Solution Overview

Problem

Existing multimedia content playback systems lack integration of augmented reality (AR) technology to enhance user interaction and provide three-dimensional images, failing to meet diverse user needs and improve user experience.

Innovation Solution

An image processing method that identifies patterns in multimedia content to obtain virtual information, fusing it with real-time images to create three-dimensional images, enabling enhanced user interaction and immersion.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If traditional multimedia playback is used, then the system is simple and easy to operate, but user interaction and immersion are limited

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveuser interaction capabilityVSAvoidsystem complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent merges traditional multimedia playback with augmented reality technology by integrating virtual information overlay capabilities into the existing playback system. The identification module detects patterns in multimedia content, and the virtual information module overlays relevant AR content onto the display, combining two functional systems into a unified user experience without requiring separate devices

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

Solution Approach 2:

The electronic device is enhanced to perform multiple functions: traditional multimedia playback, pattern identification, virtual information retrieval, and augmented reality display. This multi-functional approach allows a single device to serve both conventional media consumption and interactive AR experiences, improving adaptability without requiring specialized equipment

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)

2Adaptability or versatility

If AR technology is integrated into multimedia playback, then user interaction and immersion are enhanced, but the system complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveuser interaction capabilityVSAvoidsystem complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The AR functionality is segmented into distinct modular components: an identification module for pattern detection, a virtual information module for content retrieval and processing, and a display module for rendering. This segmentation allows each component to be developed, optimized, and managed independently, reducing overall system complexity while maintaining enhanced interaction capabilities

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

3Loss of information

If identification patterns are added to multimedia images, then virtual information can be retrieved, but the image quality and transparency may be affected

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvevirtual information retrievalVSAvoidimage transparency
Core Design Contradiction:
Loss of informationVSIllumination intensity

Solution Approach 1:

The identification patterns are placed in specific local regions of the multimedia image where they do not interfere with the main content. The patterns are positioned in corners or edges of the display area, allowing the central and most important visual content to maintain full transparency and quality while still enabling virtual information retrieval through the embedded patterns

Inventive Principle:
Principle #3Local quality
