Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Live commentary at game events is limited, failing to fully engage audiences and achieve the event's purpose due to the lack of dynamic information integration with game video.
Innovation Solution
A video generation system comprising a game device, processing device, and display device that composites various types of information with game video, including vital signs and commentator commentary, to enhance live commentary quality.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If game video is displayed directly on a large-screen monitor with live commentary, then the event can be held with simple equipment, but the commentary quality and audience engagement are limited
Solution Approach 1:
The system divides the commentary enhancement function into separate modular components: a processing device that receives and processes game data, a generation device that creates commentary content, and a compositing function that integrates content with video. This segmentation allows improved commentary quality without requiring complete system replacement, thus managing complexity while enhancing operation quality.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent introduces a processing device and generation device as intermediary components between the game device and display device. These intermediaries process game data and generate commentary content, enabling enhanced commentary quality without directly modifying the core game system or display hardware, thus balancing quality improvement with acceptable system complexity.
2Loss of information
If multiple types of information are composited with game video to enhance commentary, then audience engagement improves, but the processing complexity and time increase
Solution Approach 1:
The generation device creates commentary content by processing game data in advance or in parallel with video generation, rather than adding all information processing steps after video capture. This preliminary action reduces the critical path processing time while maintaining information richness in the final composited output.
Solution Approach 2:
The system continuously processes game data and generates commentary content in real-time synchronization with the game video stream. This continuous processing ensures that information-rich commentary is available without significant delays, maintaining both information richness and acceptable processing time through optimized real-time operations.
3Manufacturing precision
If game data is processed into predetermined format and composited with video, then commentary content quality improves, but the device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The processing device and generation device are designed with multi-functional capabilities that handle various game data types and formats through standardized processing pipelines. This universality enables precise content integration across different game sources without requiring separate specialized devices for each function, thus improving integration precision while controlling overall device complexity.

AI summary
It is an object of the present invention to be able to add various kinds of information about the progress of a game as commentary content to the display of game video, and to improve the quality of live commentary in an event. The system comprises a game device that outputs game data indicating the state of a game and game video according to the progress of the game; a processing device that receives the game data and processes it into a predetermined format; a generation device that acquires processed or unprocessed game data from the processing device and generates content to be composited with the game video; and a display device that displays video obtained by compositing the content with the game video.
