Solution Overview

Problem

Capturing the perfect digital image remains challenging due to the vast amount of digital content available and the need for efficient image-capturing techniques that adapt to user preferences.

Innovation Solution

A digital recording system and method that utilize adaptive image-capturing templates, where a camera module generates a video stream and a content analyzer sends trigger signals based on initial templates, which are adjusted by a template adjuster based on user selections, allowing for dynamic adjustment of target poses and operational settings.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Productivity

If automatic image capturing is used based on fixed templates, then the productivity of image capture is improved, but the adaptability to user preferences deteriorates

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveimage capture efficiencyVSAvoiduser preference adaptation
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSAdaptability or versatility

Solution Approach 1:

The image-capturing template is made dynamic through continuous adjustment based on user feedback. The template adjuster modifies target poses and parameters in real-time as the user accepts or rejects captured images, transforming a static automated system into an adaptive one that evolves with user preferences while maintaining high capture efficiency

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

Solution Approach 2:

A feedback loop is established where the content analyzer receives user selections (accept/reject decisions) and feeds this information back to the template adjuster. This feedback mechanism enables the system to learn from user preferences and automatically refine the image-capturing template, resolving the contradiction between automation and adaptability

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

2Adaptability or versatility

If the image-capturing template is adjusted based on user selections, then the adaptability to user preferences is improved, but the device complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveuser preference adaptationVSAvoidsystem complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The system is segmented into distinct functional modules: a content analyzer for processing video streams and detecting target poses, a template adjuster for modifying template parameters, and a user interface component for receiving selections. This modular architecture manages complexity by distributing functions across separate components while maintaining overall system adaptability

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

3Measurement precision

If a content analyzer generates trigger signals based on templates, then the measurement precision of target pose detection is improved, but the difficulty of detecting and measuring increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvetarget pose detection accuracyVSAvoidpose analysis complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSDifficulty of detecting and measuring

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs preliminary action by pre-defining target poses and parameters in the image-capturing template before actual image capture. The content analyzer compares real-time video content against these pre-established templates, simplifying the detection process while maintaining high precision through predetermined reference standards

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

AI summary

A digital recording device is configured to automatically capture digital images. In the digital recording device, a camera module operating in a live preview mode generates a video stream comprising digital images. A content analyzer generates a trigger signal based on an initial image-capturing template. The camera module captures and stores digital images responsive to receiving the trigger signal. A user interface component receives from a user one or more selections among the stored digital images, a template adjuster adjusts at least one target pose specified by the image-capturing template based on the one or more user selections, wherein the content analyzer generates the trigger signal based on the adjusted image-capturing template.
