Solution Overview

Problem

The interaction mode of picture-in-stream in Internet platforms is simplistic, lacking richness and complexity.

Innovation Solution

A method and apparatus for publishing interaction information through an object stream display interface that supports switching associated objects based on user triggers, accompanied by an information generation interface for creating and publishing interaction information, allowing for first and second-level interactions without exiting the display interface.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If users view pictures in picture-in-stream comments, then users can see associated objects, but the interaction mode remains simple and limited

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveinteraction modeVSAvoidinterface structure
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The object stream display interface is designed to perform multiple functions: displaying associated objects from interaction information, enabling switching between objects, and providing information generation capabilities. This multi-functionality enriches the interaction mode without requiring separate interfaces for each function.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)

Solution Approach 2:

The patent combines the display function and information generation function into a single object stream display interface. Users can both view associated objects and generate new interaction information within the same interface, eliminating the need to exit the interface for publishing comments or interactions.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

2Ease of operation

If users generate and publish interaction information through separate interfaces, then information can be published, but users must exit the display interface losing context

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvepublishing processVSAvoidinterface switching time
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The information generation interface is merged with the object stream display interface, allowing users to generate and publish interaction information without exiting the display context. This integration eliminates interface switching time and maintains user context throughout the publishing process.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

Solution Approach 2:

The interface pre-loads and displays associated objects and interaction information context before the user needs to publish. This preliminary preparation allows users to immediately generate and publish interactions without losing context or requiring repeated navigation to retrieve information.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

3Loss of information

If the object stream display interface displays all interaction information, then complete information is available, but the interface becomes cluttered and difficult to navigate

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveinteraction information completenessVSAvoidinterface layout
Core Design Contradiction:
Loss of informationVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The interaction information is segmented and organized by type or hierarchy, with associated objects displayed in a structured manner. The interface divides information into manageable sections that can be navigated systematically, preventing clutter while maintaining completeness.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The object stream display interface dynamically adjusts its layout and content display based on user interactions and trigger operations. Associated objects are switched and displayed on demand rather than all at once, allowing the interface to remain clean and navigable while preserving access to complete interaction information.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

AI summary

Embodiments of the present invention provide a method and apparatus for sending interaction information, an electronic device, and a storage medium. The method comprises: displaying an object flow display interface corresponding to target media content, the object flow display interface being used for displaying at least one associated object of at least part of interaction information of the target media content, object information of the associated object being contained in the corresponding interaction information, and the object flow display interface supporting switching display of the at least one associated object on the basis of a triggering operation; in response to an information generation operation acting in the object flow display interface, displaying an information generation interface, the information generation interface being used for generating first interaction information of the target media content; and in response to an information sending operation, sending the first interaction information as the interaction information of the target media content.
