Screen Sharing Authorization via Direct Online Content Access
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing screen sharing technologies limit the visibility and freedom of the sharee in accessing and viewing online content, as the content visibility is constrained by the sharer's screen definition, encoding and decoding algorithms, and network bandwidth, leading to poor definition and limited browsing freedom.
Innovation Solution
The method provides access information to the sharee for online content based on their access authority, allowing them to actively access and view online content during screen sharing, independent of the sharer's screen definition and network conditions.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If screen sharing transmits content through the sharer's screen definition and encoding algorithms, then the sharing function is achieved, but the content definition quality and sharee browsing freedom deteriorate
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments the content delivery into two independent paths: the original screen content is transmitted through the sharer's screen definition and encoding algorithms, while online content is separately delivered through direct access information (URLs, tokens) to the sharee's client. This segmentation allows each path to operate independently, preserving the sharer's screen control while enabling high-quality direct access for the sharee.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent introduces an intermediary mechanism where the server provides access information (URLs, authentication tokens) as intermediaries between the online content and the sharee's client. This intermediary approach decouples the content delivery from the screen sharing transmission path, allowing the sharee to access content directly without being constrained by the sharer's screen definition or network conditions.
2Manufacturing precision
If screen sharing relies on network bandwidth for content transmission, then the sharing function is maintained, but the content display definition and visibility are limited
Solution Approach 1:
The patent extracts the online content access mechanism from the screen sharing transmission stream. Instead of relying on network bandwidth to transmit reconstructed screen images, the system extracts the original content URLs and authentication information, allowing the sharee's client to directly access online content through independent network requests. This extraction eliminates the dependency on screen sharing's network transmission path for content quality.
3Adaptability or versatility
If the sharee passes through the sharer's screen to view content, then screen sharing is achieved, but the sharee's active access capability and viewing freedom are restricted
Solution Approach 1:
The patent inverts the traditional screen sharing paradigm where the sharee passively receives reconstructed content. Instead, the system provides active access capability to the sharee by delivering direct access information (URLs, tokens) that enable the sharee's client to actively request and display online content independently. This inversion transforms the sharee from a passive receiver to an active content accessor.

AI summary
The embodiments of the present invention provide an information processing method and apparatus, and an electronic device, the method comprising: receiving screen sharing request information; determining, by the screen sharing request information, whether an online content that meets a preset condition exists in a currently displayed content in a screen; providing, in response to determining that the online content exists in the currently displayed content and that the online content is a currently shared content, a sharee with access information for accessing the online content based on an access authority of the sharee.
