Solution Overview

Problem

Current aimbot detection methods face challenges such as high costs, scalability issues, and ease of bypass, particularly in online first-person shooter games.

Innovation Solution

A distributed aimbot detection system utilizing a trusted execution environment (TEE) and a deep learning model is implemented, which receives game play information from a game server, transforms the data, and uses an aimbot detection model to predict player actions, determining if an aimbot is being used.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Measurement precision

If a central server monitors all player actions in real-time, then detection accuracy is improved, but server cost and scalability deteriorate

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedetection accuracyVSAvoidserver scale and management cost
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The detection system is segmented between client and server. The client performs local action data transformation and preliminary processing, while the server only receives transformed data and performs final detection. This segmentation reduces server workload and improves scalability while maintaining detection accuracy through distributed computation.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The patent extracts the action data transformation function from the server and places it in the client. The client extracts relevant features and transforms action data locally before sending to the server, reducing the amount of data transmitted and processed by the server, thus lowering server cost and improving scalability.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #2Taking out (Extraction)

2Device complexity

If statistical value-based detection is used, then server computation is reduced, but detection accuracy deteriorates

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveserver computation loadVSAvoiddetection accuracy
Core Design Contradiction:
Device complexityVSMeasurement precision

Solution Approach 1:

The patent introduces an intermediary transformation layer at the client side that converts raw action data into transformed action data with extracted features. This intermediary layer prepares data in a format suitable for server processing, enabling the server to perform accurate detection with reduced computation load by working with pre-processed features rather than raw data.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

3Ease of manufacture

If traditional aimbot detection methods are used, then implementation is simple, but ease of bypass increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveimplementation simplicityVSAvoidbypass difficulty
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of manufactureVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The patent changes the detection parameters from simple statistical values to transformed action data that includes extracted features and temporal information. By transforming the data representation and using multiple features (position, angle, time intervals), the system becomes more difficult to bypass while remaining implementable through standardized deep learning frameworks.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes
