Live Streaming Gift Merging for Richer User Interaction
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing live streaming technologies lack richness and interactivity in user interactions, particularly in virtual resource gifting, failing to satisfy user engagement requirements.
Innovation Solution
A method and apparatus for live streaming interaction that allows users to merge virtual resources with mergable identifiers, enabling the creation of new virtual resources through user selection and combination, which are then displayed and gifted to streamers, along with enhanced dialog features.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If users can only send individual virtual resources as gifts, then the system is simple to operate, but the interaction lacks richness and interactivity
Solution Approach 1:
The patent enables multiple virtual resources to be merged into a single composite gift through the merger module. Users can combine different virtual resources (e.g., flowers, hearts, stars) to create unique merged gifts, transforming individual simple resources into complex interactive offerings. This merging mechanism directly enhances interaction richness while maintaining operational simplicity through automated processing.
Solution Approach 2:
The system pre-generates multiple types of virtual resources with defined attributes and merging rules before user interaction. The resource library contains pre-configured virtual resources that can be combined, and the merger module is pre-configured with merging logic. This preliminary preparation enables rich interactions without requiring complex real-time processing during gifting operations.
2Productivity
If the system supports merging multiple virtual resources, then user engagement increases, but the processing complexity and time increase
Solution Approach 1:
The system pre-configures virtual resources with merging attributes and rules in advance. The merger module contains pre-defined logic for combining resources, eliminating the need for complex real-time calculations. This preliminary preparation allows rapid processing of merged gifts while maintaining high user engagement through diverse gifting options.
Solution Approach 2:
The merging process is automated through the merger module, which automatically combines selected virtual resources according to pre-defined rules without requiring manual intervention. The system self-manages the complexity of resource merging, attribute consolidation, and gift generation, reducing processing time while enabling sophisticated multi-resource combinations.
3Adaptability or versatility
If virtual resources have mergable identifiers, then resource combination is enabled, but the system complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The merger module serves multiple functions: it identifies mergeable resources through mergable identifiers, retrieves corresponding virtual resources from the library, performs the merging operation, and generates the composite gift. This multi-functional design consolidates what could be separate complex systems into a single unified module, enabling resource combinability without proportionally increasing overall system complexity.
Solution Approach 2:
The system uses mergable identifiers as key parameters to determine resource combinability. By changing the state or presence of this identifier parameter, the system dynamically enables or disables merging capabilities for specific virtual resources. This parameter-based approach provides flexible resource combinability without requiring complex structural changes to the system architecture.

AI summary
Embodiments of the present disclosure involve a method, an apparatus, a device, and a medium for live streaming interaction. The method comprises: displaying a first virtual resource comprising a mergable identifier on a live streaming interface, wherein the first virtual resource is sent from a first user to a streamer user; displaying, in response to a triggering operation of a second user for the first virtual resource, at least one resource to be merged corresponding to the first virtual resource; acquiring, in response to a selection operation of the second user for a second virtual resource of the at least one resource to be merged, a merged resource of the first virtual resource and the second virtual resource; sending the merged resource to the streamer user, and displaying the merged resource and a merged identifier on the live streaming interface.
