Solution Overview

Problem

Existing display control methods for multimedia data suffer from unstable accuracy and control effects due to subjective determinations, such as visual fatigue, leading to discrepancies between planned and actual display counts within preset time intervals.

Innovation Solution

A method and apparatus that distribute multimedia data to specific display areas, calculate and compare real and planning display counts within time periods, determine a data display rate for each area, and adjust display accordingly based on this rate, enhancing accuracy and control stability.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Measurement precision

If a display control person determines whether to perform display control on multimedia data based on visual inspection at preset time intervals, then the control process can be implemented, but the accuracy and stability of the control result are affected due to visual fatigue and subjective factors

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedisplay count accuracyVSAvoidcontrol stability
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The patent replaces the mechanical human visual inspection system with an automated computer-based system that retrieves actual display counts from server logs and compares them with planned display counts. This substitution eliminates visual fatigue and subjective factors, providing objective and consistent measurement of display counts.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #28Mechanics substitution (Replace mechanical system)

Solution Approach 2:

The patent implements a feedback mechanism where the system continuously retrieves actual display counts, compares them with planned counts, calculates discrepancies, and automatically adjusts display parameters based on the comparison results. This closed-loop feedback ensures stable and reliable control while maintaining high measurement accuracy.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

2Manufacturing precision

If the system separately determines whether each piece of multimedia data meets display requirements individually, then detailed control can be achieved, but the control process becomes complex and time-consuming

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedisplay control precisionVSAvoidcontrol process complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Manufacturing precisionVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent merges the control process by first calculating total planned display counts and total actual display counts across all multimedia data, then determining whether the combined data meets display requirements. This merging approach maintains precise control over display outcomes while significantly simplifying the control process compared to individual item evaluation.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

3Measurement precision

If the system checks display counts at frequent intervals to ensure accuracy, then display control accuracy improves, but the time and computational resources required increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedisplay count accuracyVSAvoidcontrol processing time
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The patent implements periodic checking at preset time intervals rather than continuous monitoring. The system retrieves actual display counts, compares them with planned counts, and determines whether to continue displaying at these periodic intervals. This approach ensures adequate measurement precision while minimizing time and computational resource consumption compared to continuous monitoring.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #19Periodic action
