Digital Workspace Sharing via Display Identification Codes
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing collaboration systems face challenges in efficiently managing user authorization, content sharing, and access to digital display walls, leading to wasted meeting time and security concerns.
Innovation Solution
A system that uses display identification codes (DICs) to authenticate users and distribute digital content across multiple locations, allowing users to share workspaces with hardware devices via DICs or mobile phone numbers, and ensuring secure access during scheduled meetings.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Loss of time
If traditional authentication methods are used, then user security is maintained, but meeting setup time increases significantly
Solution Approach 1:
Display identification codes are generated and displayed on digital display devices before users need to access the workspace. Users simply need to input the pre-displayed code instead of undergoing full authentication procedures, significantly reducing setup time while maintaining security through code validation.
Solution Approach 2:
Display identification codes serve as an intermediary element between users and the digital workspace. These codes are displayed on the digital display device and input by users to establish connection, acting as a simplified authentication mechanism that reduces the complexity of the login process.
2Ease of operation
If digital display walls are made accessible to any user, then ease of access is improved, but security and resource utilization deteriorate
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs preliminary actions by displaying identification codes on digital display devices before users attempt to access the workspace. This pre-displayed code mechanism ensures that only users with the correct code can access the display, maintaining security while simplifying the access process.
Solution Approach 2:
The system provides feedback by displaying identification codes that users must input to gain access. This feedback mechanism ensures that access is granted only to authenticated users, maintaining security while making the process user-friendly through clear code display and validation.
3Adaptability or versatility
If users can access digital display walls without scheduled meetings, then flexibility is improved, but resource utilization and meeting efficiency deteriorate
Solution Approach 1:
The system displays identification codes only for scheduled meetings in advance. Users can access the digital display wall by inputting the pre-displayed code, which provides flexibility for scheduled participants while preventing unscheduled access, thereby maintaining meeting efficiency and resource utilization.

AI summary
Systems and techniques are provided for a digital collaborative workspace system. The system includes a server network node having a processor and a database accessible thereto. The server network node can include logic to register a first display identification code (DIC) with a first network node, a second DIC with a second network node and a third DIC with a third network node. The server network node can detect an input from a second user identifying the shared workspace and the registered phone number or other identifier of the first user. The server network node can transmit this data to the third network node and in dependence upon receiving a selection of one or more of the first DIC, the second DIC, and the third DIC from the third network node, start a collaboration by sending the shared digital workspace to the network nodes registered with the selected DICs.
