Solution Overview

Problem

Existing live streaming room chat functions are monotonous and do not cater to diverse user requirements, leading to a poor user experience due to the need for complex interaction operations and interface jumps between public and private chats.

Innovation Solution

Implementing a customizable chat channel system within the live streaming room interface, allowing users to create or join private chat channels, with the option to display first chat content directly on the interface, distinguishable from public chat, and adapt display settings to user preferences.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Ease of operation

If a customized chat channel is displayed on the live streaming room interface, then user experience and interaction efficiency are improved, but the device complexity and interface design complexity increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveinteraction efficiencyVSAvoidinterface design complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The chat functionality is segmented into distinct channels (public chat channel and customized chat channels) that can be independently managed and displayed. Each channel type has its own display area and control mechanisms, allowing users to switch between them without confusion. This segmentation resolves the contradiction by organizing complexity into manageable, separate components while maintaining ease of operation through clear channel differentiation.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The patent introduces a new dimension to the interface by adding customizable chat channels as an additional layer alongside the traditional public chat. This dimensional expansion allows multiple chat types to coexist without interfering with each other, improving interaction efficiency while managing complexity through structured layering of chat functionalities.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #17Another dimension (Dimensionality change)

2Adaptability or versatility

If multiple chat channels are supported, then adaptability to diverse user requirements is improved, but the device complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvechat function diversityVSAvoidsystem complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The live streaming room interface is designed with universal chat capabilities that can handle both public and customized chat channels through a unified architecture. The system provides multi-functional chat support where the same interface framework accommodates different chat types, improving adaptability to diverse user requirements while controlling system complexity through standardized handling mechanisms.

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

Solution Approach 2:

The chat channel system is designed to be dynamic, allowing users to create, switch between, and manage different chat channels based on their needs. The interface adapts its state according to the selected channel type, providing versatility while managing complexity through dynamic configuration rather than static, hard-coded structures.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics
