First-Person Content View Interface with Location-Based Discovery
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Users face challenges in discovering and accessing high-quality online content due to its abundance and the difficulty in finding relevant content amidst a vast array of options, with traditional methods being resource-intensive and ineffective in presenting content in an engaging manner.
Innovation Solution
A system that receives access addresses of content with location information, determines availability, and presents it on a user interface with a first-person perspective based on the user's location, directional heading, and angle of elevation, using augmented reality and virtuality to provide a global view of content, allowing users to browse by location and time.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If traditional content discovery methods are used, then users can access online content, but users face difficulty in discovering and accessing relevant content amidst vast options
Solution Approach 1:
The patent introduces an intermediary system that automatically detects and verifies content availability at source addresses before presenting it to users. This intermediary layer (content availability detection system) bridges the gap between users and the vast content landscape, automatically filtering and validating content so users don't have to manually search through endless options, thus improving content discovery ease while maintaining accurate availability information
Solution Approach 2:
The system performs preliminary detection and verification of content availability before users attempt to access content. By proactively checking whether content is actually available at given addresses and pre-processing this information, the system eliminates the need for users to waste time on unavailable content, thereby improving ease of content discovery while preserving accurate availability data
2Productivity
If content is presented in traditional formats, then users can access content, but traditional methods are resource-intensive and ineffective in presenting content in an engaging manner
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements partial action by selectively detecting and verifying only the most relevant content based on user context, location, and preferences rather than exhaustively checking all available content. This selective approach improves content access efficiency by focusing resources on high-priority content discovery while reducing overall system resource consumption compared to comprehensive content verification methods
3Ease of operation
If location-based content filtering is implemented, then users can find relevant content by location, but the system must process and filter vast amounts of location data
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments the content filtering process into distinct modules: location detection module, content matching module, and availability verification module. Each module handles a specific aspect of location-based filtering independently, reducing overall system complexity while maintaining ease of location-based content access. The segmentation allows each component to be optimized separately and improves manageability of the filtering system
Data Source
AI summary
An approach is provided for presenting a global view of content. A content mapping platform receives an access address of content, the content including location information. The content mapping platform then determines availability information of the content by causing, at least in part, detection of the content at the access address and causing, at least in part, presentation of the content on a user interface of a user device indicating the location information based on the availability information of the content.
