Exercise Presentation Model Input Mapping
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing presentation tools require recording the entire set of input as a video, leading to inefficient storage and playback, as they capture all actions regardless of relevance, making changes to visual aids cumbersome and storage-intensive.
Innovation Solution
A method and apparatus that allow users to record and playback presentations by mapping user inputs to actions against a backdrop, enabling selective recording and playback of relevant inputs, with dynamic logic for backdrop selection and annotation during playback.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If the entire set of input is recorded as a video, then all actions are captured, but storage efficiency deteriorates and playback becomes cumbersome
Solution Approach 1:
The patent extracts only the relevant actions from the entire input sequence and stores them separately from the full video recording. By taking out only the necessary action data (coordinates, timestamps, duration) rather than storing the complete video stream, the system maintains capture completeness for relevant actions while dramatically reducing storage requirements.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent segments the recording process into two independent parts: a lightweight action data structure that captures only relevant inputs, and the full video stream for reference. This segmentation allows the system to store only the essential action information in a compact format while keeping the complete video available for playback, resolving the contradiction between comprehensive capture and storage efficiency.
2Reliability
If the entire continuum of actions is recorded, then all inputs are captured, but playback efficiency deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The patent extracts only the relevant action data from the continuous input stream and stores it in a compressed format with timestamps and durations. This extraction allows the system to play back only the necessary actions rather than the entire continuum, significantly reducing playback time while maintaining complete capture of relevant inputs.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent implements dynamic playback capability where the system can adjust the playback speed and sequence based on the recorded action durations and timestamps. This dynamic playback allows users to review only the relevant portions at appropriate speeds, optimizing both time efficiency and input capture accuracy.
3Adaptability or versatility
If video editing techniques are used to make changes, then visual aids can be modified, but operation complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent stores action data in a structured format that allows for easy modification before final rendering. By pre-storing the action parameters (coordinates, duration, type) in a searchable and modifiable data structure, the system enables users to easily change visual aids by simply updating the stored action data rather than performing complex video editing operations.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent creates a separate, modifiable copy of the action data that can be edited independently from the final video output. This copy serves as a working model that can be easily modified and re-rendered, providing a simple interface for visual aid modification without requiring complex video editing techniques.

AI summary
A method, apparatus and computer program product are provided in order to provide a presentation model. An example method may include receiving a selection of an exercise backdrop, displaying a representation of the exercise backdrop, receiving user input performed against an interface displaying the representation of the exercise backdrop, mapping the user input to an action, and generating an exercise comprising the exercise backdrop and a plurality of actions comprising the action.
