Relocating Content Items to Motion Picture Sequences
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current online virtual meeting systems lack efficient methods for managing and relocating content items between multiple devices during collaborative presentations, limiting interactive and engaging experiences.
Innovation Solution
An electronic presentation system that allows for the display of motion picture image sequences across multiple computing devices, enabling the relocation of content items from slides to specific regions within these sequences, and pinning them for persistent display, using computer processors and memories to manage and configure the display operations based on user input and gestures.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Loss of information
If content items are displayed separately from motion picture image sequences on multiple devices, then content visibility is improved, but system complexity increases due to managing relocation across multiple devices
Solution Approach 1:
The patent combines multiple device displays into a unified presentation space where content items can be relocated across devices. The system merges the display states of multiple devices, allowing content to be pinned to specific motion picture sequences on any device while maintaining synchronization across all devices in the presentation.
Solution Approach 2:
The presentation management system provides universal content relocation capability that works across different device types and configurations. A single content item can be relocated to different positions on different devices based on their respective motion picture sequences, making the system adaptable to various multi-device scenarios without requiring device-specific implementations.
2Productivity
If content items are relocated to motion picture sequences in real-time during presentations, then collaborative efficiency is improved, but operational complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The system prepares content items for relocation by pre-processing them into relocatable units with associated metadata. Before the presentation begins, content is organized and tagged so that during the presentation, relocation operations can be performed quickly by simply specifying the target motion picture sequence and position, rather than requiring complex manipulation during live delivery.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent implements dynamic content relocation where content items can be moved from static slide positions to dynamic positions within motion picture sequences. The system continuously updates content positions based on the playing state of motion pictures, allowing content to follow or overlay specific frames, scenes, or time periods within video content during the presentation.
3Adaptability or versatility
If multiple devices display separate motion picture image sequences, then adaptability to different user needs is improved, but synchronization difficulty increases
Solution Approach 1:
The system allows each device to have its own motion picture sequence and content display configuration tailored to local user needs. Each device can display different motion pictures or different portions of the same presentation, with content items relocated to positions specific to each device's display context. This enables customized viewing experiences while maintaining overall presentation coherence through centralized management of content relocation rules.

AI summary
An electronic presentation system comprising: one or more computer processors operatively coupled to one or more computer memories storing a set of instructions for configuring the one or more computer processors to perform operations comprising: causing display of a motion picture image sequence (MPIS) captured at a first computing device, within display screens at multiple computing devices; causing display of first multiple content items, on the display screens of the multiple computing devices, separate from the MPIS; and based at least in part upon receiving at the presentation management system from the first computing device, first relocation information indicating a first content item, causing relocation of display of the of the first content item, to within the MPIS displayed at the multiple computing devices.
