Solution Overview

Problem

Existing live interaction systems experience delays in live stream transmission, leading to users being unable to timely confirm if their interaction instructions have been successfully sent, resulting in potential repeated sending of instructions and waste of interaction props.

Innovation Solution

A live interaction system that intercepts an image frame from the current live stream after receiving an interaction instruction, generates instant feedback information, and sends it to the client, allowing users to confirm successful sending of interaction props before the live stream is updated with the prop, thus reducing delays and prop waste.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If the system waits for the live stream to be updated with the interaction prop before providing feedback, then the live stream remains consistent and accurate, but the user experience deteriorates due to long delay times

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvelive stream consistencyVSAvoidfeedback delay time
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs preliminary action by generating the feedback image using the current live stream frame before the interaction prop is actually added to the live stream. This allows the feedback to be prepared in advance and sent to the user immediately, eliminating the waiting time while maintaining accuracy through subsequent verification steps.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The system introduces an intermediary verification mechanism where a second feedback image is generated after the live stream is updated with the interaction prop. This second image serves as verification to confirm the prop was successfully added, mediating between the need for immediate feedback and the need for accuracy.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

2Reliability

If the system sends interaction instructions frequently to ensure successful delivery, then the reliability of interaction delivery improves, but the waste of interaction props increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveinteraction delivery confirmationVSAvoidinteraction prop waste
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSLoss of substance

Solution Approach 1:

The system implements immediate feedback by sending the generated feedback image to the user as soon as it is created. This real-time feedback allows users to confirm whether their interaction instruction was successfully received and processed, eliminating the need for repeated sending and preventing prop waste.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

3Productivity

If the system generates feedback using the live stream frame before interaction prop addition, then the feedback is provided instantly, but the feedback may not reflect the actual updated live stream

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvefeedback generation speedVSAvoidfeedback accuracy
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSMeasurement precision

Solution Approach 1:

The system generates the first feedback image using the current live stream frame before the interaction prop is added, providing immediate feedback to the user. This preliminary action ensures fast response while maintaining accuracy through the subsequent verification step with the second feedback image.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

A second feedback image is generated after the live stream is updated with the interaction prop to serve as an intermediary verification step. This second image confirms that the prop was successfully added to the live stream, ensuring accuracy while the first image provides immediate feedback.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)
