Solution Overview

Problem

Current technologies are inadequate in managing and controlling digital content captured using multiple content capturing devices simultaneously, failing to effectively process and distribute this content across various platforms.

Innovation Solution

A method and system that utilize a communication device and processing device to receive and analyze content capturing contexts, generate commands, and transmit instructions to source user devices, allowing for simultaneous capture and processing of digital content from multiple devices, including cameras and LIDAR scanners, and embedding supplemental content for distribution across social media platforms.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Quantity of substance

If multiple content capturing devices capture digital content simultaneously from multiple points of view, then the quantity and diversity of captured content increases, but the complexity of managing and processing the captured content increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvequantity of captured digital contentVSAvoidcomplexity of content management system
Core Design Contradiction:
Quantity of substanceVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent introduces a content management server as an intermediary between multiple content capturing devices and multiple target user devices. This server receives captured content from multiple devices, processes it, and distributes it to multiple target devices. The intermediary handles the complexity of managing simultaneous content from multiple viewpoints, relieving individual devices from burden and enabling scalable content distribution without proportionally increasing system complexity.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

2Productivity

If automated processing and distribution of digital content is implemented across multiple platforms, then productivity and user experience are enhanced, but the extent of automation required increases system complexity

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecontent distribution efficiencyVSAvoidcomplexity of automated processing system
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The content management server performs multiple functions: receiving content from various capturing devices, processing content according to platform characteristics, embedding supplemental content, and distributing to multiple social media platforms. This multi-functional approach consolidates complexity into a single universal system rather than requiring separate specialized systems for each function, improving productivity while managing overall system complexity efficiently.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)

Solution Approach 2:

The system automatically adjusts processing parameters based on target platform characteristics. The content management server modifies content parameters (format, resolution, encoding) according to the specific requirements of each social media platform. This automated parameter adaptation enables efficient multi-platform distribution without manual intervention for each platform, enhancing productivity while the server manages the complexity of parameter transformations.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

3Reliability

If supplemental content is embedded in digital content for social media distribution, then the quality and engagement of distributed content improve, but the processing time and computational resources required increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvequality of distributed contentVSAvoidcontent processing time
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The content management server performs preliminary processing of captured content before distribution, including embedding supplemental content, adjusting parameters, and preparing for multiple platforms. By doing this preparation work in advance rather than in real-time during distribution, the system ensures high content quality while minimizing the time loss during actual deployment. The supplemental content (metadata, captions, tags) is embedded during the initial processing phase.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action
