Solution Overview

Problem

Existing gamification systems fail to effectively integrate real-life events, lacking real-time interaction, social responsibility promotion, and integration with social media platforms.

Innovation Solution

A system and method for gamification of real-life events that involves receiving real-life data, automatically building game objects, injecting them into ongoing computer games, and allowing players to interact with these objects, thereby triggering real-world implementation instructions.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If real-life events are integrated into gamified environments, then player engagement and social responsibility are improved, but system complexity and implementation difficulty increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveintegration of real-life eventsVSAvoidsystem complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent introduces a translation module as an intermediary component that converts real-life event data into game objects and vice versa. This mediator handles the complexity of integrating real-world events with virtual gameplay, allowing the system to maintain adaptability while managing implementation difficulty through a dedicated translation layer.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

Solution Approach 2:

The system segments the integration process into distinct modules: data collection modules for gathering real-life event information, translation modules for converting between real-world and virtual representations, and game integration modules for incorporating elements into the gameplay environment. This segmentation reduces overall system complexity by dividing the complex integration task into manageable, independent components.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

2Reliability

If real-time interaction with real-life events is enabled, then social responsibility and educational value are improved, but data processing requirements and system resources increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvereal-time interaction capabilityVSAvoiddata processing resources
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSUse of energy by moving object

Solution Approach 1:

The patent extracts only the essential information from real-life events through selective data collection modules that filter and prioritize relevant event parameters. By extracting only necessary data rather than processing all available information, the system achieves real-time interaction capability while reducing data processing resource consumption.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #2Taking out (Extraction)

Solution Approach 2:

The system performs preliminary data processing and translation of real-life event information before it enters the main game loop. Pre-processing activities include filtering, validating, and converting event data into game-ready formats in advance, which reduces the computational burden during real-time gameplay and lowers overall system resource requirements.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

3Extent of automation

If automatic building of game objects from real-life data is implemented, then ease of operation and automation level are improved, but manufacturing precision and data accuracy requirements increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveautomatic game object generationVSAvoiddata accuracy
Core Design Contradiction:
Extent of automationVSManufacturing precision

Solution Approach 1:

The translation module incorporates feedback mechanisms that validate and verify the accuracy of automatically generated game objects against the source real-life event data. The system checks for data consistency, logical errors, and completeness, providing feedback loops that ensure manufacturing precision while maintaining high levels of automation in the game object generation process.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback
