Live Poll Integration in Video Presentations
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Conventional communication systems fail to create an engaging shared user experience by lacking the ability to provide effective feedback and interaction between senders and recipients, leading to disconnection as the audience size grows, with recipient feedback often being ignored or difficult for senders to gauge.
Innovation Solution
A video presentation system that allows broadcasting users to create and integrate live polls with video streams, enabling viewing users to respond in real-time, providing organized and concise feedback to both broadcasters and viewers, thus enhancing engagement and interaction.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Loss of information
If conventional systems allow recipient users to individually react to a sender user's communication, then user feedback channels are provided, but the audience reactions appear unorganized and difficult for the sender user to gauge
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments audience feedback into organized categories (e.g., poll responses, reactions, comments) rather than presenting all feedback as a single unorganized stream. This segmentation allows the sender user to gauge audience reactions more effectively by viewing structured, categorized feedback instead of losing information in the noise of individual responses.
2Ease of operation
If conventional systems enable turn-by-turn interaction between sender and recipient users, then individual communication responses are possible, but the sender user becomes disconnected from the audience as the number of recipient users grows
Solution Approach 1:
The patent introduces an intermediary feedback aggregation mechanism that mediates between individual recipient user responses and the sender user. This intermediary organizes and consolidates audience reactions into a comprehensible format, maintaining the sender-audience connection even as the audience size grows, rather than allowing direct but disconnected turn-by-turn interactions.
3Adaptability or versatility
If conventional systems provide communication tools for recipient users to respond to posted messages, then user engagement is enabled, but recipient users feel like outsiders looking into a discrete life moment of the sender user
Solution Approach 1:
The patent merges the sender user's content sharing experience with structured audience feedback mechanisms into a unified shared experience. By combining poll responses, reactions, and organized comments that appear alongside the sender's content, the system creates a shared user experience where recipient users feel connected to the sender's moment rather than observing from outside as isolated individuals.

AI summary
The present disclosure is directed toward systems and methods for providing a live poll with a video presentation. In particular, the systems and methods described herein provide a video stream received from a broadcaster client device to one or more viewer client devices. Additionally, the systems and methods described herein provide a live poll to the one or more viewer client devices together with the video stream. The systems and methods receive poll responses from the one or more viewer client devices, compile poll results based on the received responses, and provide the poll responses to the broadcaster client device and the one or more viewer client devices.
