Media Control via Physical Movement Detection
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing methods for pushing media information through local area networks are inefficient and lack precision, often annoying users and failing to hide media information in a timely manner, while also posing security concerns.
Innovation Solution
A method and system that utilize an operating terminal with a display and processors to detect user-defined movements and send operation instructions to an application server, allowing for precise control of media information on target terminals within a local area network, including hiding or transmitting media information, through a client-side application and social networking platform.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Quantity of substance
If media information is pushed to terminals through local area network using conventional methods, then the coverage range is expanded, but the precision of information delivery is poor and users are annoyed
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs preliminary actions by detecting user movements (shaking, rotating) before delivering media information. The operating terminal detects predefined physical movements and sends operation instructions to the application server, which then selectively pushes information to specific target terminals based on the detected user intent, rather than blindly pushing to all terminals in the network.
2Duration of action of moving object
If media information is displayed on terminal for a fixed period, then the information can be shown to users, but the information cannot be hidden efficiently in time
Solution Approach 1:
The system makes the display duration dynamic rather than fixed. The application server receives operation instructions from the operating terminal that can extend or terminate the display duration based on real-time user actions. When the operating terminal detects predefined physical movements, it sends instructions to the application server to control whether media information continues to be pushed to target terminals, allowing flexible adjustment of display duration.
Solution Approach 2:
The system implements feedback mechanisms where the operating terminal continuously monitors user movements and sends real-time operation instructions to the application server. The application server adjusts the information pushing behavior based on this feedback, extending or terminating display based on detected user actions such as shaking or rotating the operating terminal.
3Device complexity
If conventional methods are used to control media information, then the system is simple, but security issues arise
Solution Approach 1:
The system introduces an intermediary - the application server - that mediates between the operating terminal and target terminals. The application server receives operation instructions from the operating terminal, verifies them, and then controls the pushing of media information to target terminals. This intermediary layer enhances security by centralizing control and validation, preventing unauthorized or malicious information pushing while maintaining relatively simple client-side implementations.
Data Source
AI summary
A method of facilitating an operating terminal to control media information displayed on target terminals using a computer server is disclosed. Upon receipt of a search request for target terminals within a local area network from an operating terminal, the computer server identifies a list of online terminals as the target terminals and returns the target terminals to the operating terminal. A user of the operating terminal then generates an operation instruction for controlling media information displayed on the target terminals. In response to the operation instruction, the computer server sends the operation instruction to respective applications running on the target terminals. The respective applications are configured to control the media information displayed on the target terminals in accordance with the operation instruction.
