Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Ease of operation

If sensor data is collected and processed in real-time to generate information about physical or virtual space changes, then user interaction enhancement is achieved, but processing and storage demands increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveuser interaction enhancementVSAvoidprocessing and storage demands
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent extracts only the most relevant features from sensor data using machine learning models, rather than processing all raw sensor data. The system identifies and extracts key motion parameters and user actions, discarding redundant information, thereby reducing processing and storage demands while maintaining user interaction enhancement

Inventive Principle:
Principle #2Taking out (Extraction)

Solution Approach 2:

The system transforms raw sensor data into meaningful parameters through machine learning processing. By changing the representation of data from raw sensor readings to extracted motion features and predicted user actions, the system reduces data complexity while preserving essential interaction information

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

2Measurement precision

If machine learning models process all sensor data to predict user actions, then prediction accuracy improves, but processing time increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveprediction accuracyVSAvoidprocessing time
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The patent segments the data processing pipeline into distinct stages: raw sensor data collection, feature extraction using machine learning models, and action prediction. By dividing the processing into segments, the system can apply complex ML models only to extracted features rather than all raw data, reducing overall processing time while maintaining prediction accuracy

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The system applies machine learning processing selectively to extract only the most relevant features needed for accurate prediction, rather than processing all possible sensor data. This partial processing approach maintains prediction accuracy while significantly reducing computation time and resource requirements

Inventive Principle:
Principle #16Partial or excessive action

3Reliability

If confidence thresholds are applied to filter predicted events, then feedback reliability improves, but event detection coverage decreases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvefeedback reliabilityVSAvoidevent detection coverage
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSLoss of information

Solution Approach 1:

The system dynamically adjusts the confidence threshold parameter based on the specific application context and event type. By changing this parameter, the system can optimize the balance between feedback reliability and event detection coverage for different scenarios, allowing high reliability for critical events while maintaining broader detection coverage for less critical events

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

AI summary

Systems and methods for predictively responding to real-time sensor data from an computer-augmented environment are provided. A system may receive sensor data from the computer-augmented environment. The system may obtain a feature model, a prediction model, and a filter criteria. The system may derive, based on the feature model and the sensor data, a first event. The system may determine the first event is associated with an authorized event identifier in the filter criteria. The system may forecast, based on the authorized event identifier and the prediction model that a second event occurs after the first event. The system may transmit an action message to the computer-augmented environment, the action message indicative of the second event. Updates to the feature model, the prediction model, and/or the filter criteria may occur in batch using machine learning and statistical analytics while the real-time platform predictively responds to the sensor data.
