Multi-Sided Digital Image Generation with Rotation and Audio
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current systems lack an easy-to-use method for creating multi-sided digital images that can be easily circulated and displayed online, particularly for branding purposes, which involves linking personal photos with promotional or sponsorship images and supporting audio tracks.
Innovation Solution
A system and method utilizing a web server and application to generate animated or video-based multi-sided digital images, allowing users to upload personal and promotional images, and create interactive images that can be flipped or rotated, with the option to include audio tracks, and automatically share on social media platforms.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If traditional static images are used for branding, then simplicity is maintained, but engagement and interactivity are lost
Solution Approach 1:
The patent transforms static promotional images into dynamic multi-sided digital images that can rotate and flip between multiple faces. Each face contains different content (personal photo, promotional image, audio player), and the image can transition between these faces through user interaction or automatic rotation, creating an engaging dynamic experience while maintaining a single image file structure.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent adds temporal and interactive dimensions to traditional 2D static images by creating 3D-like multi-sided structures that can rotate in space. This allows multiple pieces of information to be packed into a single image object, with each side representing a different dimension of content delivery (visual, audio, interactive).
2Ease of operation
If multiple separate files are used for personal photos and promotional images, then content flexibility is maintained, but ease of sharing is reduced
Solution Approach 1:
The patent merges multiple separate content elements (personal photo, promotional image, audio track, interactive elements) into a single multi-sided digital image file. This consolidation allows users to share one unified file across social media platforms without needing to manage multiple separate files, while the system handles the complexity of integrating these different content types internally.
3Adaptability or versatility
If audio tracks are integrated into promotional images, then multimedia capability is improved, but technical complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent creates a universal multi-sided digital image format that can accommodate multiple content types (images, audio, video, interactive elements) within a single structured file. This multi-functional approach allows the same basic framework to handle diverse media types, reducing the need for separate systems for different content formats while maintaining versatility.
4Productivity
If automatic social media sharing is implemented, then promotional reach is expanded, but automation complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements automatic sharing functionality that allows multi-sided digital images to be self-distributed across social media platforms. Once created, the system automatically handles the posting and distribution process without requiring manual intervention for each platform, enabling the promotional content to serve itself by leveraging the user's existing social media connections and the system's automated posting capabilities.
Data Source
AI summary
A system and method for creating multi-sided digital images involving at least one processor configured to run an image forming application, wherein the processor running said image forming application is configured to: (i) receive a digital sponsor image and a digital personal photo image from a user; (ii) generate an animated or video-based multi-sided digital image with at least one side depicting said digital sponsor image and at least another side depicting said personal photo, said animated or video-based multi-sided digital image configured to rotate and/or flip on a display of said one or more computer devices to show said digital sponsor image and said digital personal image; and (iii) transmit said animated or video-based multi-sided digital image to a user's computer device.
