Solution Overview

Problem

Current live streaming interaction methods are limited and inefficient, making it difficult for viewers to ask questions directly to streamers, especially in crowded environments, which affects user experience.

Innovation Solution

A method and apparatus that allows viewers to select question options from an interactive interface element, enabling one-click sending without manual input, and displays relevant resources or answers, enhancing interaction and resource discovery.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Ease of operation

If viewers manually input questions in live streaming rooms, then interaction capability is provided, but operation complexity increases and user experience deteriorates

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveease of asking questionsVSAvoidinteraction interface complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The question asking function is segmented into predefined question options (e.g., 'Is the price reasonable?', 'What is the material?', 'Do you have stock?'). Users only need to select from these segmented options rather than typing complete questions, dramatically simplifying the operation while maintaining interaction capability.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

Common questions are prepared in advance as predefined options. The system performs preliminary action by anticipating user needs and providing ready-made question templates, eliminating the need for users to manually compose questions and reducing operation complexity.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

2Productivity

If traditional interaction methods are used, then basic communication is enabled, but interaction efficiency decreases and user experience is affected

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveinteraction efficiencyVSAvoidtime for asking questions
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

Question options are prepared in advance based on common viewer inquiries. This preliminary action allows users to ask questions instantly by selection rather than composition, significantly improving interaction efficiency and reducing time loss.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

Instead of requiring users to create unique questions each time, the system uses copies of predefined question templates. Users can select and reuse these copied question options, dramatically speeding up the interaction process while maintaining meaningful communication.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #26Copying

3Ease of operation

If manual question input is required, then user expression freedom is maintained, but operation difficulty increases especially in crowded environments

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveease of question submissionVSAvoidenvironmental interference
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSObject-generated harmful factors

Solution Approach 1:

The interaction process is segmented into simple selection actions rather than complex typing operations. Users only need to tap or click on predefined question options, making the operation easy to perform even in crowded environments with limited input capability.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The system uses simple, lightweight interaction elements (button selections) that require minimal input effort. These disposable-like simple interactions can be quickly executed without requiring sustained manual input, making them suitable for crowded environments where quick, easy operations are needed.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #27Cheap short-living objects (Disposable)

AI summary

This application discloses a method and apparatus for live streaming interaction, a device, and a medium. A live streaming interface corresponding to a viewer side includes a first control. In response to a trigger operation of a user on the first control, a first interactive interface element is displayed, and the first interactive interface element displays at least one question option. In response to a selection operation triggered by the user for a first target question option from the at least one question option, the first target question option is sent to a live streaming room. Therefore, a question option to be asked may be selected from the first interactive interface element, and one-click sending is supported without manual input, thereby enhancing interaction experience.
