Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
In virtual universes, residents face difficulties in efficiently sharing contact information with other users, as existing communication tools like chat and gestures are time-consuming and require manual repetition when meeting new individuals with similar interests.
Innovation Solution
A method and system for creating and distributing dynamic, multi-content cards that can include contact information such as pictures, audio, video, documents, and links, allowing users to quickly and efficiently share personalized or business-related details with other residents, including the option for custom card creation and distribution.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Productivity
If residents use existing communication tools like chat and gestures to share contact information, then they can convey information to other users, but the process is time-consuming and requires manual repetition when meeting new individuals with similar interests
Solution Approach 1:
The system pre-preares contact information cards with relevant user details before interactions occur. When a resident needs to share information, they simply distribute the pre-prepared card rather than manually typing or reciting contact details, eliminating the need for repeated manual input when meeting multiple users with similar interests
Solution Approach 2:
Instead of manually recreating contact information for each user interaction, the system creates a reusable digital copy of the contact card that can be distributed to multiple users. This copy contains all necessary information (name, contact details, interests) and can be shared repeatedly without manual repetition
2Ease of operation
If residents manually convey contact information to each new resident they meet, then they can share personalized details, but the process becomes repetitive and inefficient when meeting multiple users with similar traits
Solution Approach 1:
The contact information card serves itself by automatically providing all necessary contact details and user information to the recipient when distributed. The card contains embedded data about the user's interests, contact information, and profile details, eliminating the need for the resident to manually search for or recite this information for each interaction
Solution Approach 2:
The contact card is designed as a universal communication tool that can be used across multiple interactions with different users. A single card design and data structure can serve various purposes (introduction, business card, profile summary) and be distributed to any resident regardless of their specific traits or interests, improving overall efficiency

AI summary
A method and system is provided for creation and distribution of dynamic multi-content cards in a virtual universe. More specifically, the method creates a card containing contact information for viewing in a virtual universe (VU) and distribute the card in the VU. Additionally, the system includes a card selection tool configured to create a card containing contact information for viewing in a virtual universe (VU) and distribute the card to another resident in the VU.
