Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If traditional live streaming interaction functions are used, then the system is simple and easy to operate, but user engagement and interaction richness are insufficient

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveinteraction modesVSAvoidsystem complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent uses portrait cutout technology to create a virtual copy of the host that can be placed in various scenarios. This copy interacts with captured images or videos to create duet content, enabling rich interaction modes without requiring the actual host to be physically present in multiple locations simultaneously.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #26Copying

Solution Approach 2:

The system introduces an intermediary processing layer that combines the host portrait cutout with user-captured multimedia content. This intermediary mechanism facilitates interaction by automatically合成 (synthesizing) the two elements, reducing the complexity burden on users while enriching interaction possibilities.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

2Adaptability or versatility

If a duet function with portrait cutout and multimedia synthesis is added, then interaction richness is improved, but processing complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveinteraction functionsVSAvoidprocessing complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The system segments the interaction process into distinct modules: portrait cutout extraction, multimedia capture, synthesis processing, and result display. This segmentation allows each module to be optimized independently and processed through dedicated APIs, reducing overall processing complexity while maintaining rich interaction functions.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The host portrait cutout is extracted and prepared in advance before the actual interaction occurs. This preliminary action allows the system to have the processed portrait ready for quick synthesis with user-captured content, reducing real-time processing complexity when users initiate duet interactions.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

3Loss of time

If real-time camera capture and synthesis are implemented, then user feedback is immediate, but processing time and resources increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvefeedback delayVSAvoidprocessing resources
Core Design Contradiction:
Loss of timeVSUse of energy by moving object

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs synthesis processing on a partial basis - only processing the specific regions where the portrait cutout and captured content need to be combined, rather than processing entire frames. This selective processing reduces computational resources while maintaining real-time feedback capability.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #16Partial or excessive action

Solution Approach 2:

The system uses the device's own camera and processing capabilities to capture and synthesize content locally, without requiring extensive external processing resources. This self-service approach minimizes resource consumption while providing immediate feedback to users.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service
