Solution Overview

Problem

Users face challenges in creating and accessing organized audiovisual content, such as video reviews, which leads to poor customer experience and increased computational load on servers due to the need to watch extensive videos to find relevant information.

Innovation Solution

A scene-driven content creation tool that allows users to create and tag discrete scenes within video reviews, enabling efficient cataloging, sorting, and searching of content, with a Graphical User Interface guiding users through the creation process and providing options for selecting and viewing specific topics.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Loss of information

If users watch entire videos to locate relevant portions, then they can access complete information, but it increases time consumption and computational load on servers

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecompleteness of informationVSAvoidtime to locate relevant content
Core Design Contradiction:
Loss of informationVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The patent segments video content into discrete scenes, each tagged with topic identifiers. This allows the video to be divided into manageable portions that can be independently accessed and searched, enabling users to locate specific relevant content without watching the entire video.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The patent introduces tags as an intermediary layer between the video content and user search queries. These tags serve as metadata that bridge the gap between user information needs and video content, enabling efficient retrieval of relevant scenes without direct video scanning.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

2Loss of information

If users watch entire videos to find relevant portions, then they ensure complete information access, but it increases network bandwidth consumption

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecompleteness of informationVSAvoidnetwork bandwidth utilization
Core Design Contradiction:
Loss of informationVSLoss of energy

Solution Approach 1:

The patent extracts only the necessary video scenes based on user queries and tag matching, rather than transmitting or requiring users to view entire videos. This extraction approach significantly reduces network bandwidth consumption while maintaining information completeness for the specific user need.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #2Taking out (Extraction)

Solution Approach 2:

The patent implements partial action by retrieving and presenting only the specific video scenes that contain relevant information, rather than delivering complete videos. This partial delivery approach optimizes network bandwidth usage by transmitting only the necessary data portions.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #16Partial or excessive action

3Productivity

If video content is organized into discrete tagged scenes, then search efficiency improves, but content creation complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecontent search efficiencyVSAvoidcontent creation tool complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent implements self-service by enabling users to automatically tag their own video scenes during the recording process. The system provides real-time guidance and automatic tagging capabilities, allowing users to create organized, searchable content without requiring complex post-processing or external assistance.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

Solution Approach 2:

The patent applies preliminary action by having users tag and organize video content into discrete scenes during the initial creation phase, rather than requiring complex organization later. This upfront structuring simplifies the overall process and enables efficient search from the beginning.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

4Ease of operation

If discrete scenes are created and tagged for each topic, then content accessibility improves, but the content creation process becomes more complex

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecontent accessibilityVSAvoidcontent creation tool complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent enables users to self-organize their video content into topic-based scenes with automatic tagging during recording. This self-service approach improves accessibility while keeping the creation process manageable by providing clear, step-by-step guidance and automated organization features.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service
