Facilitator-Triggered Participant Sensing for Accurate Content Delivery
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing systems struggle to accurately determine which participants are located at a particular location within a venue, leading to incorrect content being provided to their devices, wasting resources in identification and delivery.
Innovation Solution
An interaction system that receives trigger information from a facilitator device to identify the location and participants at a sensing location, determining interaction information provided, and modifying records to ensure accurate content delivery based on participant experiences.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Speed
If the system provides content to participants without accurate location verification, then content delivery speed is improved, but content accuracy deteriorates leading to incorrect content being provided
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs location verification and participant identification before content delivery. The interaction system determines participant locations at sensing locations, verifies interaction information provision, and updates records in advance, ensuring accurate content delivery without compromising speed
Solution Approach 2:
The patent introduces an interaction system as an intermediary between the content delivery system and participants. This intermediary verifies participant locations, tracks interaction information provision, and manages content delivery records, thereby ensuring accuracy while maintaining delivery efficiency
2Reliability
If the system verifies participant location and interaction information before content delivery, then content accuracy is improved, but system complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The interaction system performs multiple functions: receiving trigger information, determining participant locations, verifying interaction information provision, updating delivery records, and triggering content delivery. By consolidating these functions into a single multi-functional system, the patent improves reliability without proportionally increasing overall system complexity
Solution Approach 2:
The system uses participant devices to self-report location information and the facilitator device to self-report interaction information provision. This self-service approach reduces the need for complex external verification mechanisms while maintaining delivery accuracy
3Adaptability or versatility
If the system tracks and records interaction information for each participant, then content personalization is improved, but information processing load increases
Solution Approach 1:
The system maintains separate delivery records for each participant based on their specific location and interaction information. By localizing the information processing to each participant's specific context rather than processing all participant data uniformly, the system achieves personalization while managing processing load efficiently

AI summary
An interaction system may receive trigger information associated with a facilitator device of a facilitator at a venue. The trigger information may be transmitted based on the facilitator operating the facilitator device during an interaction between the facilitator and one or more participants. The interaction system may determine, based on receiving the trigger information, that interaction information has been provided to the one or more participants. The interaction system may determine, in response to the trigger information, that the facilitator was located at a particular sensing location. The interaction system may obtain, using sensing location information identifying the particular sensing location, participant device information regarding a participant device located at the particular sensing location during the interaction. The interaction system may modify a record associated with the participant device to reflect that the interaction information was provided to a participant associated with the participant device during the interaction.
