Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If the video display region is fixed and displays the complete target video, then the video playback function is simple and reliable, but the visual effect is monotonous and user experience is poor

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvevisual effectVSAvoidvideo processing complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent divides the video display region into multiple candidate display regions (first display region, second display region, etc.) and splits the target video into corresponding video blocks. This segmentation allows the system to selectively display different video blocks in different candidate display regions, creating varied visual effects while maintaining manageable processing complexity through structured division.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The patent implements dynamic switching between different display configurations. The video block determination unit can select different video blocks from the video block set based on interaction types, and the display region can dynamically change between candidate display regions. This dynamic adjustment enriches visual effects without requiring complete system redesign.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

2Ease of operation

If the video is displayed in a fixed display region, then the playback system is simple and reliable, but the user interaction experience is monotonous

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveuser interaction experienceVSAvoidvideo processing complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent segments the video content into multiple video blocks and the display region into multiple candidate display regions. This segmentation enables selective display of different video blocks in different regions based on user interaction types, enhancing ease of operation through diversified display options while keeping processing complexity manageable through structured organization.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The patent creates a universal video processing framework that handles multiple interaction types (first interaction type, second interaction type, etc.) through a unified structure. The same video block set can serve multiple purposes across different candidate display regions and interaction scenarios, improving versatility without proportionally increasing complexity.

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

3Adaptability or versatility

If multiple video blocks are created from splitting the target video, then the visual effect and user interaction are enhanced, but the processing complexity and computational resources increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedisplay region flexibilityVSAvoidvideo processing complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent divides the target video into a video block set where each video block corresponds to a specific candidate display region. This segmentation strategy enables flexible display region adjustment and multiple interaction types while managing processing complexity through organized, region-specific video blocks rather than processing entire video frames repeatedly.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The patent performs preliminary splitting of the target video into video blocks and identification of candidate display regions before actual playback. This preliminary action prepares the video content in advance, allowing rapid switching between different display configurations during playback without real-time processing overhead, thus enhancing flexibility while controlling processing complexity.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

AI summary

A video processing method and apparatus, and a device are provided. The method includes: obtaining a target video; splitting the target video, based on a display position of the target video, within a video display region to obtain a video block set, wherein the video block set includes a target number of first video blocks; determining the second video block from the video block set according to a video interaction type, wherein the second video block is displayed in a starting display region; determining a target display region from a region set to be displayed, wherein the region set to be displayed includes at least one region to be displayed, and the region to be displayed belongs to the video display region and is a minimum unit of a display region for displaying the second video block; and displaying the second video block within the target display region.
