Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If moving images from multiple mobile terminals are transmitted, then the variety of available moving images increases, but it becomes difficult for users to select desired moving images

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvevariety of moving imagesVSAvoidselection difficulty
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The patent segments the large set of moving images from multiple mobile terminals into organized lists with selection objects. Each selection object represents a manageable unit that users can easily identify and choose from, rather than presenting all moving images as a single overwhelming collection.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The patent introduces an information processing device as an intermediary between mobile terminals and users. This device manages the complexity of multiple moving image sources by creating structured lists and handling selection logic, thereby simplifying the user interface while maintaining access to diverse content.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

2Measurement precision

If list information includes detailed selection objects for multiple mobile terminals, then selection accuracy improves, but information processing complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveselection accuracyVSAvoidinformation processing complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The information processing device performs preliminary actions by pre-organizing moving images into structured lists with selection objects before user interaction. This pre-processing includes associating moving images with mobile terminal information and creating manageable selection structures, which reduces the complexity during actual user selection.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The patent changes the parameter organization of moving image data by transforming raw moving images into structured list information with selection objects. This parameter transformation includes adding metadata, organizing by mobile terminal, and creating hierarchical structures that improve selection accuracy without proportionally increasing processing complexity.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

3Loss of information

If map information is provided to show mobile terminal positions, then user understanding of moving image context improves, but data transmission and processing load increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecontext informationVSAvoiddata transmission load
Core Design Contradiction:
Loss of informationVSLoss of energy

Solution Approach 1:

The patent extracts only the essential map information needed for user understanding - specifically the positions of mobile terminals relative to the user's own position. Rather than transmitting complete map data or detailed environmental information, only the critical positional context is extracted and transmitted, reducing data load while maintaining contextual understanding.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #2Taking out (Extraction)

AI summary

An information processing device 1 includes: a list acquisition portion 134 that acquires list information including selection objects corresponding to each of a plurality of mobile terminals that match a selection condition, the selection objects being for selecting moving images transmitted by mobile terminals; a list output portion 142 that outputs the list information; a selection acceptance portion 123 that accepts an instruction for one selection object with respect to a list using the list information; a moving image acquisition portion 135 that acquires a moving image associated with the one selection object for the instruction accepted by the selection acceptance portion 123; and a moving image output portion 143 that outputs the moving image, thereby moving images desired by users may be provided from moving images transmitted by a plurality of mobile terminals.
