Solution Overview

Problem

Existing content processing systems face challenges in providing object information in a user-friendly and customizable manner, often requiring user interaction and failing to adapt to individual user preferences, leading to irrelevant content displays.

Innovation Solution

A content processing apparatus and method that extracts fingerprints from content at predetermined intervals, transmits them to a server, and displays object information based on set output modes, allowing for user agreement to switch between basic and detailed information displays, with automatic mode settings based on user history and content characteristics.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Productivity

If object information is provided in a standardized manner, then information delivery is efficient, but user interest satisfaction is poor

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveinformation delivery efficiencyVSAvoiduser interest satisfaction
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSAdaptability or versatility

Solution Approach 1:

The system dynamically adjusts the output mode between first mode (basic object information) and second mode (detailed object information) based on real-time content analysis and user preferences. The controller automatically switches between standardized information delivery and customized detailed information presentation, making the system adaptable to different viewing contexts while maintaining operational efficiency.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

Solution Approach 2:

The system changes the parameter of information detail level by switching between two output modes. In the first mode, basic object information is provided efficiently; in the second mode, detailed object information is provided to satisfy user interests. This parameter change allows the system to balance efficiency and adaptability.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

2Loss of information

If user manipulation is required to display detailed information, then information completeness is improved, but content relevance is degraded

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveinformation completenessVSAvoidcontent relevance
Core Design Contradiction:
Loss of informationVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs preliminary analysis of the content being displayed and pre-determines whether to switch to the second output mode that provides detailed object information. By analyzing content characteristics in advance and automatically switching modes, the system ensures that relevant detailed information is displayed proactively without requiring user manipulation, thus maintaining content relevance while ensuring information completeness.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The system uses user preference data as feedback to automatically adjust the output mode. When the system detects that detailed information would be relevant based on user preferences and content analysis, it automatically switches to the second mode, eliminating the need for user manipulation while maintaining both information completeness and content relevance.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

3Ease of operation

If automatic mode switching is implemented, then user convenience is improved, but system complexity is increased

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveuser convenienceVSAvoidsystem complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The system segments the information output into two distinct modes: first mode for basic object information and second mode for detailed object information. This segmentation allows the controller to switch between predefined states based on simple content analysis and user preference matching, achieving automatic mode switching without requiring complex decision-making algorithms, thus balancing user convenience with manageable system complexity.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation
