Solution Overview

Problem

Existing human-computer interaction systems lack flexibility in displaying communication information, as the display state of communication information cannot be switched, resulting in low display flexibility.

Innovation Solution

A method and device that display multimedia information based on a multimedia data stream, with the ability to switch the display state of communication information and adjust the communication control in response to a preset switching condition, enhancing display flexibility by changing the opacity and size of the communication information area.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If the display state of communication information is fixed, then the interface structure is simple, but the display flexibility is low

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedisplay flexibilityVSAvoidinterface structure
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies the dynamics principle by making the display state of communication information adjustable rather than fixed. The system provides multiple display states (first display state and second display state) that can be switched based on user interaction or system conditions, allowing the interface to adapt dynamically to different usage scenarios while maintaining a relatively simple underlying structure.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

Solution Approach 2:

The patent implements parameter changes by modifying display parameters such as opacity, size, or position of communication information to create different display states. By changing these visual parameters, the system achieves enhanced display flexibility without adding complex structural elements, resolving the contradiction between adaptability and structural simplicity.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

2Adaptability or versatility

If the display state of communication information can be switched, then the display flexibility is improved, but the control complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedisplay flexibilityVSAvoidcontrol operation
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The system applies self-service by automatically switching between display states based on preset conditions or user context, reducing the need for manual control operations. The switching mechanism operates autonomously according to predefined rules, thereby improving display flexibility while maintaining ease of operation.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

Solution Approach 2:

The patent uses preliminary action by pre-configuring switching conditions and display state transitions. The system is prepared in advance with defined rules for when and how to switch between display states, which simplifies the user's interaction burden while achieving flexible display adaptation.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action
