Multi-Feed Event Viewing System for Personalized Content Selection
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Professionally produced media content often fails to cater to individual user interests, as it is not tailored to their specific preferences, leading to a lack of personalized viewing experiences for television events.
Innovation Solution
A system and method for presenting multiple concurrent feeds of a television event, allowing users to select and customize their viewing experience through a unified interface, with feeds dynamically labeled based on social or situational criteria, enabling users to choose the most interesting feed, and allowing recording and sharing of custom productions.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Manufacturing precision
If professionally produced media content is broadcast through large networks, then content quality and production value are improved, but the content cannot be tailored to individual user interests
Solution Approach 1:
The broadcast content is segmented into multiple concurrent feeds, each capturing different aspects or angles of the same television event. Users can then select and combine these segmented feeds to create personalized viewing experiences, resolving the contradiction between maintaining professional production quality and enabling user-specific customization.
Solution Approach 2:
The system dynamically allows users to switch between different feeds and combine them in real-time during the broadcast. This dynamic adaptability enables users to tailor the professionally produced content to their specific interests without sacrificing production quality, as the high-quality feeds remain intact but可 be reconfigured.
2Ease of operation
If a single unified feed is broadcast to all users, then distribution simplicity is maintained, but user viewing experience lacks personalization
Solution Approach 1:
Instead of distributing a single unified feed, the system segments the broadcast into multiple concurrent feeds that are distributed through the same simplified infrastructure. Users receive all feeds and can selectively combine them, maintaining distribution simplicity while enabling personalized viewing experiences through feed selection and combination.
Solution Approach 2:
The system enables users to self-configure their own personalized feeds by selecting and combining concurrent feeds according to their interests. This self-service approach allows users to create customized viewing experiences without requiring complex distribution systems, as the personalization is achieved through user-side feed combination rather than customized distribution.
3Adaptability or versatility
If multiple concurrent feeds are provided to users, then viewing personalization is enabled, but system complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The system uses a universal platform that can handle multiple concurrent feeds with the same infrastructure and processing pipeline. By designing the system to universally process any number of feeds through standardized operations, the complexity of handling multiple feeds is minimized while still enabling extensive personalization options for users.
4Adaptability or versatility
If users are given control to select and record custom feeds, then user satisfaction is improved, but operational complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The system empowers users to independently select, combine, and record the feeds they want to watch according to their own interests. This self-service approach gives users full control over their viewing experience without requiring complex system operations or manual configuration by operators, as the complexity is shifted to the user side where it enables greater flexibility.
Data Source
AI summary
A method may include receiving a number of video feeds from video capture devices located at an event venue. The number of video feeds may be dynamically analyzed to determine feed information associated with the number of video feeds. A request to view a multi-feed event may be received from a user device. At least some of the number of video feeds may be provided to the user device in response to the request. Feed information corresponding to the at least some of the number of video feeds may be provided based on the dynamically analyzing.
