Dynamic Photo Display System with Object-Based Information Updates
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current electronic photos typically contain fixed and limited information, such as capture time and location, which cannot be dynamically updated or expanded, providing a static viewing experience for users.
Innovation Solution
A method and apparatus for displaying electronic photos on mobile devices that identify key objects within the photos, obtain associated information, and present it dynamically, incorporating various sources like contact profiles, social media, and the internet, to enhance the information presented with the photo.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Loss of information
If electronic photos contain only fixed information (taking time, location, figure), then the photo structure remains simple and manageable, but the information richness and user engagement are limited
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments the photo information system into multiple independent modules: the original photo data, associated information database, and presentation layer. This allows rich information to be added without complicating the core photo structure, as information can be attached and detached independently.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent adds a temporal dimension to static photo information by continuously updating associated information over time. Instead of a single fixed information snapshot, the system creates a time-based layer of evolving information that supplements the original photo without altering its structure.
2Adaptability or versatility
If electronic photos present static information only, then the data processing remains simple and fast, but the user viewing experience becomes monotonous and lacks engagement
Solution Approach 1:
The patent transforms static photo information into a dynamic system where associated information is continuously updated based on time, user interactions, and external data sources. The information presentation adapts to user behavior, providing different content at different times while maintaining a manageable processing framework through modular architecture.
3Loss of information
If associated information is obtained continuously for key objects, then the information freshness and relevance are improved, but the data processing time and resource consumption increase
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements periodic updates of associated information at specified time intervals rather than continuous real-time updates. This approach maintains information freshness by regularly refreshing content while significantly reducing processing overhead compared to continuous monitoring, allowing the system to balance freshness with resource efficiency.
Data Source
AI summary
The present invention provides a method and an apparatus for displaying an electronic photo. A key object included in an electronic photo is identified, associated information that matches the key object is integrated, and the associated information is constantly updated, so that information included in the electronic photo is dynamic and fresh, and an amount of the information included in the electronic photo is increased. The method includes: identifying a key object included in the electronic photo, obtaining, for at least one time, associated information that matches the identified key object, and presenting the associated information and the electronic photo when a preset presentation manner is triggered.
