Solution Overview

Problem

Existing video production methods on terminals lack flexibility and variety, as they are limited to predefined natural scene themes, failing to meet diverse user requirements for video content creation.

Innovation Solution

A method and apparatus that allow users to set keywords including participants and events, determining specific photographing tasks and trigger conditions, prompting users to capture photos based on these conditions, and generating videos according to the captured images, enabling the creation of videos with various themes as per user preferences.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Ease of operation

If predefined natural scene themes are used for video production, then the operation is simple, but the video theme variety is limited

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveoperation simplicityVSAvoidvideo theme variety
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSAdaptability or versatility

Solution Approach 1:

The patent transforms the static predefined theme approach into a dynamic keyword-based system. Users can input keywords to generate customized photographing tasks, making the system adaptable to different themes while maintaining simple operation through automated task generation and video compilation.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

Solution Approach 2:

The system changes the fundamental parameter from fixed theme selection to flexible keyword input. By accepting user-defined keywords as input parameters, the system can generate diverse photographing tasks tailored to specific themes while keeping the operational interface simple and intuitive.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

2Adaptability or versatility

If user-defined keywords are accepted for photographing tasks, then the video theme variety increases, but the device complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvevideo theme varietyVSAvoidsystem complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs self-service by automatically generating photographing tasks from user keywords, executing the photographing process, and compiling the video without requiring complex user intervention. This automation reduces the perceived complexity for users while maintaining high theme variety.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

Solution Approach 2:

The patent creates a universal photographing task generation system that can handle multiple themes and scenarios through a single keyword-based interface. This multi-functional approach consolidates what would otherwise require multiple specialized applications into one unified system.

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

3Productivity

If automated photographing task generation is implemented, then the productivity increases, but the ease of operation decreases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvevideo production efficiencyVSAvoiduser operation simplicity
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The patent introduces keywords as an intermediary between user intent and automated task execution. This simple textual interface serves as a mediator that translates user requirements into structured photographing tasks, maintaining operational simplicity while enabling sophisticated automated processing.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)
