Solution Overview

Problem

Low participation rates in workplace wellness programs due to ineffective message delivery and lack of user engagement, as existing systems fail to tailor content based on individual user feedback and preferences.

Innovation Solution

A method and system that assess user engagement through human emotion and physiological data, direct and indirect inputs, to modify wellness program content in real-time, enhancing user interest and interaction by personalizing messages and adjusting program elements such as form and delivery modality.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Ease of operation

If wellness programs use generic message delivery methods, then implementation is simple, but user engagement and participation rates are low

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveease of message deliveryVSAvoiduser participation rate
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSProductivity

Solution Approach 1:

The system dynamically adjusts message delivery methods based on real-time user engagement metrics. The messaging engine monitors user interactions and automatically adapts the delivery modality (email, mobile push, web notification) and timing based on user preferences and engagement patterns, transforming static generic messaging into dynamic personalized communication that improves participation rates while maintaining operational simplicity through automation.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

Solution Approach 2:

The system incorporates feedback loops where user engagement data (opening rates, click-through rates, interaction time) is continuously collected and fed back to the messaging engine. This feedback mechanism enables the system to learn from user behavior patterns and refine message delivery strategies, thereby increasing user participation without requiring manual intervention or complex implementation changes.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

2Productivity

If wellness programs deliver standardized content to all users, then content creation is efficient, but relevance and impact of messages decrease

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecontent creation efficiencyVSAvoidmessage relevance
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The system applies local quality by customizing message content and delivery parameters for individual users or user segments based on their specific characteristics, preferences, and engagement patterns. The content generation engine creates personalized messages that address individual needs while maintaining overall program consistency, thereby improving message relevance without requiring complete redesign of content creation processes for each user.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #3Local quality

Solution Approach 2:

The system changes key parameters of message delivery including timing, channel selection, content customization, and frequency based on user-specific data. By dynamically adjusting these parameters rather than using fixed standardized content, the system maintains high content creation efficiency while significantly improving message relevance and user engagement through personalized delivery parameters.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

3Device complexity

If wellness programs do not personalize interactions, then system complexity is low, but user engagement and interest diminish

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvesystem complexityVSAvoiduser engagement level
Core Design Contradiction:
Device complexityVSProductivity

Solution Approach 1:

The system implements self-service personalization where the messaging engine automatically collects user data, analyzes engagement patterns, and generates personalized message strategies without requiring manual configuration or complex system setup. Users implicitly provide data through their interaction behavior, and the system self-adjusts to deliver optimized personalization, thereby maintaining relatively low system complexity while significantly improving user engagement levels.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service
