Solution Overview

Problem

Current automated therapy compliance programs provide complex, data-centric feedback that is difficult for patients to understand, leading to suboptimal compliance with chronic condition therapies.

Innovation Solution

The development of computing systems and methods to generate video presentations using avatars that explain therapy compliance data, with insights displayed on a reporting dashboard, where the avatar points to relevant data and provides synchronized audio feedback, enhancing patient understanding and engagement.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Loss of information

If complex data presentations are used to provide comprehensive therapy compliance information, then the completeness of feedback information is improved, but the ease of understanding by patients deteriorates

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecompleteness of feedback informationVSAvoidease of understanding
Core Design Contradiction:
Loss of informationVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The patent segments complex compliance data into multiple distinct visual presentations (graphs, charts, icons) arranged on a dashboard. Each presentation focuses on a specific compliance metric (e.g., usage hours, mask fit, leaks), breaking down overwhelming information into manageable, easily digestible segments that patients can understand at a glance.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The system introduces an automated video generation system as an intermediary that translates complex compliance data into personalized video feedback with visual cues, animations, and simplified explanations. This intermediary layer converts raw data presentations into an engaging narrative format that maintains information completeness while dramatically improving patient comprehension.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

2Loss of information

If traditional text-based compliance reports are used, then the amount of information provided is sufficient, but patient engagement and comprehension deteriorate

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveinformation completenessVSAvoidpatient compliance
Core Design Contradiction:
Loss of informationVSProductivity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent replaces traditional static text-based reporting mechanisms with an automated video generation and delivery system. This substitution transforms compliance feedback from a passive text document into an active, engaging video presentation with visual elements, animations, and personalized narration, significantly improving patient engagement and comprehension while maintaining full information content.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #28Mechanics substitution (Replace mechanical system)

Solution Approach 2:

The system transitions from static text reports to dynamic video presentations that can adapt content based on patient-specific compliance patterns. The video format allows for animated visualizations, changing graphics, and personalized narration that responds to individual patient data, making the feedback more engaging and easier to comprehend while preserving all necessary compliance information.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

3Loss of information

If multiple compliance metrics are displayed together, then the comprehensiveness of feedback is improved, but the complexity of the presentation increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecomprehensiveness of feedbackVSAvoidpresentation complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Loss of informationVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The dashboard segments multiple compliance metrics into separate, visually distinct presentation areas. Each metric (usage hours, mask fit, leaks, respiratory events) has its own dedicated visual space with appropriate graphics and icons, allowing comprehensive coverage of all compliance aspects while maintaining visual organization and reducing overall presentation complexity.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

AI summary

Systems, apparatuses and methods provide technology for generating a video presentation, including determining a plurality of insights, each insight associated with a data presentation and, based on at least a portion of therapy compliance data for a patient, determining, for each insight, an insight location on a reporting dashboard and an avatar position for an avatar on the reporting dashboard, formulating a feedback message for each of the insights, and generating a video presentation based on the reporting dashboard, the video presentation including a display of the data presentations and a display of an animation sequence for the avatar, the animation sequence including, for each insight, a display of the avatar at the respective avatar position, the avatar pointing to the insight location for the insight, and a synchronized audio signal representing the feedback message for the insight.
