Augmented Reality Graphic Object Synchronization in Broadcast Metadata
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current augmented reality services in media content transmission lack dynamic and situational interaction, failing to effectively enhance viewer engagement by not incorporating emotion expressions, motion, and real-time event representation in broadcast or moving picture content.
Innovation Solution
A method and apparatus for providing media content transmission and reception using graphic objects that analyze metadata to synchronize and display relevant graphic content based on events or scenarios, allowing for dynamic behavior and phenomenon representation during media playback, including user-inputted graphic objects and real-time metadata processing.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If augmented reality services are provided through traditional broadcast methods, then service coverage is wide, but interactivity and user engagement are limited
Solution Approach 1:
The system implements feedback by detecting user selections through remote control input and dynamically adjusting the augmented reality content display. The metadata processing unit receives user input signals and uses them to control which graphic objects are displayed and how they interact with the broadcast content, creating a closed-loop interactive system.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent introduces metadata as an intermediary layer between the broadcast content and the augmented reality graphic objects. This metadata contains event information that mediates the interaction between traditional broadcast signals and interactive AR elements, enabling seamless integration without disrupting the existing broadcast infrastructure.
2Adaptability or versatility
If graphic objects are displayed for every event in media content, then viewer engagement is enhanced, but system complexity and processing requirements increase
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs preliminary action by pre-processing the broadcast content to extract and structure event metadata before the actual playback. The metadata is organized in advance with event timing, type, and associated graphic object information, so that during playback, the system only needs to retrieve and display pre-prepared elements rather than processing everything in real-time.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent segments the augmented reality content into discrete graphic objects, each associated with specific event metadata. This segmentation allows the system to process and display only relevant graphic objects for current events rather than managing all AR elements simultaneously, reducing processing complexity through modular organization.
3Measurement precision
If metadata is processed in real-time to synchronize graphic objects with events, then event representation accuracy is improved, but processing time and computational resources increase
Solution Approach 1:
The system achieves real-time synchronization efficiency through preliminary action by pre-analyzing broadcast content to create structured metadata with precise event timing information before playback. This advance preparation includes marking event boundaries, timestamps, and associated graphic object identifiers, enabling rapid retrieval and accurate synchronization during actual content delivery without heavy real-time processing.

AI summary
Disclosed is a media content reception method for providing augmenting media contents using graphic objects, including: receiving metadata including information representing each event of any one of broadcast contents or moving picture contents, and any one of the broadcast contents or the moving picture contents and graphic object related information associated with events, the events including at least one of a specific scene, a specific situation, and a specific phenomenon of any one of the broadcast contents or the moving picture contents; analyzing the received metadata; designating the graphic objects to correspond to each event within any one of the broadcast contents or the moving picture contents based on the analyzed metadata; and displaying the designated graphic objects to meet each event at the time of playing any one of the broadcast contents or the moving picture contents.
