Solution Overview

Problem

Existing content presentation systems fail to adapt to diverse user needs, offering a fixed manner of media content organization that does not cater to users' varying requirements for quick browsing or detailed content exploration, leading to a suboptimal user experience.

Innovation Solution

Implementing a method and apparatus that allows switching between multiple viewing modes on a content presentation page, where media content items are presented in varying sizes, and associated information is displayed accordingly, enabling users to customize their viewing experience based on their needs.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If a fixed manner of media content organization is used, then the system structure is simple, but it cannot adapt to diverse user needs for quick browsing or detailed content exploration

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveadaptability to diverse user needsVSAvoidsystem structure complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent implements dynamic viewing modes that can switch between different content organization methods (e.g., grid view, list view, carousel view) based on user needs. The system transitions from a static fixed structure to a dynamic adaptable structure, allowing the same system to serve both quick browsing and detailed content exploration requirements without requiring multiple separate systems.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

2Adaptability or versatility

If multiple viewing modes are implemented, then user experience and adaptability are improved, but the complexity of the presentation system increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveviewing mode flexibilityVSAvoidpresentation system complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent creates a universal content presentation system that can handle multiple viewing scenarios through a single integrated platform. The same system provides both quick browsing functionality and detailed content exploration capabilities through different viewing modes, eliminating the need for separate systems for different purposes and thus managing complexity while improving versatility.

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

Solution Approach 2:

The patent segments the content presentation into distinct viewing modes (e.g., thumbnail view for quick browsing, detailed view for exploration) that can be independently configured and switched. This segmentation allows each viewing mode to be optimized for its specific purpose while maintaining overall system manageability through modular design.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

3Ease of operation

If media content items are presented in different sizes in different viewing modes, then content visibility and user engagement are improved, but the consistency of content presentation is reduced

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecontent browsing efficiencyVSAvoidcontent presentation consistency
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSStability of the object's composition

Solution Approach 1:

The patent dynamically adjusts content item sizes based on the active viewing mode. In thumbnail view, smaller uniform-sized items enable quick scanning; in detailed view, larger items provide better visibility. The system maintains presentation consistency within each mode while adapting across modes, balancing usability with internal coherence through controlled dynamic transformation.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

AI summary

According to embodiments of the disclosure, methods, apparatuses, devices and storage medium for content presentation are provided. The method includes: presenting a set of media content items on a content presentation page; switching between a plurality of viewing modes based on a mode switching operation for the plurality of viewing modes, the set of media content items being presented in a plurality of different sizes in the plurality of viewing modes; and in response to switching to at least one predetermined viewing mode of the plurality of viewing modes, presenting the set of media content items and information associated with the set of media content items together. In this way, the efficiency of viewing media content can be improved, the diversified demands of users for viewing modes can be met, and the user experience can be improved.
