Anonymous Remote Device Capture With No Local Persistence
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing content delivery systems fail to provide secure, anonymous, and efficient capture and transmission of content between users, particularly in scenarios where revealing identities or storing content can be dangerous or detrimental, and often involve latency and high costs.
Innovation Solution
A system and method for anonymous remote device content capture and secure transmission, where content is captured by a second device and directly routed to a first device without persisting on the second device, using encryption and asynchronous communication to ensure anonymity and efficiency.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If content is stored on the second device for later delivery, then content availability is improved, but device storage requirements and security risks increase
Solution Approach 1:
The patent extracts the content storage function from the second device by implementing direct capture and immediate transmission. The second device captures content and routes it directly to the first device without persisting the content locally, thereby eliminating storage security risks while maintaining content availability through the capture-to-delivery pipeline.
2Loss of time
If real-time content delivery is implemented, then latency is reduced, but network bandwidth requirements and infrastructure complexity increase
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements self-service by enabling the second device to autonomously capture content and route it directly to the first device without requiring complex server infrastructure. The devices themselves perform the capture and transmission functions, reducing infrastructure complexity while maintaining low latency through direct device-to-device communication.
3Loss of information
If anonymous content transmission is implemented, then user privacy is improved, but system trust and verification mechanisms become more complex
Solution Approach 1:
The patent introduces a verification mechanism that acts as an intermediary between the content capture and transmission processes. This mechanism verifies content integrity and authentication without requiring the first and second devices to know each other's identities, thereby maintaining anonymity while providing necessary verification through a neutral intermediary layer.
4Quantity of substance
If direct device-to-device transmission is used, then storage costs are reduced, but network security requirements increase
Solution Approach 1:
The patent extracts the content from the second device's storage system by implementing immediate transmission upon capture. Content is not persisted on the second device but is directly routed to the first device, eliminating storage requirements and associated security risks while maintaining network security through encrypted direct transmission.

AI summary
Systems and methods for securely scheduling a remote content capture, and subsequently capturing, securing the captured content and securely transmitting the secured content in an atomic transaction from a second device to a first device. The systems and methods mediate and facilitate contracting for the same. Capture is facilitated without persistence of the captured content on the second device, and the captured content is secured and securely routed to the first device.
