Solution Overview

Problem

Existing video playback interfaces do not effectively manage the transition from video playback to additional information related to the video content, often resulting in a disjointed user experience with poor visual effects.

Innovation Solution

A method and apparatus for displaying a fusion interface that combines the video playback area with a target area containing additional information, where the target area appears from a preset position and moves in a preset direction, maintaining the video in a playing state throughout the transition.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If a traditional video playback interface is used, then the video can be played smoothly, but the transition to additional information is disjointed and visual effects are poor

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvevideo playback continuityVSAvoidtransition smoothness
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The patent merges the video playback area with the additional information area into a unified fusion interface. The video area and information area are displayed simultaneously in a split-screen layout, allowing users to view both the continuing video playback and related information without switching interfaces, thereby achieving smooth transition while maintaining video continuity.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

Solution Approach 2:

The patent implements dynamic area adjustment where the video area and information area can dynamically change their display proportions. Users can drag the division line to adjust the size of each area according to their needs, and the system dynamically recalculates and redistributes the display space, making the interface adaptable and smooth in transitions.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

2Loss of information

If the interface switches from video playback to additional information, then more information can be displayed, but the visual continuity is broken and jumping sensation occurs

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveinformation completenessVSAvoidvisual continuity
Core Design Contradiction:
Loss of informationVSStability of the object's composition

Solution Approach 1:

The patent combines the video playback function and information display function into a single fusion interface. Both the video area and information area are presented simultaneously, eliminating the need to switch between separate interfaces. This allows users to access complete information while the video continues to play, maintaining visual continuity without jumping sensations.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

Solution Approach 2:

The patent ensures continuous video playback while displaying additional information. The video continues to play in the video area without interruption, and the information is displayed in the information area simultaneously. This continuous action approach maintains visual stability and avoids broken transitions.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #20Continuity of useful action

3Ease of operation

If a fusion interface is created combining video and information areas, then user experience is enhanced, but the interface complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveuser experienceVSAvoidinterface structure
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent segments the display area into distinct video area and information area with a clear division line. This segmentation allows each area to independently display its content while maintaining an overall unified interface structure. The modular design simplifies the implementation of complex functionality by breaking it down into manageable segments.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The patent implements dynamic area adjustment where users can drag the division line to change the proportion of video area and information area. The system dynamically recalculates the display parameters and redistributes the space in real-time. This dynamic mechanism provides flexible user control while maintaining interface simplicity through intuitive interaction.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

AI summary

A interface display method. The method comprises: receiving a trigger operation which acts on a preset control, wherein the preset control is displayed in a playing interface of a target video, and the playing interface is used for playing a target picture at an initial position; in response to the trigger operation, acquiring a target area associated with the preset control; and displaying a fusion interface of the target area and the target picture of the target video, wherein the target picture is kept in a playing state.
