Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
There is a lack of effective methods and equipment to improve the physiological state of domesticated animals, particularly in enhancing brain function and overall well-being, leading to increased medical care costs and reduced quality of life for pets like cats and dogs.
Innovation Solution
Irradiating domesticated animals with light of a specific wavelength region, such as violet light, continuously or in pulses at a specific frequency, using a light irradiating apparatus controlled by a controller to enhance physiological state.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If supplements are used to improve brain function of aged cats and dogs, then physiological state is improved, but device complexity and cost increase
Solution Approach 1:
The patent replaces complex mechanical/electronic brain stimulation equipment with a simple light irradiation system. Instead of using sophisticated devices to stimulate brain activity, the invention uses violet light irradiation apparatus that can be integrated into everyday items like glasses or headbands, dramatically simplifying the system while maintaining effectiveness in improving physiological state of aged animals
Solution Approach 2:
The light irradiation apparatus is designed to serve multiple functions: it can be worn as eyeglasses, headbands, or integrated into existing accessories, allowing it to work for different animals and different durations. This universal design reduces the need for multiple specialized devices, thereby reducing overall system complexity and cost
2Reliability
If medical care is provided to aged pets, then quality of life is maintained, but cost increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies preliminary action by using light irradiation to proactively improve brain function and physiological state before serious health issues develop. By regularly irradiating aged animals with violet light, the system prevents cognitive decline and age-related conditions, reducing the need for expensive medical interventions later
Solution Approach 2:
The invention converts the harmful effects of aging (brain function decline, cognitive impairment) into a beneficial outcome through light irradiation. By targeting the root cause of age-related deterioration, the system transforms a problematic state into an improved physiological condition, reducing reliance on costly medical care
