Digital Asset Usability Transfer Platform
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
There is no existing method to resell or transfer digital instances of video games or in-game content from one user to another, limiting the flexibility and value of digital assets.
Innovation Solution
An asset management system that identifies digital assets associated with video games, enables authorization transfer between user devices based on user matching and payment or smart contract conditions, effectively allowing the transfer of usability of digital assets from one user to another.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If digital assets are made transferable between users, then the flexibility and value of digital game assets are enhanced, but the complexity of the authorization management system increases
Solution Approach 1:
The system segments the digital asset ownership and authorization into distinct components: the asset itself, the authorization tokens, and the user profiles. This allows independent management of each component, enabling transferability without requiring complete system redesign. The authorization can be separated from the original user and reattached to a new user through structured token transfer mechanisms.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent introduces an intermediary authorization management system that mediates between the digital asset, the original user, and the receiving user. This intermediary layer handles the complex authorization transfer logic, secure token transmission, and validation processes, shielding the underlying complexity from end users while enabling seamless asset transfers.
2Productivity
If automatic authorization transfer is implemented, then the efficiency of asset resale is improved, but the security risks of unauthorized transfers increase
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs preliminary actions by establishing secure authorization protocols and user verification mechanisms before the actual asset transfer occurs. User identities are verified, transfer conditions are validated, and authorization tokens are prepared for secure transmission in advance, ensuring that the automatic transfer process is both efficient and secure.
Solution Approach 2:
The authorization management system implements feedback mechanisms that monitor and validate each step of the transfer process. The system provides confirmation signals to verify successful transfers, alerts for suspicious activities, and validation feedback to ensure transfer conditions are met. This continuous feedback loop maintains security while enabling automatic transfers.

AI summary
Systems and methods for authorization reconfiguration for digital asset usability are described. An asset management system identifies an asset associated with a video game. A first user device is authorized to use the asset. The first user device is associated with a first user. The asset management system identifies a second user, for instance through a shared characteristic with the first user. A second user device associated with the second user lacks authorization to use the asset. The asset management system receives an indication of a transfer of usability of the asset, such as an indication that the second user has paid for the transfer, or that the conditions of a smart contract have been met. In response to receiving the indication, the asset management system automatically disables authorization for the first user device to use the asset and enables authorization for the second user device to use the asset.
