Solution Overview

Problem

Consumers lack effective ways to produce and transmit personalized media content, such as customized memes or viral content, and cannot indicate authorship or relationship with such content.

Innovation Solution

A method and system for integrating media content creation with NFT-based distribution, allowing for secure and personalized media content transmission and storage using NFT-based wallet containers, which includes modifying a customizable region of a media object into a customized media object, generating an NFT with identifiers, registering the card object to a user account via a blockchain, and linking it with a wallet object.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If traditional media content distribution is used, then media content can be transmitted, but consumers cannot indicate authorship or relationship with viral content

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveauthorship indicationVSAvoidcontent customization capability
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSAdaptability or versatility

Solution Approach 1:

The patent creates a digital copy of the media content and attaches an NFT to it. The NFT serves as a unique identifier and proof of authorship/ownership that can be transferred with the content copy. This allows consumers to indicate authorship and relationship with viral content while maintaining the ability to customize and distribute the content.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #26Copying

Solution Approach 2:

The NFT acts as an intermediary between the media content and the consumer. It provides a mechanism for indicating authorship and relationship without requiring direct modification of the media content itself. The NFT mediates the connection between the content creator and the distributor, enabling both authorship indication and content customization.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

2Reliability

If NFT-based distribution is integrated with media content creation, then secure and personalized transmission is achieved, but device complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvesecure transmissionVSAvoidNFT integration complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent segments the media content into distinct components: the media content itself, the NFT (which contains metadata about authorship and ownership), and the wallet container (which stores and manages the NFT). This segmentation allows each component to be handled independently, reducing the overall complexity of integration while maintaining secure transmission.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The NFT serves multiple functions simultaneously: it acts as a certificate of authorship, a proof of ownership, a transfer mechanism, and a link to the media content. By consolidating these multiple functions into a single token, the patent reduces the complexity that would otherwise require separate systems for each function.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)

3Adaptability or versatility

If media content is customized and embedded in card objects, then personalized transmission is enabled, but manufacturing precision requirements increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecontent customizationVSAvoidembedding precision
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSManufacturing precision

Solution Approach 1:

The patent uses digital copying and data embedding rather than physical manufacturing. The customized media content is embedded as data within the NFT structure, which can be precisely replicated and transmitted without physical manufacturing constraints. This approach enables high-level customization while avoiding the precision requirements of physical manufacturing.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #26Copying

AI summary

Aspects of this technical solution can include modifying a customizable region of a media object into a customized media object having a modified customizable region, generating, based on a card template having a portion compatible with the media object, a card object corresponding to the card template and including the customized media object embedded in the card object at a location corresponding to the portion of the card template, generating, based on the card object, an NFT including a first identifier of the customized media object and a second identifier of the card template, registering, based on the NFT, the card object to a user account via a block at a blockchain, and linking the NFT with a wallet object corresponding to the user account.
