AR Emoji Generation via Gesture Stroke Input
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
As the number of AR emojis indicating gestures increases, the time required to select a desired emoji and memory consumption also increase, making it inefficient for users to express emotions effectively.
Innovation Solution
An electronic device generates an AR emoji based on a stroke input, allowing users to create personalized emojis using a digital pen or stylus, reducing selection time and improving memory efficiency by sharing information with an external server.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If the number of AR emojis indicating gestures is increased to express more emotions, then the ability to express emotions is improved, but the time needed to select an AR emoji and memory consumption increase
Solution Approach 1:
The system enables users to create their own AR emojis by drawing gestures on the display screen. Instead of selecting from a pre-defined list of emojis, the system automatically generates the appropriate AR emoji based on the user's drawn gesture, making the system serve itself by converting user input directly into the desired emoji output without requiring manual selection from extensive lists
Solution Approach 2:
The patent replaces the mechanical interaction of scrolling through and selecting from a list of emojis with a gesture-based drawing system. Users draw gestures on the touchscreen, and the system automatically interprets and generates the corresponding AR emoji, substituting the manual selection process with an automated gesture recognition and generation system
2Adaptability or versatility
If the number of AR emojis indicating gestures is increased to express more emotions, then the ability to express emotions is improved, but memory consumption increases
Solution Approach 1:
The system generates AR emojis dynamically based on user-drawn gestures rather than storing extensive libraries of pre-defined emojis. The system serves itself by creating emojis on-demand from basic gesture patterns, eliminating the need to maintain large memory allocations for diverse emoji assets
Solution Approach 2:
The system changes the fundamental parameter of emoji creation from selecting static pre-defined images to dynamically generating emojis based on gesture parameters. By interpreting the characteristics of drawn gestures (such as shape, direction, and complexity), the system generates appropriate AR emojis, transforming the approach from storing multiple emoji variants to generating them from parametric gesture data
