Multi-View Multimedia Platform for Interactive Venue Streaming
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Conventional video and audio capture, processing, and delivery systems lack user control over selecting different views within a venue, limiting audiences to a single broadcast feed controlled by an operator, and do not provide interactive or on-demand multimedia experiences.
Innovation Solution
A multimedia platform that enables users to select various points of view within a venue for streaming, utilizing integrated detection and capturing devices, such as cameras and microphones, with wireless communication, and processing layers for content ingestion, processing, and delivery, allowing users to choose from multiple perspectives and interact with the content.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If a single broadcast feed is used for transmission, then the system complexity is reduced and ease of operation is improved, but user control over viewing experience and audience participation are limited
Solution Approach 1:
The broadcast feed is segmented into multiple selectable points of view, each representing a different camera angle or perspective within the venue. Users can choose between a main broadcast feed and alternative POV feeds, allowing individual control over viewing experience while maintaining system simplicity through structured feed organization
Solution Approach 2:
The system dynamically allows users to switch between different broadcast feeds and points of view during the event. The platform enables real-time selection and switching of camera angles and perspectives, providing adaptability and user control without requiring complex manual configuration
2Adaptability or versatility
If multiple capturing devices are deployed throughout the venue, then the quantity of available views is increased, but the device complexity and data processing requirements increase
Solution Approach 1:
Multiple capturing devices are deployed throughout the venue, with each device capable of capturing video and audio data. The system provides a universal platform that can select and switch between any of these devices as the active point of view, maximizing the utility of the deployed hardware without requiring each device to have specialized functions
Solution Approach 2:
The broadcast platform acts as an intermediary between the multiple capturing devices and the end users. It receives data from numerous cameras and microphones, processes and organizes the feeds, and presents a simplified selection interface to users, thereby managing device complexity centrally rather than at each endpoint
3Ease of operation
If operator control is maintained over broadcast feed selection, then system simplicity is preserved, but interactive and on-demand multimedia experiences are limited
Solution Approach 1:
Users are empowered to self-select their desired point of view from the available feeds without requiring operator intervention. The platform provides an automated interface where users can independently choose and switch between different camera angles and perspectives, enabling on-demand multimedia experiences while maintaining system simplicity through automated feed management
