Interactive Graphical Elements in Streamed Video
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Conventional content streaming systems lack flexibility, adaptability, and scalability, as they inflexibly manage viewer inputs and fail to efficiently present interactive graphical elements, leading to rigid user interactions and inefficient visualization of collective viewer inputs.
Innovation Solution
The system generates and configures a digital stream with interactive graphical elements that can be adjusted by viewer inputs, aggregates these inputs, and presents them in a concise graphic visualization, allowing for flexible user interactions and improved scalability.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Loss of information
If conventional content streaming systems present all viewer inputs individually, then complete information is provided, but navigation complexity increases and scalability deteriorates for large numbers of viewers
Solution Approach 1:
The patent combines multiple individual viewer inputs into aggregated visual summaries. Instead of displaying each viewer's input separately, the system merges similar inputs together and presents them as consolidated visual representations, reducing navigation complexity while preserving the essential information from all viewer interactions.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent introduces visual dimensions (spatial positioning, size, color intensity) to represent viewer inputs. By mapping input frequency and type to visual attributes like the size or position of graphical elements, the system transforms numerical data into an intuitive visual landscape that can be comprehended at a glance without requiring sequential navigation through individual inputs.
2Device complexity
If conventional content streaming systems provide fixed interaction interfaces, then system complexity is reduced, but adaptability to different content types and user needs deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements dynamic interaction interfaces that automatically adjust based on the video content being streamed. The system modifies available graphical elements, their positions, and interaction options in real-time according to the current video context, enabling the same base interface to adapt to different content types without requiring complex custom interfaces for each scenario.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent changes interface parameters (such as the types of graphical elements displayed, their visual attributes, and interaction modes) based on the video content characteristics. By dynamically adjusting these parameters rather than the fundamental interface structure, the system achieves content adaptability while maintaining relatively simple system architecture.
3Measurement precision
If conventional content streaming systems display detailed individual viewer inputs, then measurement precision is improved, but visualization efficiency and scalability worsen for large audiences
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies local quality by providing different levels of input detail in different visual regions or contexts. The aggregated visual summary provides a high-level overview for quick comprehension, while allowing users to drill down into specific local areas or time periods to view detailed individual inputs when needed, thus balancing overview efficiency with detailed accuracy.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent presents a partial representation of viewer inputs in the aggregated visual summary, showing the most significant patterns and trends rather than every individual input. This partial action approach provides sufficient information for understanding overall viewer engagement while maintaining visualization efficiency, with the option to access complete detailed data when necessary.

AI summary
The present disclosure relates to method, systems, and non-transitory computer-readable media for generating and configuring a digital stream of video content from a stream-transmitting computing device to include interactive graphical elements that are adjustable by viewer computing devices participating in the digital stream. For example, in one or more embodiments, the disclosed systems receive user input from the stream-transmitting computing device that identifies visual attributes of a graphical element that are adjustable via viewer inputs. In one or more embodiments, the disclosed systems provide the graphical elements within the video content and collect the viewer inputs that adjust the graphical element in accordance with the identified visual attributes. Further, the disclosed systems aggregate and visualize the collected viewer inputs in a graphical presentation.
