Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If traditional VR virtual desktop solutions are used, then users can access and control applications in VR environment, but there are no efficient means to configure the appearance (size and height) of virtual desktops
Solution Approach 1:
The patent replaces traditional mechanical or menu-based configuration systems with a gesture-based control system. Users perform hand gestures in the VR environment to directly manipulate and configure virtual desktop parameters such as size and height, eliminating the need for complex configuration menus or physical controls.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent introduces gesture recognition technology as an intermediary between the user and the virtual desktop configuration system. The gesture recognition system translates physical hand movements into configuration commands, serving as a natural mediator that simplifies the interaction process while enabling precise control over virtual desktop appearance.
2Ease of operation
If hand gesture tracking is implemented for virtual plane configuration, then users can intuitively adjust size and position, but the system complexity increases with tracking and processing requirements
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs self-service by automatically tracking hand gestures and translating them into configuration actions without requiring additional user effort. The gesture recognition and processing systems operate autonomously, continuously monitoring hand movements and automatically adjusting virtual plane parameters based on detected gestures, eliminating the need for manual configuration steps.
3Adaptability or versatility
If multiple control functions are integrated into the host device, then comprehensive virtual plane control is achieved, but the device complexity and resource requirements increase
Solution Approach 1:
The host device is designed with multi-functionality to perform diverse virtual plane control operations through a unified gesture recognition system. The same tracking and processing infrastructure supports multiple configuration functions including size adjustment, position manipulation, and orientation control, allowing one system to serve multiple purposes without requiring separate specialized components for each function.
