Solution Overview

Problem

Current search engines configured with multimedia databases face limitations in producing dynamic media files that are not tailored to specific user locations, demographics, or languages, leading to ineffective advertising campaigns with increased expenses and time consumption.

Innovation Solution

A computer-implemented method that receives user information from a client device, such as location, demographic data, or language, to select and integrate a media file from a database into a design template, ensuring the media file is tailored to the user's specifics, thereby modifying the template dynamically for display.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Ease of manufacture

If static images and multimedia files are used in advertising campaigns, then content creation is simple and convenient, but the campaigns are ineffective for different geographic locations, languages, and age groups, leading to increased expenses and time consumption

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecontent creation simplicityVSAvoidadvertising campaign effectiveness
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of manufactureVSProductivity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent transforms static media files into dynamic ones by introducing user information parameters (location, language, demographics) that automatically modify the content. The search engine dynamically selects and customizes media files based on real-time user data, enabling the same template to produce location-specific, language-appropriate, and demographic-tailored advertisements without manual recreation for each market segment.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

Solution Approach 2:

The patent applies local quality by customizing media file characteristics according to specific user attributes. Different geographic regions receive location-relevant imagery and content, different languages are provided in appropriate linguistic forms, and different demographic groups receive age-appropriate content. This localized customization within a unified system resolves the contradiction between simplicity and effectiveness.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #3Local quality

2Productivity

If location-specific and language-specific media files are provided for different user groups, then advertising effectiveness is improved, but data storage requirements and network usage increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveadvertising campaign effectivenessVSAvoiddata storage and network usage
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSQuantity of substance

Solution Approach 1:

The patent creates a universal template system where a single design template can serve multiple user groups by dynamically injecting appropriate media files based on user information. Instead of storing separate complete advertisement versions for each location and language, the system stores one multi-functional template that adapts to different users, significantly reducing storage requirements while maintaining effectiveness.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)

Solution Approach 2:

The patent uses copying by storing a master template structure that can be replicated and customized for different users. Rather than storing multiple complete versions of advertisements, the system stores one template that gets copied and dynamically filled with location-specific and language-specific media files, reducing the quantity of data stored and transmitted while providing personalized content.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #26Copying

3Manufacturing precision

If manual customization of advertising content for different regions is performed, then content accuracy is improved, but time consumption and expenses increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecontent accuracyVSAvoidtime consumption for content customization
Core Design Contradiction:
Manufacturing precisionVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The patent implements self-service by enabling the system to automatically select and customize media files based on user information without human intervention. The search engine autonomously processes user data (location, language, demographics) and retrieves appropriate media files, eliminating the need for manual customization while maintaining high content accuracy. This automated self-service resolves the contradiction between precision and time consumption.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

Solution Approach 2:

The patent uses feedback mechanisms where user information serves as input that automatically triggers the selection of appropriate media files. The system receives feedback about user characteristics and adjusts the content accordingly, ensuring accuracy without manual intervention. This automated feedback loop eliminates time-consuming manual customization while maintaining precision.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

AI summary

A method for receiving a request for a design template from a client device, the design template including a dynamic media file indicator is provided. The request includes collecting user information indicative of a location of the client device, a demographic datum of a user associated with the client device, or a language of the user associated with the client device, and selecting a media file from a database of media files based on the user information. The method also includes modifying the design template based on the user information to include the media file and providing the design template comprising the media file for display by the client device. A computer-readable medium including commands and a system including a processor to execute the commands and perform the above method are also provided.
