Solution Overview

Problem

Images have a limited displaying dimension, which restricts their ability to convey rich information effectively, despite being a cost-effective and low-bandwidth medium for information dissemination.

Innovation Solution

An image processing method and apparatus that utilizes AI and AR technologies to automatically add dynamic effects to images by detecting feature objects, segmenting them, and applying AR effects, allowing for enhanced visual richness without excessive manual intervention.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Loss of information

If dynamic effects are manually added to images, then the displaying dimension and richness of images is improved, but the operation complexity and time consumption increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveinformation richnessVSAvoidmanual operation complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Loss of informationVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The system automatically detects feature objects in images, selects appropriate dynamic effects based on preset strategies, and applies rendering without requiring manual user intervention. The device performs self-service by autonomously completing the entire workflow from detection to effect application, thereby improving information richness while eliminating manual operation complexity

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

Solution Approach 2:

Preset strategies for loading dynamic effects are established in advance, containing pre-configured rules for selecting and applying effects to different feature objects. This preliminary preparation enables the system to quickly and automatically apply appropriate dynamic effects without requiring manual decision-making during operation, thus improving both information richness and operational efficiency

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

2Loss of information

If dynamic effects are added to all feature objects, then the visual richness is improved, but the processing time and computational resources increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvevisual richnessVSAvoidprocessing time
Core Design Contradiction:
Loss of informationVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The system applies different treatments to different feature objects based on preset strategies. Not all feature objects receive dynamic effects - only those that match specific criteria defined in the preset strategies. This localized application of dynamic effects improves visual richness where needed while avoiding unnecessary processing of all objects, thereby reducing overall processing time

Inventive Principle:
Principle #3Local quality

Solution Approach 2:

The system selectively applies dynamic effects to a subset of feature objects rather than all objects in the image. By using preset strategies to determine which objects should receive effects, the system achieves sufficient visual richness through partial action, avoiding the time consumption associated with processing every single feature object

Inventive Principle:
Principle #16Partial or excessive action

3Manufacturing precision

If feature objects are segmented to apply AR effects, then the precision of effect application is improved, but the device complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveeffect application precisionVSAvoidprocessing complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Manufacturing precisionVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The system segments feature objects in the image to identify distinct regions that require different dynamic effects. By dividing the image into meaningful segments corresponding to different feature objects, the system achieves precise application of AR effects to specific areas. The segmentation is performed automatically using detection algorithms, and the complexity is managed through automated workflows that handle the segmentation and effect application process

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation
