Solution Overview

Problem

Existing content presentation systems lack integration and interactivity, with supplemental content being decoupled from primary broadcasts, resulting in a less engaging viewer experience.

Innovation Solution

A system and method for generating coordinated presentations using a computing device with a processor and memory, where curated content and captured images are integrated with telemetry data from gyroscopes and accelerometers, enabling interactive and dynamic content delivery across remote devices.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Ease of manufacture

If supplemental content is provided through a separate communication channel, then content delivery is simplified, but viewer engagement and integration are reduced

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecontent delivery simplicityVSAvoidviewer engagement
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of manufactureVSAdaptability or versatility

Solution Approach 1:

The patent combines separate communication channels (broadcast channel and supplemental content channel) into a unified coordinated presentation system. The broadcaster integrates control of both TV broadcast content and supplemental internet content through a single interface, allowing synchronized delivery and interaction across multiple channels while maintaining the ability to deliver content through established separate infrastructures.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

2Adaptability or versatility

If curated content is integrated with captured images and telemetry data, then viewer engagement and realism are enhanced, but system complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveviewer engagementVSAvoidsystem complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The computing device performs multiple functions including capturing images via camera, collecting telemetry data from sensors (accelerometer, gyroscope, GPS), curating content, integrating these data streams, and delivering the coordinated presentation across multiple platforms. This multi-functional approach consolidates complexity into a single device rather than requiring separate systems for each function.

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

Solution Approach 2:

The system nests multiple data streams (curated content, captured images, telemetry information) within a unified coordinated presentation structure. The telemetry data and captured images are embedded within the presentation framework, which is then delivered as an integrated whole to remote devices, creating a nested hierarchy of nested content layers.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #7Nested doll (Nesting)

3Duration of action of moving object

If real-time telemetry data is processed and integrated, then dynamic background manipulation and interactivity are achieved, but processing requirements and complexity increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvereal-time interaction capabilityVSAvoidprocessing complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Duration of action of moving objectVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs preliminary actions by pre-curating content and pre-processing telemetry data collection mechanisms before the actual presentation delivery. The broadcaster sets up the integrated system in advance, preparing content libraries and configuring sensor integration, so that during live delivery the processing requirements are reduced to real-time coordination rather than real-time creation.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

AI summary

Disclosed is a system and method for generating a coordinated presentation. Content selected by a user is curated for inclusion in the coordinated presentation, and a plurality of images are captured for inclusion in the coordinated presentation. A first data stream associated with the curated content and a second data stream associated with the captured images are received, and a first arrangement of content associated with at least some of the first and second data streams are output. Telemetry information associated with at least one of a gyroscope and accelerometer is processed and at least some of the curated content is modified in accordance with at least some of the telemetry information and/or at least one of the plurality of images comprised in the second data stream. Further, respective content associated the two data streams are integrated to generate the coordinated presentation.
