Live Streaming Interaction via Intelligent Hardware Control
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current live streaming interaction systems offer limited interaction forms, primarily relying on passive viewer participation through text or emoticons, which do not enhance user engagement or interaction richness.
Innovation Solution
Incorporating intelligent hardware connected to the anchor terminal, allowing viewer users to remotely control devices such as cameras, drones, or toys via their terminals, enriching interaction forms and improving engagement through dynamic control requests and responses.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If traditional text or emoticon interaction is used, then system simplicity is maintained, but interaction richness and user engagement deteriorate
Solution Approach 1:
The patent introduces intelligent hardware as an intermediary device between the viewer terminal and anchor terminal. The hardware controller receives control requests from the viewer terminal, manages the intelligent hardware device, and returns results to the anchor terminal. This intermediary architecture enables rich interactions (camera control, drone control, toy control) without requiring direct complex connections between all system components, thus resolving the contradiction between interaction richness and system complexity.
2Ease of operation
If viewer control over intelligent hardware is enabled, then user engagement and interaction richness are improved, but system security and control permission management become more complex
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements a feedback mechanism where the hardware controller receives control requests from the viewer terminal, executes them through the intelligent hardware device, and returns results to both the anchor terminal and viewer terminal. This closed-loop feedback system ensures that control actions are tracked and verified, maintaining security and reliability while enabling ease of operation. The anchor user receives feedback about hardware status and can manage permissions based on this information.
Data Source
AI summary
Embodiments of this application disclose a live streaming interaction system including: a server, an anchor terminal and at least one viewer terminal that have a first communication connection to the server, and intelligent hardware having a second communication connection to the anchor terminal. The server receives a first control request from the viewer terminal, generate a corresponding second control request, and sends the second control request to the anchor terminal. The anchor terminal forwards the second control request to the intelligent hardware. The intelligent hardware then performs a corresponding operation according to the second control request and returns live streaming data to the viewer terminal through the server. As such, the intelligent hardware can support a live streaming process between a user at the anchor terminal and a user at the viewer terminal that can remotely control the intelligent hardware by using the viewer terminal.
