Solution Overview

Problem

Current mobile video display and management systems are limited in functionality and utility, lacking the flexibility and efficiency needed for effective video processing and monitoring.

Innovation Solution

A system and method for mobile video display and management that involves acquiring and storing video streams from multiple cameras, presenting a graphical user interface on a mobile device to display both live and recorded video data, allowing users to select and playback video streams, and providing features like navigation and toggle options for efficient video management.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Ease of operation

If mobile devices are used for video monitoring, then flexibility and remote access are improved, but functionality and utility are limited

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveremote access flexibilityVSAvoidvideo management functionality
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSAdaptability or versatility

Solution Approach 1:

The system enables mobile devices to perform multiple video management functions including live viewing, recorded playback, picture-in-picture mode, and full-screen mode within a single application interface, making the device universally capable for various video monitoring needs

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

2Quantity of substance

If multiple video streams are displayed simultaneously, then monitoring coverage is improved, but device complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvenumber of video streamsVSAvoidinterface complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Quantity of substanceVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The display interface is segmented into multiple distinct viewing modes (live view, recorded playback, picture-in-picture, full-screen) that can be independently activated. Each mode presents a simplified interface optimized for its specific function, allowing multiple video streams to be displayed without overwhelming the user with complex controls simultaneously

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

3Loss of information

If recorded video playback is enabled, then video analysis capability is improved, but operational efficiency decreases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvevideo data accessibilityVSAvoidvideo management efficiency
Core Design Contradiction:
Loss of informationVSProductivity

Solution Approach 1:

Video data is pre-categorized into live and recorded streams, with recorded playback functionality prepared in advance. The system maintains ready-accessible recorded video data that can be quickly retrieved and played back when needed, reducing the time required to access historical video information

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action
