Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Manufacturing precision

If manual graphic design process is used to generate images of varying dimensions, then design quality and proportionality can be maintained, but significant time and resources are required

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedesign element proportionalityVSAvoidimage generation time
Core Design Contradiction:
Manufacturing precisionVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies preliminary action by pre-defining design templates with established proportionality rules, look and feel parameters, and design element relationships. These templates are prepared in advance so that when an image generation request comes in, the system can automatically apply the pre-established design rules without manual intervention, thus maintaining design quality while reducing generation time

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The patent uses parameter changes by allowing the automated system to adjust various design parameters (such as element sizes, spacing, colors, and positioning) based on the requested dimensions while maintaining the proportional relationships defined in the templates. This enables the system to generate dimensionally accurate images automatically while preserving design element proportionality

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

2Productivity

If automated image generation is implemented, then productivity increases, but the ability to maintain proper proportionality and look and feel of design elements is lost

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveimage generation efficiencyVSAvoiddesign element proportionality
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSManufacturing precision

Solution Approach 1:

The patent implements feedback by having the automated system continuously reference and apply the pre-defined template rules and proportionality constraints during the image generation process. The system automatically adjusts design elements to conform to the established design standards, ensuring that even though generation is automated, the output maintains proper proportionality and look and feel

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

Solution Approach 2:

The patent applies universality by creating reusable design templates that can be applied across multiple image generation requests. These templates encapsulate universal design rules, proportionality relationships, and aesthetic principles that can be automatically applied to generate consistent quality images for various dimensions and requirements without manual intervention each time

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

3Adaptability or versatility

If additional subject matter is incorporated into images, then customization increases, but the complexity of maintaining proportionality and look and feel increases significantly

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveimage customizationVSAvoiddesign process complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies segmentation by dividing the image into distinct layers or components, with the base image containing the primary design elements subject to proportionality rules, and additional subject matter incorporated as separate layers. This segmentation allows the system to maintain proportionality controls on the base elements while allowing flexibility in adding custom content, reducing the overall complexity of the design process

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation
