Solution Overview

Problem

Existing image generation technologies for video applications are limited by the lack of diversity and quality in effect objects, leading to single and unimpressive display effects, which negatively impact user experience.

Innovation Solution

An image generation method that determines a reference trunk direction and extension information based on initial points, target offsets, and parameters to randomly generate effect images, such as snowflakes or branches, enhancing pattern diversity and efficiency.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If random generation parameters are introduced to improve pattern diversity, then the display effect quality is improved, but the generation complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvepattern diversityVSAvoidgeneration complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies parameter changes by introducing multiple random generation parameters (target offset, reference trunk direction, extension position, target extension direction) to transform the effect object generation process. These parameters modify the structural characteristics of the effect image, enabling diverse pattern generation while maintaining a systematic approach to complexity management.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

Solution Approach 2:

The patent implements dynamics by making the effect object generation process adaptive and variable rather than static. The random generation parameters allow the system to dynamically adjust the structure, direction, and extension of effect objects, creating diverse patterns that adapt to different generation conditions while following consistent procedural rules.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

2Manufacturing precision

If multiple generation parameters are used to enhance effect image quality, then the display effect is improved, but the processing time increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveeffect image qualityVSAvoidgeneration time
Core Design Contradiction:
Manufacturing precisionVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies preliminary action by pre-establishing the generation framework and parameter relationships before actual effect image creation. The system pre-defines how target offset, reference trunk direction, and extension parameters interact, allowing rapid generation once parameters are set, thus reducing actual processing time while maintaining high quality output.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action
