Immersive Content Segmentation for Personalized Multi-Participant Recording
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing systems in immersive environments restrict users to personalize content based on their own perspective only, failing to consider the perspectives of other participants, which limits the personalization capabilities in multi-user scenarios.
Innovation Solution
A method and processing unit that segments content during live rendering based on displayed objects, selects a first perspective for each segment considering contextual data, user preferences, and behaviors, and records this perspective to create a personalized version, allowing real-time recommendations and sharing/download options.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If the system records content based on a single user's perspective, then the personalization is simple and focused, but the recording cannot capture multi-user interactions and contextual conversations
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments the immersive content into multiple independent segments based on spatial regions or objects of interest. Each segment can be independently processed and associated with different user perspectives, allowing the system to capture multi-user interactions without overwhelming complexity in a single recording stream
Solution Approach 2:
The system transitions from recording a single perspective to recording multiple perspectives simultaneously by adding a dimensional layer that tracks which users are viewing which segments. This enables the recording to capture contextual conversations and interactions between multiple users while maintaining manageable system architecture through structured data organization
2Loss of information
If the system considers multiple participant perspectives for personalization, then the recording becomes more comprehensive and contextual, but the processing complexity and computational requirements increase
Solution Approach 1:
By dividing the immersive content into discrete segments, the system can process each segment independently and associate it with specific user perspectives. This segmentation reduces the processing complexity compared to handling the entire immersive scene as a single unit while preserving all contextual information across multiple viewpoints
Solution Approach 2:
The system creates multiple copies of the content segments, each corresponding to a different user perspective. These copies are then processed and stored separately, allowing the system to retain comprehensive contextual information about what each user saw and heard without requiring complex real-time processing of all perspectives simultaneously
3Ease of operation
If the system provides real-time recommendations for content segments, then user engagement and personalization improve, but the system responsiveness and real-time processing requirements increase
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs preliminary processing of content segments and pre-computes recommendations based on user profiles and historical data before the actual viewing event. This allows the system to respond quickly during real-time interaction, as the heavy computational work has already been done in advance, maintaining both high user engagement and fast real-time responsiveness

AI summary
The present invention discloses to enable personalized recording of content in an immersive environment. The method includes segmenting content at instances during live rendering of the content in immersive environment with participants, to obtain segments of content for each instant amongst the instances. The content is segmented based on categories of displayed objects. Further, first perspective of participant is selected for each segment at an instant. The first perspective is selected based on at least one of contextual data, preference of a user, behavior and inputs. Further, the first perspective of segments is recorded during the live rendering. Upon end of the live rendering, the personalized recorded version of the content is created for the user using the first perspective of the plurality of segments.
