Chapter Creation Device Using Live Data Input
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing methods for creating chapter headers for digital content, such as screen images and music, require complex character input operations, especially when captions are absent or do not adequately represent scene changes like expressions or actions.
Innovation Solution
A chapter creating device and method that uses live data input from users, including character strings and date/time information, to automatically generate chapter data with headers and time information, allowing users to select and associate broadcasting station IDs for content segmentation without manual character input.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Manufacturing precision
If the user directly inputs the header for chapter data, then the chapter header accurately reflects the content outline, but the operation becomes complicated and time-consuming
Solution Approach 1:
The system automatically generates chapter headers by extracting and processing live data that users input during content playback. The chapter creating unit autonomously creates header information based on user comments and live data, eliminating the need for manual header input while maintaining accuracy.
Solution Approach 2:
Users provide live data and comments during the playback process, which are stored and later utilized for automatic chapter header generation. This preliminary data collection during playback prepares the information needed for automated chapter creation without requiring subsequent manual intervention.
2Ease of operation
If captions are used as chapter headers, then the operation is simplified, but the technique is not applicable to content without captions or captions fail to represent non-verbal scene changes
Solution Approach 1:
The system processes various types of live data including user comments, descriptions, and reactions to different content elements (expressions, actions, dialogues). This multi-functional approach allows chapter headers to be created for diverse content types beyond just captioned material, making the system universally applicable to different content formats.
Solution Approach 2:
The system introduces live data as an intermediary between the content and chapter header creation. Instead of directly using captions or manually inputting headers, the system processes user-generated live data during playback to create chapter headers, serving as a flexible mediator that adapts to different content types.
3Manufacturing precision
If the system processes all live data to create chapters, then comprehensive content segmentation is achieved, but the device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The system presents a list of live data to the user and allows selection of specific data for chapter creation. Instead of automatically processing all live data, the user can selectively choose which live data to use, reducing unnecessary processing complexity while maintaining segmentation accuracy for chosen chapters.

AI summary
A chapter creating device includes a storage unit that stores character string data received from a plurality of terminals and the date and time when the character string data is registered, a chapter candidate selecting unit that displays live data stored in a live data storage unit on a display unit such that the user selects the live data using an input unit, and a chapter creating unit that creates chapter data including the character string data of the selected live data as the header of the chapter data and the data registration date and time of the selected live data as the time information of the chapter data.
