Solution Overview

Problem

Conventional public seminars broadcast generic information to all attendees, lacking personalization, and recorded presentations do not accommodate user-specific private data, limiting the relevance and engagement of re-broadcasted content.

Innovation Solution

A computer-implemented method and system that retrieves user-specific private information based on trigger events during a recorded seminar, generating and sending a re-cast segment with personalized content to user devices, synchronizing the display of private information with the corresponding segments of the recorded presentation.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Ease of operation

If generic non-private information is displayed to all customers viewing the seminar, then the system maintains simplicity and ease of operation, but the relevance and engagement of the content deteriorates for individual users

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveease of operationVSAvoidpersonalization capability
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSAdaptability or versatility

Solution Approach 1:

The recorded presentation is divided into multiple segments with trigger events identified at specific points. Each segment can be independently processed to insert relevant private information, allowing personalized content delivery without requiring complete re-recording of the entire presentation.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

Trigger events are pre-identified and marked during the recording phase at points where private information should be displayed. This preliminary action enables the system to automatically retrieve and insert relevant private information during re-broadcast without real-time manual intervention.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

2Productivity

If the recorded presentation is re-broadcast with generic information, then the system maintains low complexity and fast processing, but the information relevance and user engagement deteriorates

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveprocessing speedVSAvoidloss of personalization
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSLoss of information

Solution Approach 1:

The system creates a re-cast version of the recorded presentation that copies the original structure and content, then selectively inserts private information at trigger event points. This copying approach maintains the original presentation integrity while adding personalized elements efficiently.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #26Copying

Solution Approach 2:

A computing system acts as an intermediary between the recorded presentation and the user device, automatically retrieving private information based on trigger events and integrating it into the re-broadcast content, thereby maintaining both processing efficiency and personalization.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

3Adaptability or versatility

If private information is integrated into re-cast segments, then user engagement and relevance improve, but the system complexity and processing requirements increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvepersonalization capabilityVSAvoidsystem complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The system dynamically generates re-cast segments by combining static recorded presentation content with dynamic private information retrieval and integration. This dynamic approach allows personalized content delivery without requiring complete system reconfiguration for each user.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

Solution Approach 2:

The system changes the information parameter of the presentation by inserting private information at specific trigger points while maintaining the original presentation structure. This parameter change approach enables personalization without fundamentally altering the system architecture.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

4Loss of information

If trigger events are used to retrieve private information at specific segments, then the relevance of information improves, but the difficulty of detecting and measuring trigger events increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveloss of personalizationVSAvoidtrigger event detection
Core Design Contradiction:
Loss of informationVSDifficulty of detecting and measuring

Solution Approach 1:

Trigger events are pre-identified and marked during the recording phase at points where private information should be displayed. This preliminary action enables the system to automatically retrieve and insert relevant private information during re-broadcast without real-time manual intervention.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

AI summary

Computer-implemented techniques for viewing a recorded presentation are described. The techniques include receiving by one or more computers a request from a user to view a recorded presentation, retrieving, by one or more computing systems, a segment of the recorded presentation that is comprised of plural segments and information specifying times of occurrences of trigger events associated with corresponding segments in the recorded presentation, retrieving by the one or more computers private information of the user relevant to a first segment of the recorded presentation based on a first trigger event, generating, by the one or more computing systems, a re-cast first segment of the recorded presentation, with the re-cast first segment including the private information of the user, and sending by the one or more computing systems, the re-cast segment to a computing device associated with the user.
