Multi-GUI Display Segmentation for Uninterrupted Content Streaming
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing graphical user interfaces (GUIs) often interrupt content streaming with advertisements or require users to switch between multiple applications, lacking the ability to simultaneously display multiple interfaces without interruption.
Innovation Solution
A system and method for modulating a GUI into multiple sub-GUI portions, allowing simultaneous display of content from different sources or hosts, with real-time status detection and user input for splitting, resizing, and reconfiguring these portions.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If a single GUI displays content from one source, then content integrity is maintained, but the ability to display multiple content sources simultaneously is lost
Solution Approach 1:
The display interface is divided into multiple independent sub-GUI portions, each capable of displaying content from different sources. The system controller separates the single GUI into multiple sub-GUIs that can be positioned and sized independently within the display area, allowing simultaneous display of multiple content sources while maintaining the integrity of each individual content stream.
2Productivity
If content is interrupted for advertisements, then revenue generation is achieved, but user viewing experience deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
Instead of interrupting the main content stream for advertisements, the system displays advertisements in a separate sub-GUI portion simultaneously with the main content. This spatial separation in the display dimension allows revenue generation through ad display while maintaining uninterrupted viewing experience for the primary content in its own dedicated display area.
3Loss of time
If users switch between multiple applications to view different content, then access to multiple content sources is achieved, but time efficiency decreases
Solution Approach 1:
The system merges multiple content sources and their respective GUIs into a single unified display interface. Multiple sub-GUI portions displaying different content sources are combined in one view, eliminating the need for users to switch between separate applications or windows. This allows simultaneous access to multiple content sources within a single application, significantly reducing the time required to view different content while maintaining operational simplicity through a unified interface.
Data Source
AI summary
There is provided a system for modulating a graphical user interface (GUI). The system comprising a user device and a system controller in communication therewith. The user device comprises a device controller and a display interface for displaying the GUI. Execution of processor executable code stored in the system controller or provided for storage in the user device by the system controller or by the device controller or by the combination thereof synergistically provides for the system controller or the device controller or the combination thereof with performing computer-implementable steps. The computer implementable steps comprise splitting the GUI into two or more sub-GUI portions positioned within the GUI frame boundary and providing for the two or more sub-GUI portions to simultaneously display respective content stored within the user device and/or hosted by the system controller and/or a same or different remote host controllers in communication with the user device.
