Solution Overview

Problem

Existing live broadcast platforms fail to effectively display live broadcast rooms where performances are currently in progress, leading to user inefficiency in finding active performances.

Innovation Solution

A method and apparatus that acquire live broadcast screenshots, input them into an image detection model to identify active performances, and add display identifiers to corresponding rooms, allowing timely and effective display of ongoing performances in a user-friendly interface.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Ease of operation

If live broadcast rooms are arranged and displayed according to popularity values or the number of viewers, then the display follows conventional sorting methods, but users cannot timely find live broadcast rooms where performances are currently in progress

Engineering Contradiction:
ImproveUser ability to find active performancesVSAvoidInformation about ongoing performances
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSLoss of information

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies visual identification markers (such as icons, labels, or color-coded indicators) to live broadcast room thumbnails to indicate whether a performance is currently in progress. This visual differentiation allows users to quickly identify active performances without having to manually check each room, thereby improving ease of operation while preserving information about ongoing performances.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #32Color changes

Solution Approach 2:

The patent segments the display information by separating the indication of performance status from the general sorting by popularity. By adding a specific visual marker for performance status alongside the conventional popularity-based arrangement, the system provides both sorting functions simultaneously, allowing users to efficiently locate active performances while maintaining the benefits of popularity-based organization.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

2Productivity

If conventional display methods are used without performance status identification, then the display interface remains simple, but users experience inefficiency in finding active performances

Engineering Contradiction:
ImproveUser efficiency in finding performancesVSAvoidDisplay interface complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent introduces visual identification markers (icons, labels, or color indicators) on live broadcast room thumbnails to indicate performance status. These markers are integrated into the existing display interface without fundamentally changing its structure, thus improving user efficiency while maintaining interface simplicity and avoiding excessive complexity.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #32Color changes

Solution Approach 2:

The patent uses thumbnail copies or simplified visual representations of live broadcast rooms with added performance status indicators. Rather than creating a completely new complex interface, the system enhances the existing thumbnail display by overlaying or attaching performance status information, thereby improving productivity while keeping device complexity low.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #26Copying
