Solution Overview

Problem

Existing digital display systems lack an interactive interface that automatically searches for and retrieves contextual information from hyperlinks and searches without requiring user input, failing to respond in real-time to user interactions and disrupt the browsing experience.

Innovation Solution

A computing system with a chatbot application that automatically searches for and retrieves contextual information based on user interactions with displayed digital content, displaying it without requiring user input, and integrates it with a media gallery or shopping cart for seamless information collection and purchase.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Productivity

If the system automatically searches for and retrieves contextual information from hyperlinks and searches, then the productivity of information retrieval is improved, but the device complexity increases due to the need for automated search and retrieval mechanisms

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveinformation retrieval speedVSAvoidsystem complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs automated search and retrieval of contextual information without requiring user initiation. The chatbot application autonomously monitors user interactions with displayed content, extracts relevant contextual information from hyperlinks and search sources, and presents results back to the user, enabling the system to serve itself in the information retrieval process

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

Solution Approach 2:

The chatbot application acts as an intermediary between the user and the vast amount of contextual information available online. It mediates the complex processes of web crawling, data extraction, and information synthesis, presenting simplified results to users while handling the complexity of automated search mechanisms in the background

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

2Ease of operation

If the system displays contextual information in real-time based on user interactions, then the ease of operation is improved, but the loss of time in processing and displaying information increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveuser interaction simplicityVSAvoidinformation processing time
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The system pre-loads and caches contextual information from hyperlinks and search sources before users actually need it. By anticipating user information needs based on interaction patterns and preparing relevant content in advance, the system reduces the perceived processing time when users request contextual information during browsing

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The system continuously monitors user interactions with displayed content and uses this feedback to dynamically adjust and prioritize which contextual information to retrieve and display. This feedback loop enables the system to focus computational resources on the most relevant information based on actual user behavior rather than processing all possible contextual data

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

3Quantity of substance

If the system captures and filters hundreds of links and thousands of contextual information pieces, then the quantity of information available is improved, but the difficulty of detecting and measuring relevant information increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveamount of contextual informationVSAvoidinformation filtering complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Quantity of substanceVSDifficulty of detecting and measuring

Solution Approach 1:

The system applies different filtering and prioritization criteria to different types of contextual information based on their relevance to the currently displayed content. Rather than treating all hundreds of links and thousands of information pieces uniformly, it applies local quality assessment to identify and highlight the most pertinent information for the user's current context

Inventive Principle:
Principle #3Local quality

Solution Approach 2:

The chatbot application serves as an intermediary layer that processes and filters the overwhelming quantity of contextual information from multiple hyperlinks and search sources. It synthesizes this vast amount of data into manageable, relevant summaries and presentations, shielding users from the complexity of information overload while maintaining access to comprehensive contextual data

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

AI summary

A user interface application displays a series of digital images in a display space. A user interface receives input to select one of the series of digital images, or portion thereof. The user-selected digital image, or portion thereof, is displayed in a location with the field of view of the displayed series of digital images or display space. While the user interface application continues to display the series of digital images in the display space, an application, such as a chatbot, searches one or more digital data sources for, and retrieves, contextual information based on the displayed user-selected digital images or portion thereof, without receiving user input to perform the searching.
