are calculated by applying edge components to input coordinates, then the representation becomes more accurate and harmonious, but the processing time increases
Solution Approach 1:
By pre-computing and storing edge components of the background image, the system eliminates the need for time-consuming edge detection during input processing. The distorted coordinate calculation becomes a simpler transformation operation that applies pre-existing edge component data, significantly reducing processing time while maintaining high coordinate accuracy for harmonious input representation.
