Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing systems have not fully implemented virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR) technology in marketing and purchase application processes, lacking intuitive navigation and powerful information dissemination capabilities.
Innovation Solution
A system and method for scheduling a timed interchange protocol via integrated augmented-reality (AR) presentations, utilizing computing systems with processors and memory devices to provide geolocation and positional data, overlay content, and user interactions for displaying AR presentations on mobile devices, enabling features like real estate property tours and mortgage scheduling.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Loss of information
If VR and AR technology are implemented in marketing and purchase application processes, then information dissemination capability is improved, but device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent uses overlay content that copies and displays information about accessible items (such as real estate properties) in the AR presentation. This allows comprehensive information dissemination without requiring complex specialized equipment, as the information is rendered as 2D overlay content on existing mobile device screens.
Solution Approach 2:
The system is designed to run on typical consumer mobile devices and home-based computers with sufficient computing power, making the VR/AR technology universally accessible without requiring specialized equipment. The same system can handle multiple functions including information display, navigation, and transaction scheduling.
2Ease of operation
If AR presentations are used for intuitive navigation and information dissemination, then ease of operation is improved, but loss of time in processing and delivering content increases
Solution Approach 1:
The system retrieves overlay content from memory or storage devices in advance and prepares it for display. Geolocation data is processed beforehand to identify accessible items proximal to the user's current location, so that when the AR presentation is initiated, the content is already ready for immediate display with minimal processing delay.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent replaces traditional mechanical navigation systems with AR-based visual overlay navigation. Instead of physical maps or manual direction-following, the system uses computer-generated overlay content that provides intuitive visual guidance, significantly improving ease of operation while reducing the time needed to process navigation information.
3Adaptability or versatility
If geolocation data and overlay content are retrieved and processed for each user device, then adaptability to user location is improved, but use of energy for data processing and transmission increases
Solution Approach 1:
The system retrieves overlay content specifically for accessible items that are proximal to the user's current location, rather than retrieving all possible content. This localized approach ensures that only relevant information is processed and transmitted, reducing energy consumption while maintaining high adaptability to the user's specific location and context.
Data Source
AI summary
A system for scheduling a timed interchange protocol via an integrated augmented-reality presentation, includes a computing system having a processor, a memory device and a non-transitory storage device. The one or more processor executes computer-readable instructions. A network connection connects multiple user devices to the computing system, each of the multiple user devices having a known or determinable current location. Upon execution of the computer-readable instructions, the computing system performs steps including, for each user device of the multiple user devices, receiving geolocation data identifying the current location of the user device, and retrieving, from the at least one of a memory device and a non-transitory storage device, overlay content for display on the user device. The overlay content includes information about an accessible item (AI) in a non-transient position proximal to a current location of the user device. The overlay content is sent for display on the user device.
