Solution Overview

Problem

Demonstrations often fail to resonate with target audiences due to a mismatch between expected and actual audience profiles, leading to reduced attention and engagement.

Innovation Solution

A data processing system that determines context data about the target audience, classifies them into predefined types, and generates customization data to tailor the demonstration, using multivariate profiles derived from various data sources and machine learning techniques to enhance relevance and interaction.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Ease of manufacture

If demonstrations are built for a primary audience, then the demonstration can be simplified and standardized, but it fails to resonate with different target audiences due to audience mismatch

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedemonstration standardizationVSAvoidaudience relevance
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of manufactureVSAdaptability or versatility

Solution Approach 1:

The demonstration system dynamically adapts its content and presentation based on real-time audience classification. The system transitions from static, standardized demonstrations to dynamic, audience-specific demonstrations by automatically detecting audience characteristics and adjusting the demonstration accordingly, resolving the contradiction between standardization and adaptability

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

Solution Approach 2:

The system changes multiple parameters of the demonstration simultaneously, including content selection, presentation style, depth of technical details, and interaction level, based on audience classification. This allows the same demonstration framework to serve multiple audience types effectively, maintaining ease of manufacture while achieving audience relevance

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

2Productivity

If customization data is generated for each target audience, then audience engagement improves, but system complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveaudience engagementVSAvoidcustomization system complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs preliminary audience classification and customization data generation before the actual demonstration. By pre-processing and pre-customizing demonstration content based on audience profiles, the system reduces real-time complexity while maintaining high engagement, as the heavy lifting of customization occurs in advance

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The system creates customized copies of demonstration content for different audience types rather than building entirely separate demonstration systems. This allows the core demonstration logic to remain simple while generating audience-specific variations through selective copying and modification of base templates

Inventive Principle:
Principle #26Copying

AI summary

Context data pertaining to a target audience to which a product is to be demonstrated can be determined. The target audience can be classified based on the context data. Classifying the target audience can include selecting an audience type out of a predefined plurality of audience types. Customization data can be generated based on the selected audience type. The customization data can be configured to customize demonstration of the product to the target audience.
