Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing online platform services lack efficient methods to authenticate user affiliations based on location and search information within map applications, limiting personalized and relevant service offerings.
Innovation Solution
A method and system that utilize a server and user terminal to transmit graphic representations and processes for affiliation authentication, leveraging search and location information from map applications to offer personalized services and benefits to users.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If map application data is integrated with user authentication process, then personalized services and benefits are enabled, but system complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent introduces a server as an intermediary component that mediates between the map application and the authentication system. The server receives location information and search information from the map application, determines authentication types based on this data, and manages the authentication process. This intermediary approach enables personalized services without requiring direct complex integration between the map application and authentication systems, thus resolving the technical contradiction.
2Ease of operation
If affiliation authentication is requested based on location and search information, then user experience is enhanced, but authentication process complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs preliminary actions by collecting and analyzing location information and search information from the map application before initiating the authentication process. The server determines the authentication type in advance based on this pre-collected data, so when authentication is requested, the process is already streamlined. This preliminary analysis enhances user experience by making the authentication process appear simpler and more context-aware.
3Measurement precision
If map application data is used to determine authentication type, then targeted authentication is achieved, but data processing requirements increase
Solution Approach 1:
The patent extracts only the essential and relevant features from the map application data - specifically location information and search information - to determine the authentication type. Rather than processing all available data from the map application, the system selectively extracts the key elements needed for authentication determination. This extraction approach achieves targeted authentication while minimizing data processing requirements.
Data Source
AI summary
A server providing a service is provided. The server includes a communicator, a memory configured to store computer-executable instructions, and a processor configured to execute the instructions by accessing the memory. The instructions may be configured to cause the server to transmit, to a user terminal, a display command of a graphic representation requesting affiliation authentication from a user based on at least one of search information of the user or location information of the user collected from the user terminal executing a map application and to transmit an offer command of a process for affiliation authentication of a user account to the user terminal in response to a user input for a graphic representation requesting the affiliation authentication.
