Live Distribution Device for Music Performance Preview
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Users deciding whether to view a live distribution of a musical performance lack information about the actual experience inside the live venue, including the performance and atmosphere, before making a decision.
Innovation Solution
A live distribution device and method that obtain and process music and user reactions from viewing users, generating data indicating how the performance is experienced, which is then distributed to non-viewing users, allowing them to preview the atmosphere and performance through filtered sound and image signals.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Loss of information
If users are provided with full access to live venue atmosphere and performance data before viewing, then user decision-making is improved, but information privacy and data security deteriorate
Solution Approach 1:
The system creates processed copies of the original performance and atmosphere data. Instead of transmitting raw user reaction data and detailed performance information, the system generates processed data that captures essential characteristics (excitement level, performance quality indicators) while preserving data security and user privacy. This allows non-viewing users to receive informative previews without exposing sensitive raw data.
Solution Approach 2:
The live distribution device acts as an intermediary between the live venue environment and non-viewing users. It collects raw data from viewing users and performance sources, processes this data through analysis circuits, and delivers transformed information to non-viewing users. This intermediary role enables information sharing while maintaining data security boundaries.
2Productivity
If processed data is generated and distributed to non-viewing users, then user engagement and interest are improved, but system complexity and processing requirements worsen
Solution Approach 1:
The data processing function is segmented into distinct operational modules within the live distribution device. The obtaining circuit collects data, the analysis circuit processes it, and the distribution circuit delivers results. This segmentation allows the system to handle complex processing tasks through specialized sub-functions, making the overall complexity manageable and maintainable while still achieving high user engagement through rich processed data.

AI summary
A live distribution device includes an obtaining circuit, a data processing circuit, and a distribution circuit. The obtaining circuit is configured to obtain a piece of music and/or a user reaction to the piece of music. The user reaction is obtained from a viewing user, among a plurality of users, who is viewing a performance. The data processing circuit is configured to generate processed data based on the piece of music and/or the user reaction obtained by the obtaining circuit. The processed data indicates how the performance is viewed by the viewing user. The distribution circuit is configured to distribute the generated processed data to a terminal device of a non-viewing user, among the plurality of users, who is not viewing the performance.
