Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Measurement precision
If multiple diagnostic software or physical inspections are used to diagnose device functionality, then diagnostic accuracy is improved, but device complexity and ease of operation worsen
Solution Approach 1:
The patent combines multiple diagnostic software tools and physical inspection methods into a single integrated diagnostic system that can be initiated through one command, eliminating the need to manually launch multiple separate diagnostic programs while maintaining comprehensive diagnostic coverage
Solution Approach 2:
The diagnostic system is designed to perform multiple diagnostic functions simultaneously through a single interface, allowing one diagnostic tool to replace multiple specialized tools while maintaining the ability to diagnose various device components and functionalities
2Reliability
If multiple diagnostic software are initiated to perform comprehensive diagnostic testing, then diagnostic completeness is improved, but device complexity worsens
Solution Approach 1:
The patent merges multiple diagnostic software components into a single integrated diagnostic platform that coordinates and executes comprehensive diagnostic tests through one unified interface, reducing system complexity while maintaining diagnostic completeness
Solution Approach 2:
The diagnostic system is segmented into modular components that can be independently managed but are coordinated through a central control mechanism, allowing comprehensive diagnostics to be performed through a single initiation point while maintaining organizational simplicity
