Solution Overview

Problem

In collaborative communication scenarios, group chats are cumbersome for sharing business data, leading to a poor user experience as important information is often overwhelmed by numerous chat messages, making it difficult for users to notice and access relevant information.

Innovation Solution

Display information-bearing containers in a chat interface separate from chat messages, allowing preset information to be displayed and updated dynamically, enhancing user attention to important data without interference from chat messages.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Loss of information

If business data is sent through group chat messages, then information sharing is achieved, but user experience deteriorates due to cumbersome operations and information being overwhelmed by numerous chat messages

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveinformation accessibilityVSAvoiduser experience
Core Design Contradiction:
Loss of informationVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The patent segments the chat interface into distinct functional areas: a chat message display area for communication and a container display area for business data visualization. This segmentation allows business information to be presented in dedicated containers (widgets) rather than being mixed with chat messages, improving both information accessibility and user experience by eliminating the cumbersome task of searching through numerous messages.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

2Loss of information

If preset information is displayed in the chat interface, then user attention to important data is enhanced, but interference from chat messages makes it difficult to notice relevant information

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveinformation visibilityVSAvoidinterference from chat messages
Core Design Contradiction:
Loss of informationVSObject-affected harmful factors

Solution Approach 1:

The patent extracts business data presentation from the chat message flow by introducing separate container display areas that can be independently configured. These containers display business information (such as sales data, inventory levels, or project status) in dedicated visual formats, removing the harmful interference of chat messages from the information display and enhancing visibility of important data.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #2Taking out (Extraction)

Solution Approach 2:

The patent applies local quality by allowing different display characteristics for different areas of the interface. The container display area can be configured with specific visual properties (such as highlighting, positioning, or display format) to enhance the visibility of important business information, while the chat message area maintains its conventional characteristics. This localized optimization ensures that important data stands out without being drowned out by chat messages.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #3Local quality

AI summary

An information processing method and apparatus, an electronic device, and a computer-readable medium are provided. The method includes: displaying one or more information-bearing containers in a chat interface of a client of a communication system after receiving a first preset operation, and displaying preset information in the information-bearing containers, so that the preset information is not displayed as a chat message in a chat corresponding to the chat interface, but displayed in a display manner that is completely different from that of chat information. In this way, all chat messages involved in the chat interface do not interfere with a process of a chat participant in the chat interface paying attention to the preset information, so as to better improve the display effect of some information in the chat interface, which is conducive to improving the user experience.
