Dynamic Audio Graphs for Enhanced User Perception
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current mobile communication terminals lack a visually dynamic experience during sound-based interactions, such as music playback or voice interactions, resulting in a limited and inflexible user engagement, leading to poor user experience.
Innovation Solution
An information displaying method that obtains audio data and presents attribute information through dynamic graphs with rotating animations, where the shape and rotation speed of the graphs are correlated to the audio data's attribute information, enhancing user perception and interaction.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If traditional static visual elements are used during sound playback, then the interface is simple to implement, but the user experience is poor due to lack of visual dynamism and engagement
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies dynamics by transforming static visual elements into dynamic graphs that continuously update based on audio attributes. The graph evolves in real-time during sound playback, with its shape, size, and position changing according to frequency and amplitude variations, creating a visually engaging experience that adapts to the audio content
Solution Approach 2:
The patent utilizes parameter changes by mapping audio parameters (frequency, amplitude) to visual parameters (graph position, size, shape). As audio parameters change during playback, the visual graph parameters change correspondingly, creating a dynamic visual representation that reflects the audio state without requiring complex interface structures
2Loss of information
If audio attribute information is presented in a dynamic form, then user perception is enhanced, but the processing complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent introduces an intermediary visual graph that mediates between the audio data and the user's perception. Instead of directly presenting raw audio attributes, the graph serves as an intermediary representation that translates complex audio information into intuitive visual forms, enhancing perception while managing processing complexity through abstraction
3Ease of operation
If the graph shape is continuously updated based on audio attributes, then the visual engagement is improved, but the computational load increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies partial action by updating only the necessary portions of the graph based on significant audio attribute changes. Instead of completely regenerating the graph continuously, the system updates specific graph parameters (position, size, shape) only when audio attributes change beyond certain thresholds, reducing computational energy while maintaining user engagement
Data Source
AI summary
An information displaying method and a terminal are provided. The method includes: obtaining audio data to be played in a chronological order; determining, based on attribute information at any moment of a sound represented by the audio data, a shape of a graph corresponding to the any moment, where the graph corresponding to the any moment including a closed curve with a bump, and a maximum distance in distances from points on the bump to a center of the graph is positively correlated to a value indicated by the attribute information at the any moment; and displaying the graph corresponding to the any moment. The bump in the graph changes with the value indicated by the attribute information of the sound, and such graph is presented to a user, to enhance perception of the user on the attribute information of the audio data and improve user experience.
