Proxy Processor Data Format Conversion for Web-Native View Integration

Solution Overview

Problem

The existing methods for processing in electronic games and similar applications, which combine web view and native view, face delays due to independent data transfer and format conversion processes, leading to prolonged processing times, especially when real-time reproduction of audio or images is required.

Innovation Solution

An information processing system that utilizes a proxy to transmit requests from a web browser-based processing unit to an external server, acquires and converts data into a format usable by a native processing unit, and then transmits it, allowing for efficient data transfer and processing without direct server access by the native view.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Loss of time

If data is transferred from web view to native view through independent processes, then data transfer can be performed, but processing time is prolonged

Engineering Contradiction:

Improveprocessing timeVSAvoiddata transfer process complexity

Core Design Contradiction:

Loss of timeVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The proxy processor performs format conversion of data before transmitting it to the native view. By converting the data format in advance at the proxy processor rather than converting after reception at the native view, the system reduces the processing time required for format conversion and eliminates waiting time in the data transfer pipeline.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The patent introduces a proxy processor as an intermediary component between the web view and native view. This proxy processor handles data reception, format conversion, and transmission to the native view, thereby simplifying the overall data transfer process and reducing processing time by centralizing the conversion operation in a dedicated intermediate component.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

2Loss of time

If format conversion is performed after data reception in native view, then data can be processed in native format, but processing time is increased

Engineering Contradiction:

Improveformat conversion timeVSAvoiddata processing efficiency

Core Design Contradiction:

Loss of timeVSEase of manufacture

Solution Approach 1:

The proxy processor performs format conversion of data before transmitting it to the native view. By converting the data format in advance at the proxy processor rather than converting after reception at the native view, the system reduces the processing time required for format conversion and eliminates waiting time in the data transfer pipeline.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #10Preliminary action

3Productivity

If web view and native view operate as independent processes, then each can process data in its own format, but overall processing speed decreases

Engineering Contradiction:

Improvedata processing speedVSAvoidformat compatibility

Core Design Contradiction:

ProductivityVSAdaptability or versatility

Solution Approach 1:

The patent introduces a proxy processor as an intermediary component between the web view and native view. This proxy processor handles data reception, format conversion, and transmission to the native view, thereby simplifying the overall data transfer process and reducing processing time by centralizing the conversion operation in a dedicated intermediate component.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

Solution Approach 2:

The proxy processor dynamically changes the format parameter of the data based on the requirements of the native view. By converting data from web view format to native view format through parameter transformation, the system enables efficient data processing in the native view while maintaining the independence of both processing environments.

Inventive Principle:

AI summary

A web view processor performs processing by utilizing a web browser function, and a native view processor performs processing without utilizing a web browser function. A request for information is sent from the web view processor, via a proxy processor, to a server that is connected to an information communication network. Information is acquired at the proxy processor from the server in response to the request, the information is stored in a memory, the information is converted at the proxy processor into a format that can be processed by the native view processor, and the information whose format was converted is transmitted from the proxy processor to the native view processor.
