Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If autonomous driving systems take over operational decisions completely, then user comfort is improved, but user trust deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The system continuously monitors user behavior through sensor units and uses this feedback to dynamically adjust driving parameters. The control unit processes this feedback and modifies operational decisions to match user preferences, creating a closed-loop system that balances automation with user-specific customization, thereby maintaining both comfort and trust.
Solution Approach 2:
The system performs preliminary analysis of user behavior patterns during initial driving phases and pre-adjusts driving parameters before critical situations arise. By proactively learning and storing user-specific preferences in advance, the system prepares customized operational decisions that align with user expectations, enhancing both comfort and trust before they are needed.
2Reliability
If driving parameters are customized for each user, then user trust is improved, but device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The control unit serves multiple functions: it monitors sensor data, analyzes user behavior patterns, stores preferences in memory, and adjusts driving parameters. This multi-functional design consolidates what could be separate complex systems into a single integrated unit, reducing overall system complexity while maintaining customization capabilities.
Solution Approach 2:
The system automatically learns and adapts to user preferences without requiring manual configuration or complex setup procedures. The sensor units and control unit work autonomously to detect, analyze, and adjust driving parameters based on observed user behavior, eliminating the need for complex user interfaces or manual calibration processes.
3Measurement precision
If sensor units monitor user behavior continuously, then driving parameter accuracy is improved, but energy consumption increases
Solution Approach 1:
The sensor units and control unit operate in periodic cycles rather than continuously, monitoring user behavior at intervals and processing data in batches. This periodic operation maintains measurement precision by regularly updating driving parameters while significantly reducing energy consumption compared to continuous monitoring, as the system can enter low-power states between measurement cycles.
