Solution Overview

Problem

Video publishers face uncertainty about their audience and struggle to provide personalized videos, requiring users to install multiple applications to obtain customized content, leading to a poor user experience.

Innovation Solution

A video acquisition and sharing method within a single application allows users to select and customize video preferences, enabling the creation and viewing of non-customized and customized videos without switching applications, using a video customization anchor to access a filling page for inputting preferences, and receiving a customized video response.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Ease of operation

If video publishers use a single application to provide both non-customized and customized videos, then user experience is improved and multiple installations are avoided, but the system complexity increases due to the need for video customization functionality

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveuser experienceVSAvoidsystem complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The video publishing system is designed to perform multiple functions within a single application: it can publish both non-customized videos and customized videos that are tailored to specific users. The publishing terminal device can receive customization information indicating a to-be-customized user and generate customized video content, thereby eliminating the need for users to install separate applications while maintaining system manageability through integrated functionality.

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

2Adaptability or versatility

If the system supports video customization for specific users, then video personalization is improved, but the complexity of video production and management increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvevideo personalizationVSAvoidvideo production complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs preliminary actions by receiving video customization information from the publishing terminal device before generating the customized video. This information includes identification of the to-be-customized user and their specific preferences. By preparing these customization parameters in advance, the system streamlines the video production process and reduces the complexity of on-demand customization.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The publishing terminal device automatically processes video customization based on received customization information, eliminating the need for manual intervention in the video production process. The system self-manages the generation of customized videos by matching content with user preferences, thereby reducing production complexity while maintaining high personalization capability.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

3Ease of operation

If users can access customized video content within the same application, then interaction between video providers and viewers is improved, but the difficulty of detecting and managing customization requests increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveinteraction convenienceVSAvoidcustomization request management
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSDifficulty of detecting and measuring

Solution Approach 1:

The system implements a feedback mechanism where the publishing terminal device receives customization information from video viewers and responds by generating and providing customized video content. This closed-loop feedback process automates the management of customization requests, making it easier to track and manage interactions between video providers and viewers while improving user convenience.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback
