Solution Overview
Problem
Modern image processing systems face challenges in accommodating large high-definition video frames due to the complexity and size of their data processing nodes, leading to readability issues and inefficiencies in editing and real-time parameter adjustments.
Innovation Solution
The implementation of a method that allows for intuitive identification and selection of data processing nodes within a hierarchical structure, enabling users to navigate and edit image components more efficiently by simplifying the process of selecting and modifying nodes, even in complex structures with hundreds or thousands of nodes.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Manufacturing precision
If the resolution and number of components in image frames are increased to achieve high definition quality, then the image quality is improved, but the complexity and size of the data processing node structure grows, making it difficult to display and edit
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments the complex data processing node structure into a hierarchical organization with multiple levels. The display system divides the thousands of nodes into manageable groups and levels, allowing users to view and edit specific portions of the structure without being overwhelmed by the entire complexity. This segmentation enables high-definition image processing while maintaining editability through selective visualization of hierarchical levels.
2Adaptability or versatility
If all data processing nodes are displayed to allow comprehensive editing, then editing completeness is improved, but the readability and usability of the interface deteriorates due to the overwhelming number of nodes
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements a dynamic display system that adapts the visualization of data processing nodes based on user interaction and current editing context. The interface can dynamically expand or collapse hierarchical levels, showing only relevant nodes at any given time. This dynamic behavior maintains editing completeness by allowing access to all nodes while preserving interface readability through context-aware selective display.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent adds hierarchical dimensionality to the display of data processing nodes. Instead of presenting all nodes in a single flat dimension that overwhelms the interface, the system organizes nodes across multiple hierarchical levels and dimensions. Users can navigate through these dimensions to access different portions of the node structure, maintaining both comprehensive editing capability and interface readability through multi-dimensional organization.
3Adaptability or versatility
If real-time parameter adjustment is enabled for aesthetic improvement, then creative flexibility is improved, but the processing time and computational resources increase
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements preliminary action by pre-calculating and caching rendering results for data processing nodes. When users adjust parameters in real-time for aesthetic improvement, the system can quickly retrieve pre-computed values and make incremental adjustments rather than performing complete recalculations. This approach maintains creative flexibility for real-time editing while significantly reducing processing time through advance preparation of computational results.
