Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If 3D video content is encoded into multiple IP streams for different device formats, then adaptability to various devices is improved, but system complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments the 3D video content into multiple IP streams, each encoded for specific device formats (e.g., mobile phones, tablets, televisions). This segmentation allows the system to deliver appropriately formatted content to different devices without requiring complex real-time adaptation, thus improving adaptability while managing system complexity through pre-encoded streams.
Solution Approach 2:
The system performs preliminary encoding of 3D video content into multiple device-specific IP streams before distribution. By preparing multiple formatted versions in advance, the system eliminates the need for complex real-time format conversion at the receiving end, thereby improving device adaptability while keeping the overall system architecture manageable.
2Ease of operation
If 3D video content is adjusted based on user requests for different locations and depths, then user experience is improved, but processing time increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements dynamic adjustment of 3D video content based on user requests. The system can reposition content to different locations on the display and adjust depth within the 3D environment in real-time according to user preferences. This dynamic capability enhances user experience by allowing flexible content positioning while maintaining efficient processing through optimized rendering techniques.
Solution Approach 2:
The system adjusts parameters of the 3D video content such as position coordinates and depth values based on user requests. By modifying these parameters dynamically, the system achieves flexible content repositioning and depth adjustment to improve user experience while minimizing processing overhead through efficient parameter-based rendering.
3Adaptability or versatility
If 3D video content is streamed to different physical devices at different locations, then accessibility is improved, but network bandwidth requirements increase
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies local quality by delivering different versions of the 3D video content optimized for specific device characteristics and viewing environments. Each IP stream is tailored to the local requirements of the target device (e.g., screen resolution, processing capabilities, viewing distance), allowing efficient bandwidth utilization while maintaining high accessibility across diverse devices.
Data Source
AI summary
Method, systems, and apparatuses are described that transmit and/or receive video content. A request associated with an output device may be received. Based on the request and a mode of operation of the output device, a first data stream of a plurality of data streams is determined. Each of the plurality of data streams may be associated with a different adjusted version of video content that may be multidimensional and/or multi-perspective video content. Based on the first data stream, a first adjusted version of the video content may be determined. The output device may output the first adjusted version.
