Engineering Contradiction Tools
Improving and Worsening Features : Productivity and Extent of Automation
Inventive Principle Achieved from Contradiction Matrix : 5th, 12th, 35th, and 26th
Principle 5th suggests merging more functions into an object such as multi functions
watch.
Principle 26th suggests copying and replacing an object such as copy the function of
wallet and replace it with future watch .

Trimming
1st stage : Old traditional watch such as sand glass and rarely used.
2nd stage : Current common watch
3rd stage: Multi functions watch and believe can attract a lot people
4th stage : Further improvement and new idea of watch

Potential Ideas
Multi functions merge into current watch such as time, health,
auto payment and smart phone functions.
Watch without watch band and replaced by flexible screen
which can act as band at the same time.
A watch that can keep identification card (similar to sim card
inside phone) and thus user do not need bring wallet.
