Solution Overview

Problem

Current online reading applications require users to exit the reading interface to view book reviews, increasing operational complexity and affecting user experience.

Innovation Solution

A method to acquire and display book review information within the reading interface based on reading progress, determining the reading mode, and matching review information to the user's reading position, allowing for seamless integration of reviews without leaving the reading page.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Loss of information

If users exit the reading interface to view book reviews, then they can access review information, but the operational complexity increases and user experience deteriorates

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveaccess to review informationVSAvoidoperational complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Loss of informationVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The patent merges the review information display function with the reading interface by integrating review modules directly into the reading page. This allows users to access review information without exiting the reading interface, combining two previously separate functions (reading and reviewing) into a unified interface, thereby reducing operational complexity while maintaining information accessibility

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

Solution Approach 2:

The patent utilizes spatial dimension by displaying review information in a side panel or overlay region within the reading interface rather than requiring navigation to a separate page. This dimensional arrangement allows both reading content and review information to coexist in the same viewing space, eliminating the need to exit the reading interface

Inventive Principle:
Principle #17Another dimension (Dimensionality change)

2Ease of operation

If review information is displayed within the reading interface, then user experience improves and operational complexity reduces, but the display area for reading content may be reduced

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveease of viewing reviewsVSAvoidreading content display area
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSArea of stationary object

Solution Approach 1:

The patent implements dynamic display areas where the reading content region and review information region can adjust their sizes based on user interaction, device screen size, and reading progress. The review module can be collapsed, expanded, or repositioned dynamically, allowing the reading area to maximize space when reviews are not needed while accommodating review information when required

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

Solution Approach 2:

The patent segments the display interface into distinct functional regions (reading content area and review information area) that can be independently controlled. This segmentation allows users to adjust the visibility and size of each region separately, ensuring that the reading content display area is not permanently reduced while still providing access to review information when needed

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

3Loss of information

If review information is matched based on reading progress and reading mode, then relevance of reviews improves, but the complexity of determining and matching reviews increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improverelevance of review informationVSAvoidcomplexity of review matching system
Core Design Contradiction:
Loss of informationVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies preliminary action by pre-categorizing and tagging review information with metadata such as reading progress markers, reading mode indicators, and topic classifications before display. This preprocessing of review data allows for efficient matching with current reading state without requiring complex real-time analysis, reducing the computational complexity while maintaining high relevance

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The patent implements feedback mechanisms where the system continuously monitors reading progress and reading mode, then automatically selects and displays review information that matches the current state. This closed-loop feedback system simplifies the matching process by using straightforward comparison logic between current reading state and pre-tagged review metadata, rather than requiring complex algorithms

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback
