Solution Overview

Problem

Current editing schemes on PCs are limited by providing only fixed editing styles, restricting editing to moving image files, and requiring users to perform numerous operations to create a new edited file, especially when dealing with still image files.

Innovation Solution

A method and apparatus for creating a 'pleasure image file' that allows users to select and arrange still images with customizable display periods and special effects, enabling dynamic movement and transition effects, and encoding the file for upload to websites, using a computer executable program with modules for sequence management, special effects, and encoding.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Ease of operation

If fixed editing styles are provided in current PC editing schemes, then the editing process is simplified, but the versatility and creativity of image editing is restricted

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveediting process simplicityVSAvoidediting style variety
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSAdaptability or versatility

Solution Approach 1:

The patent implements dynamic editing by allowing still images to move from one position to another on the screen, transitioning from static to dynamic display. This enables versatile editing styles while maintaining ease of operation through automated movement patterns.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

Solution Approach 2:

The system changes display parameters by allowing images to be displayed at different positions, sizes, and with various special effects. This enables diverse editing styles without requiring complex manual operations from users.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

2Device complexity

If editing is restricted to moving image files only, then the editing system remains simple, but the applicability to still image files is limited

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveediting system simplicityVSAvoidfile type compatibility
Core Design Contradiction:
Device complexityVSAdaptability or versatility

Solution Approach 1:

The patent makes the editing system universal by enabling it to handle both still image files and moving image files with the same interface and tools. The system applies special effects and movement patterns to still images just as it does to video files, expanding file type compatibility while maintaining system simplicity.

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

3Ease of operation

If users perform numerous operations to create an edited file, then precise control over editing is achieved, but the time and effort required increases significantly

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveuser operation countVSAvoidediting time
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs automated functions including automatic movement of images across the screen, automatic application of special effects, and automatic encoding of the final file. This self-service capability significantly reduces user operations and editing time while maintaining high-quality results.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

Solution Approach 2:

The system prepares and processes images in advance by pre-defining movement patterns, special effects, and encoding parameters. This preliminary action eliminates the need for users to perform numerous manual operations during the editing process.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

4Stability of the object's composition

If still images are displayed statically without movement, then the display is simple and stable, but the visual appeal and engagement is reduced

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedisplay stabilityVSAvoiddisplay style variety
Core Design Contradiction:
Stability of the object's compositionVSAdaptability or versatility

Solution Approach 1:

The patent transforms static still images into dynamic displays by implementing automated movement patterns where images move from one position to another on the screen. This maintains composition stability through controlled animation while dramatically increasing display style variety and visual appeal.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

AI summary

Disclosed is a method of creating a pleasure image file comprising a plurality of images. The method comprises providing a plurality of still image files for use in creating a pleasure image file comprising a plurality of still images from the plurality of still image files and receiving an input indicative of a sequence for displaying the plurality of still images when playing the pleasure image file. Incorporating some effects for each still image in creating the image file comprises assigning a period during which each still image is to be displayed on a screen, adding a display special effect to be used while displaying the at least one still image, and creating the pleasure image file configured to display the plurality of still images on a screen in accordance with the sequence each for the assigned period, wherein the at least one still image is to be displayed with the display special effect.
