Solution Overview

Problem

Current systems and methods fail to provide universal solutions for recording, uploading, processing, and viewing video and audio content across various HTML frameworks and computing devices, particularly lacking cross-platform utilization and uniform approaches for interactive video commenting within web pages and advertisements.

Innovation Solution

The system enables user-generated video content recording, playback, and submission directly into an HTML framework, utilizing a processor to create a video recording interface, access video and audio hardware, and transmit data to a video server for playback, while incorporating moderation tools to ensure content approval.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Ease of operation

If video and audio recording functionality is integrated into HTML frameworks for cross-platform web access, then ease of operation and cross-platform utilization are improved, but device complexity and implementation difficulty increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecross-platform utilizationVSAvoidimplementation complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent implements a universal video recording system that functions across multiple web browsers and computing devices through HTML framework integration. The system uses standardized web APIs (MediaRecorder, Canvas, Blob) that are supported across different platforms, allowing the same code to record and process video on desktops, tablets, and smartphones without requiring platform-specific implementations.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)

Solution Approach 2:

The patent introduces an intermediary processing layer that captures video frames from the camera hardware through the browser's MediaStream API, processes them through a Canvas element, and outputs them as Blob objects. This intermediary layer abstracts the complexity of direct hardware access and provides a standardized interface that works across different browsers and devices, reducing implementation difficulty.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

2Loss of time

If video recording and processing is performed directly in the browser through HTML framework, then loss of time for upload and processing is reduced, but use of energy and computational resources at the user device increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvevideo processing timeVSAvoiddevice energy consumption
Core Design Contradiction:
Loss of timeVSUse of energy by moving object

Solution Approach 1:

The patent performs preliminary video processing actions directly in the browser before upload, including frame capture, canvas rendering, and Blob creation. By preprocessing the video data locally and converting it to a standardized format beforehand, the system reduces the time required for server-side processing and minimizes the need for repeated data transfers, thereby reducing overall processing time despite increased local computational effort.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action
