Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Measurement precision
If sensing measurement-related parameters are configured for accurate object sensing, then sensing accuracy is improved, but device complexity and power consumption increase
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments the sensing measurement configuration into multiple independent parameter elements, each associated with a specific measurement setup identifier. This allows the complex sensing configuration to be divided into manageable, modular components that can be independently configured and managed, reducing overall system complexity while maintaining measurement precision.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent implements dynamic parameter configuration where measurement parameters can be adjusted and reconfigured based on specific sensing requirements. The system allows flexible assignment of parameter elements to different measurement setup identifiers, enabling adaptive optimization of sensing accuracy without permanently increasing device complexity.
2Measurement precision
If multiple measurement parameter elements are configured for precise sensing, then sensing accuracy is improved, but power consumption increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent enables partial configuration of measurement parameters by associating specific parameter elements with measurement setup identifiers. The system can activate only the necessary subset of parameter elements for each sensing task rather than configuring all possible parameters, thereby achieving required sensing accuracy with reduced power consumption.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent allows dynamic changing of measurement parameters through the association of parameter elements with measurement setup identifiers. The system can optimize power consumption by adjusting parameter values and configurations based on specific sensing requirements, enabling precise sensing only when and where needed.
3Adaptability or versatility
If sensing parameters are configured for each measurement setup, then measurement flexibility is improved, but configuration overhead increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements a template-based configuration approach where measurement parameter elements can be defined once and then associated with multiple measurement setup identifiers. This copying mechanism allows the same parameter configuration to be reused across different measurement setups, maintaining measurement flexibility while significantly reducing configuration overhead and time.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent creates universal measurement parameter elements that can serve multiple measurement setups through the identifier association mechanism. A single parameter element definition can be universally applied across different measurement contexts, enabling the system to maintain high adaptability without proportionally increasing configuration complexity.
