Solution Overview

Problem

Current advertising and sales technologies fail to provide personalized experiences based on cumulative consumer interactions, leading to inefficient data processing, high bandwidth requirements, and the persistence of outdated information, which reduces consumer engagement and makes it difficult to determine accurate Customer Lifetime Value (CLV).

Innovation Solution

A system that collects and processes consumer data using a synchronized time clock and unique user identification, segregating it into segment attributes and behavior metrics, enabling real-time and batch processing, and automatically purging obsolete data to provide customized experiences and optimize bandwidth utilization.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If data from multiple sources is accumulated and processed in real-time to provide personalized consumer experiences, then consumer engagement and CLV accuracy improve, but bandwidth requirements and processing costs increase exponentially

Engineering Contradiction:
ImproveCLV calculation accuracyVSAvoidbandwidth consumption
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSUse of energy by moving object

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs preliminary data processing and segmentation by pre-defining consumer segments based on available data sources. This allows the system to prepare personalized content and pricing strategies in advance, reducing the need for real-time data processing and bandwidth consumption when delivering personalized experiences.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The patent segments consumer data into distinct categories and attributes, allowing the system to process and store only relevant segment-specific information rather than complete consumer profiles. This segmentation reduces overall data processing requirements and bandwidth usage while maintaining the ability to provide personalized experiences.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

2Measurement precision

If complete consumer interaction data is retained and processed, then personalized marketing and pricing accuracy improve, but data processing complexity and costs increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveconsumer behavior analysis accuracyVSAvoiddata processing system complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The system extracts only the essential consumer attributes and behavioral metrics needed for personalization, separating these from complete interaction data. This extraction approach maintains measurement precision for key metrics while reducing the complexity of data processing and storage requirements.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #2Taking out (Extraction)

Solution Approach 2:

The system performs preliminary data reduction and attribute definition, pre-processing consumer data into standardized segments before storage. This preliminary action simplifies subsequent processing operations and reduces system complexity while preserving the accuracy needed for personalized marketing and pricing.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

3Productivity

If real-time data processing is implemented across multiple sources, then consumer engagement improves, but processing time and system resources increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvepersonalization delivery speedVSAvoiddata processing time
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs preliminary segmentation and data preparation in advance, storing pre-processed consumer segments that can be quickly retrieved and applied during real-time interactions. This eliminates the need for complex real-time processing while maintaining personalization delivery speed.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

By segmenting consumer data into predefined categories and attributes, the system enables rapid retrieval and application of relevant consumer information during real-time interactions, improving productivity while minimizing processing time.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

4Ease of operation

If outdated advertising content is continuously displayed, then ad delivery simplicity is maintained, but consumer engagement and brand perception deteriorate

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveadvertising delivery simplicityVSAvoidconsumer engagement quality
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The system pre-processes and segments consumer data to identify current interests and behaviors, then uses this pre-prepared information to automatically select and deliver relevant advertising content. This maintains advertising delivery simplicity while ensuring content relevance through advance data preparation.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The system uses consumer interaction data and segment updates as feedback to continuously refine advertising content selection. This feedback mechanism ensures that displayed advertisements remain relevant to current consumer interests while maintaining the simplicity of automated delivery.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

AI summary

A first set of electronic information is logged to a remotely located data store, including a user identifier, primary content, secondary content, and user interaction with the primary content and the secondary content. A second set of electronic information is received from a data source other than the user device, the second set of electronic information being related to the same user identifier as the user identifier of the first set of electronic information. Behavioral data is created for the user identifier based on at least the logged first set of electronic information and the second set of electronic information. A subsequently displayed container is controlled or modified based on the behavioral data.
