3D Video Server Interaction Control
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing 3D video services require separate development of play and control software for each platform and device, and user interactions must be programmed for various scenarios, limiting flexibility and compatibility across different environments.
Innovation Solution
A server-based system that allows users to edit and generate user interactions for 3D video content across various platforms, using a server with communication, memory, and processing capabilities to transmit and play 3D video content, along with a device equipped with motion recognition modules to recognize and respond to user interactions.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If separate development of play and control software is performed for each platform and device, then the 3D video service can be provided for specific devices, but the compatibility and flexibility across different environments deteriorate
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements a universal control system where a single server application can manage and control 3D video playback across multiple platforms (smart TVs, set-top boxes, personal computers, mobile devices) and various file formats. The server provides a unified interface that adapts to different client devices without requiring separate control software for each platform, thus achieving multi-functionality and broad compatibility.
2Ease of operation
If user interactions are programmed for various scenarios, then the 3D video can respond to user actions, but the software complexity and development effort increase
Solution Approach 1:
The patent introduces a server as an intermediary between the 3D video content and the control system. The server handles all interaction logic, scenario programming, and response generation centrally, while clients simply send interaction requests and receive processed results. This mediator approach simplifies client software complexity while maintaining rich interactive capabilities.
Solution Approach 2:
The system enables self-service through automated interaction handling where the server automatically processes user interactions, determines appropriate responses based on programmed scenarios, and executes corresponding actions without requiring manual intervention or complex client-side logic. The server autonomously manages the interaction workflow.
3Manufacturing precision
If additional software installation is required for each device, then the 3D video playback can be optimized for specific platforms, but the ease of use and accessibility across various devices deteriorate
Solution Approach 1:
The patent extracts the complex control and interaction management functionality from individual client devices and relocates it to a centralized server. Clients only need basic playback capabilities and simple interaction request/sending functions, eliminating the need for heavy platform-specific control software installations while maintaining optimized performance through server-side processing.

AI summary
Provided are a server and method for providing three-dimensional (3D) video content and a device for playing video content. A 3D video content service server includes a server communication module, a server memory, and a server processor. When user interaction editing information for 3D video content is input, the server processor edits a user interaction for the 3D video content according to the user interaction editing information and generates and stores metadata for the edited user interaction.
