Solution Overview

Problem

Existing image editing software requires users to individually search for and apply templates and perform separate operations for each image, making the process time-consuming and inefficient when editing multiple images.

Innovation Solution

A multimedia processing method that allows users to select a template with multiple image sub-templates, assign original images to these sub-templates, and display preview effects with editing controls, enabling simultaneous editing of multiple images with enhanced efficiency.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Productivity

If users individually search for and apply templates to each image separately, then each image can be edited with appropriate templates, but the editing process becomes time-consuming and inefficient

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveimage editing efficiencyVSAvoidtime for template selection and editing
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The template is divided into multiple image sub-templates, each capable of independently editing different images. When a user selects a template, all its sub-templates are automatically applied to corresponding images in batch, eliminating the need to individually search and apply templates to each image separately.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

Multiple image sub-templates with similar editing characteristics are merged into a single template structure. This allows users to edit multiple images simultaneously using one template selection, combining what would otherwise require separate template applications into a unified batch operation.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

2Ease of operation

If users perform separate operations for each image including export and template adjustment, then each image can be processed individually, but the overall process complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveconvenience of image editing operationsVSAvoidnumber of separate editing operations
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The template structure is designed to perform multiple functions simultaneously - it can edit multiple different images, apply consistent template adjustments across all images, and manage export operations for all images in a single unified process, rather than requiring separate operations for each image.

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

Solution Approach 2:

The system performs preliminary assignment of original images to image sub-templates based on arrangement order and editing capacity. This pre-assignment automates the matching process between images and templates, eliminating the need for users to manually perform template adjustment operations for each image separately.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

3Productivity

If a template includes multiple image sub-templates for batch editing, then editing efficiency improves, but the template structure and image assignment becomes more complex

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvebatch image editing capabilityVSAvoidtemplate structure complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The template is segmented into multiple independent image sub-templates, each with defined editing capabilities. This segmentation allows the system to automatically assign original images to appropriate sub-templates based on arrangement order and editing capacity, managing complexity through structured division rather than monolithic design.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The system changes the parameter of template structure from a single unified template to multiple parameterized image sub-templates, where each sub-template has specific editing capacity and arrangement order parameters. This parameterization enables automated image assignment and batch processing while maintaining manageable structural complexity.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes
