Portable AR Content Delivery System
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Creating and delivering augmented reality (AR) content is complex and expensive, requiring sophisticated knowledge and resources, especially when updating 3D AR content, as it necessitates recompiling and redeploying applications.
Innovation Solution
A system and method for transforming AR source content into portable, native formats for rendering across various devices without recompiling the application, using a cloud content management system with a user interface, transformation, and delivery modules to package and deliver AR content based on geolocation and operating system, allowing dynamic updating without recompiling the application.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Productivity
If AR content is delivered through compiled applications, then AR content can be displayed on devices, but the application must be recompiled and redeployed whenever 3D content needs to be updated
Solution Approach 1:
The system separates AR content from the application codebase, allowing content to be delivered independently as portable packages that can be updated without recompiling the application. The content is segmented into discrete units that can be dynamically delivered to devices.
Solution Approach 2:
A content delivery system acts as an intermediary between content creators and devices, providing a mechanism to deliver updated AR content without requiring application recompilation. This intermediary layer enables content updates to propagate to devices independently of the application code.
2Ease of manufacture
If users create AR content from scratch using conventional methods, then AR content can be produced, but it requires sophisticated knowledge and considerable resources
Solution Approach 1:
The system provides tools and templates that enable users to create AR content independently without requiring sophisticated technical knowledge. Users can upload their own content and the system automatically handles the complex transformation and delivery processes.
Solution Approach 2:
The platform supports multiple content formats and device types through a single unified system, allowing users to create content that works across different operating systems and devices without needing separate creation processes for each platform.
3Adaptability or versatility
If AR content is transformed to multiple native formats for different operating systems, then compatibility across devices is improved, but the transformation and packaging process becomes more complex
Solution Approach 1:
The system automatically adjusts content parameters and formats based on the target device's operating system. Content is transformed into different native formats by modifying parameters such as file structure, data types, and packaging methods to match the requirements of different platforms.
Solution Approach 2:
The content transformation and packaging into multiple formats is performed in advance before delivery to devices. The system pre-processes content to ensure it is ready in the correct formats for various operating systems, eliminating the need for real-time transformation at the device level.
