Workspace Remediation Visualization System
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Consumers seeking remediation for basements, crawl spaces, or partially subterranean chambers face challenges in identifying specific remedial needs and corresponding products/services due to a lack of clear information on required solutions for their environments.
Innovation Solution
A computer system with a user interface and processor that displays a depiction of a workspace, allowing users to select and visualize applications for remediation, store selected applications, and generate a purchase order, including pricing, to facilitate the identification and procurement of necessary products and services.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Loss of information
If traditional marketing systems display images of individual products and completed installations, then consumers can see product appearances, but consumers cannot identify specific remedial needs and corresponding products/services for their workspaces
Solution Approach 1:
The patent introduces an interactive computer system with augmented reality capabilities as an intermediary between consumers and remediation products. This system provides personalized guidance by analyzing workspace conditions and recommending specific products, thereby resolving the information gap without overwhelming consumers with complex product catalogs
Solution Approach 2:
The system enables consumers to independently assess their own workspace conditions using augmented reality overlays and receive automated product recommendations. This self-service approach allows consumers to identify their specific remedial needs and select appropriate products without requiring expert intervention, thus improving ease of operation while reducing information loss
2Loss of information
If consumers are provided with detailed information about remediation requirements and products, then they can identify appropriate solutions, but the complexity of the system increases
Solution Approach 1:
The system segments the remediation process into distinct modules: workspace assessment, condition analysis, product recommendation, and purchasing. By dividing the complex information system into manageable segments, consumers can progress through each stage at their own pace without being overwhelmed by the entire system's complexity
Solution Approach 2:
The system dynamically adapts the information presented to consumers based on their specific workspace conditions and preferences. Rather than presenting all possible information statically, the system adjusts the level and type of information displayed, making the system feel simpler while still providing comprehensive remediation guidance
3Illumination intensity
If traditional marketing displays show completed installations, then consumers can visualize final results, but consumers cannot understand the specific applications needed for their own workspaces
Solution Approach 1:
The system creates virtual copies of the consumer's workspace using augmented reality technology. These digital twins allow consumers to visualize how specific remediation products will appear and function in their actual workspace, providing both visual clarity and specific application information simultaneously
Solution Approach 2:
The augmented reality system uses color-coded overlays and visual indicators to highlight different workspace conditions and corresponding product applications. This visual differentiation maintains illumination intensity and clarity while encoding specific application information through color-coding, allowing consumers to understand both the visual result and the specific remediation needed

AI summary
A system for marketing applications having a computer processor, a display and a user interface for receiving instructions from a user. The user interface is operably connected to the computer processor. The computer processor is programmed to display an application menu on the display for selection of an application from the application menu by the user and further programmed to maintain a list of user-selected applications and further programmed to display a depiction of a predetermined environment on the display. The depiction includes images of applications included in the list of user-selected applications shown applied in the predetermined environment. The computer processor is further programmed to update the depiction of the predetermined environment by adding an image of the application, as applied in the predetermined environment to the depiction of the predetermined environment on the display, in response to a selection of the application by the user.
