Digital Design Retargeting via Compatibility Scoring
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current methods for creating and editing digital media are cumbersome, especially for untrained users, as they require bulky software and larger computing devices, limiting the ability to create or edit digital images on handheld devices.
Innovation Solution
A digital content creation/editing system that filters and presents template digital designs scored for compatibility with the user's input design, allowing users to easily match the look and feel of their input design to a selected template, thereby producing eye-catching and aesthetically pleasing designs without extensive training or resources.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Manufacturing precision
If conventional digital editing software is used, then professional design results can be achieved, but the software requires bulky equipment and substantial processing power
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies the copying principle by using template digital designs as pre-designed models that users can select and apply. Instead of requiring users to create professional designs from scratch using complex software, the system copies proven design templates and adapts them to the user's input image, thereby achieving professional design results without requiring bulky editing software or extensive design experience.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent implements preliminary action by pre-designing and storing multiple template digital designs with various professional styles, layouts, and aesthetics. These templates are prepared in advance and scored for compatibility with different input images. When a user wants to create a design, the system has already done the complex design work beforehand, eliminating the need for users to have access to professional editing software or design skills.
2Adaptability or versatility
If trial-and-error design process is used by untrained users, then they attempt to replicate existing designs, but this process is frustrating and wastes time
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies feedback by implementing an automated compatibility scoring system that evaluates how well each template matches the user's input image. The system provides immediate feedback by ranking templates based on their compatibility scores, allowing users to quickly identify the best matching template without trial-and-error. This automated feedback mechanism eliminates the frustrating process of manually testing different design approaches.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent implements self-service by enabling the system to automatically analyze the user's input image, score multiple templates for compatibility, and present the best matches to the user. The system performs the complex analysis and matching work autonomously without requiring the user to have design training or to manually experiment with different templates, thereby saving time and eliminating frustration.
3Ease of operation
If digital editing is performed on handheld devices, then portability is improved, but the ability to create professional designs is limited without bulky software
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies copying by storing and reproducing professional design templates directly on handheld devices. The system maintains a database of pre-designed templates with professional layouts, color schemes, and typography. When a user selects a template on their handheld device, the system copies the template design elements and applies them to the user's input image, enabling professional design creation on portable devices without requiring bulky editing software.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent implements parameter changes by automatically adjusting design parameters such as font sizes, color codes, layout dimensions, and spacing based on the selected template and the characteristics of the user's input image. The system modifies these parameters automatically to ensure the final design maintains professional quality standards while being created on a handheld device with limited processing power.

AI summary
The present disclosure is directed toward systems and methods for retargeting a user's input digital design based on a selected template digital design. For example, in response to the user's selection of a template digital design, one or more embodiments described herein change various design features of the user's input digital design to match corresponding design features in the selected template digital design. One or more embodiments described herein also provide template digital designs to the user for use in retargeting after a two-step selection process that ensures the provided template digital designs are compatible with the user's input digital design.
