Scrollable Content Preview with Graphic Cues for Continuous Viewing
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing content consumption systems fail to effectively attract and maintain user interest, leading to reduced consumer engagement and potential churn.
Innovation Solution
A method and system that provides preview content in a preset area, allowing users to access and interact with specific content through scroll requests, and offers graphic objects linked to viewing specific content based on a preset range, guiding continuous consumption.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If preview content is provided in a preset area, then user access to content is enhanced, but the display area utilization is reduced
Solution Approach 1:
The display area is segmented into a preset preview area and a remaining area. The preview area displays preview content while the remaining area can display other information or be used for additional content presentation, thus resolving the contradiction between providing preview functionality and utilizing display space efficiently
Solution Approach 2:
The system transitions from a single-dimensional display approach to a multi-dimensional approach by introducing a preset preview area that operates independently from the main content display area, allowing preview content to be accessed without occupying the entire display space
2Ease of operation
If scroll request changes output range of preview content, then user engagement is improved, but system complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The output range of preview content is made dynamic and adjustable based on user scroll requests. The system can adaptively change which portion of preview content is displayed in the preset area according to user interaction, improving engagement while managing complexity through responsive design
Solution Approach 2:
The system responds to user scroll requests by adjusting the output range of preview content, creating a feedback loop where user interaction directly influences content presentation. This feedback mechanism enhances engagement by providing relevant content based on user behavior
3Productivity
If graphic object is provided based on preset range, then continuous consumption is guided, but information processing complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The system pre-determines preset ranges within the preview content and prepares graphic objects that will be displayed when users reach these ranges through scrolling. This preliminary preparation guides users toward complete content viewing without requiring complex real-time processing
Solution Approach 2:
Graphic objects serve as intermediaries between the preview content and the full content. These visual elements appear at predetermined ranges and act as cues or calls-to-action that encourage users to access the complete content, simplifying the information processing by using visual anchors rather than complex processing

AI summary
A method of providing content includes providing preview content for specific content in a preset preview area corresponding to at least a portion of a display area, changing, based on receiving a scroll request for the preview area, an output range of the preview content output in the preview area, and providing, based on the output range of the preview content corresponding to a preset range, a graphic object related to viewing the specific content in the preview area.
