Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If subjective evaluation methods are used to assess light environment parameters, then the evaluation process is simple to conduct, but the reliability and objectivity of the evaluation results deteriorate
Solution Approach 1:
The patent replaces the mechanical/manual subjective evaluation system with an automated optical measurement system. Specifically, it uses a luminance spectrophotometer to objectively measure light environment parameters (color temperature, color rendering index, brightness) and an eye movement recorder to automatically capture driver visual behavior data, eliminating the need for subjective human judgment while improving evaluation reliability.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent introduces an intermediary measurement and analysis system between the light environment and the evaluation process. This intermediary system includes the luminance spectrophotometer for measuring light parameters, the eye movement recorder for capturing visual behavior, and the computer system for analyzing the relationship between light parameters and visual recognition efficiency, thereby providing objective data-driven evaluation results.
2Measurement precision
If comprehensive light environment parameter analysis is conducted to improve visual efficacy evaluation accuracy, then the measurement precision improves, but the device complexity and test complexity increase
Solution Approach 1:
The patent employs a multi-functional integrated testing system where a single setup can measure multiple light environment parameters (color temperature, color rendering index, brightness) simultaneously using the luminance spectrophotometer, and can also record and analyze eye movement patterns. This universal system reduces the need for multiple separate testing devices while maintaining comprehensive measurement capabilities.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent replaces complex manual testing procedures with automated measurement and analysis systems. The luminance spectrophotometer automatically measures light parameters, the eye movement recorder automatically captures visual behavior data, and the computer system automatically analyzes the relationship between light parameters and visual recognition efficiency, significantly reducing test complexity despite comprehensive measurement requirements.
3Loss of information
If multiple light environment parameters (color temperature, color rendering, brightness) are analyzed simultaneously, then the comprehensiveness of visual efficacy evaluation improves, but the difficulty of detecting and measuring increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent uses a luminance spectrophotometer to automatically and simultaneously measure multiple light environment parameters (color temperature, color rendering index, brightness) that would be difficult to measure comprehensively by manual methods. The device objectively captures spectral data and calculates all required parameters in one measurement process, reducing measurement difficulty while maintaining information completeness.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent introduces the luminance spectrophotometer as an intermediary measurement tool that bridges the complex task of measuring multiple light parameters and the need for comprehensive visual efficacy evaluation. This intermediary device handles the complexity of simultaneous multi-parameter measurement and provides processed data to the analysis system, making the overall process more manageable.
