Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of medical business systems, and in particular to an intelligent dynamic adaptation video service system. Background Technology

[0002] Intelligent dynamic adaptation video conferencing service systems are a type of medical business system. Currently, many medical business systems involve point-to-point or multi-person video conferencing scenarios, such as online consultations, multidisciplinary remote consultations, and online medical education. The video conferencing capabilities required in these scenarios present significant technical challenges for business vendors, and developing and maintaining video conferencing services from scratch offers no advantage in terms of investment and return. Therefore, business vendors typically integrate mature third-party products from the market. With the continuous development of technology, the demands on medical business systems are also increasing.

[0003] Existing medical business systems have certain drawbacks. Currently, there are many video conferencing service providers, with differences in core performance parameters, network environment compatibility, and terminal compatibility. Furthermore, there are significant differences in billing models and unit prices. For business providers, finding a suitable third-party video conferencing service for different projects is quite difficult. 1. Clients specify their requirements for video conferencing services, such as private network or internet, maximum number of simultaneous meetings, maximum number of participants per meeting room, and billing methods such as per-traffic or one-time payment.

[0004] 2. Manufacturers' marketing and technical personnel will inquire about suitable video conferencing service products according to customer requirements, and generally provide 2-3 alternatives;

[0005] 3. Confirm the third-party product to be used with the client;

[0006] 4. The manufacturer conducts secondary development to connect with the finalized third-party video service;

[0007] 5. Business system deployment: Deploying or renting third-party video conferencing services to complete business system delivery. The above process has the following disadvantages:

[0008] 1. The development cycle for video conferencing integration is long, resulting in implementation costs for business vendors in terms of manpower and time;

[0009] 2. Only one video conferencing service is supported; if the customer encounters video conferencing problems during use, there are no alternative solutions.

[0010] 3. Initially, to accommodate poorly configured networks and low-spec terminals, better video conferencing services are typically chosen, which are naturally more expensive. However, in most cases, good networks and terminals are available, resulting in high video conferencing service costs for customers throughout the entire usage process. To meet the needs of extreme situations, the average cost of use increases, which has a certain adverse impact on the actual usage process. Therefore, we propose an intelligent dynamic adaptation video conferencing service system. Summary of the Invention

[0022] (III) Beneficial Effects

[0023] Compared with existing technologies, this invention provides an intelligent dynamic adaptation video service system with the following beneficial effects: In this intelligent dynamic adaptation video service system, the business system creates a video conference and uploads video service function requirements. It matches these requirements with a registered video service library to form a set of video services that meet the requirements. Simultaneously, the business system uploads terminal parameters, collects and reports the hardware information of participating terminals, comprehensively analyzes all terminal parameters to obtain optimal and minimum configuration parameters, finds a set of video services that match the optimal and minimum configuration parameters, and returns all video service parameters to the business system. The business system then dynamically rotates a specific video service to perform the video function according to the scenario requirements. The business system notifies the video service of completion. This intelligent dynamic matching technology is equivalent to building an independent matching service between the business system and third-party video services.

[0024] 1. Low integration cost

[0025] This technology further abstracts the capabilities of all the third-party video services used, forming a unified standard interface. Once the business system is connected, it can use all available third-party video services as needed.

[0026] 2. High fault tolerance

[0027] If video problems occur when customers use the video conferencing service of the business system, such as stuttering, blurring, or delay, they can manually and seamlessly switch to other video conferencing services, making the video conferencing function of the business highly fault-tolerant.

[0028] 3. Intelligent dynamic adaptation

[0029] Since the customer's terminal environment is always in a relatively changing environment, such as routing environment, network bandwidth, CPU hardware, graphics card hardware, etc., all of which will affect the video conferencing effect, the system automatically obtains the terminal network and hardware parameters, calculates core indicators such as upload / download rate and packet loss rate in real time, and dynamically adapts the optimal video conferencing service for each meeting (point-to-point, multi-person, etc.) in the current environment to ensure the video conferencing effect during use.

[0030] 4. Low average cost of use

[0031] When the terminal is in good condition, the most cost-effective video service is prioritized under the same effect to reduce the average cost of use. The longer the usage time, the lower the total cost. The entire intelligent dynamic adaptation video service system has a simple structure, is easy to operate, and has better performance than traditional methods. Attached Figure Description
