Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If inspector authentication based on biological information is implemented, then inspection reliability is improved, but device complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveinspection reliabilityVSAvoiddevice complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The authentication terminal is integrated into the existing inspection system, serving both as an inspection device and an authentication device. This multi-functional approach allows biological information-based authentication without requiring completely separate authentication equipment, thus improving reliability while limiting the increase in device complexity.

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

Solution Approach 2:

The system automatically captures biological information (such as facial images) and performs authentication without requiring manual intervention or additional authentication devices. The inspection system itself provides the authentication function, reducing the need for separate complex authentication equipment.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

2Loss of information

If association storage of moving body identification information, inspection item identification information, and inspector identification information is implemented, then information completeness is improved, but data management complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveinformation completenessVSAvoiddata management complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Loss of informationVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The system combines multiple identification information types (moving body, inspection item, and inspector) into a single associated record in the storage unit. This integrated approach ensures information completeness by capturing all necessary data points together, while simplifying data management through unified storage and retrieval operations compared to maintaining separate data structures.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)
