Screen Sharing Feedback for Questionnaire Input Detection

Resolve Bottlenecks,
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions

Solution Overview

Problem

Existing screen sharing systems fail to effectively notify sharers about the input made in an answer section on another terminal, leading to difficulties in information sharing between participants.

Innovation Solution

A system that connects multiple terminals, allowing information about an input made in an answer section on one terminal to be displayed on another terminal, thereby notifying the sharer of the input position.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Loss of information

If screen sharing is implemented among multiple terminals, then information can be shared between participants, but sharers cannot detect which part of the screen content is displayed on other screens

Engineering Contradiction:

Improveinformation sharingVSAvoiddetection of displayed content

Core Design Contradiction:

Loss of informationVSDifficulty of detecting and measuring

Solution Approach 1:

The system implements feedback by notifying the sharer when an input is made in an answer section on another terminal. The notification includes information about the question item corresponding to the answer section, providing real-time feedback about what is being viewed and interacted with on remote screens.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #23Feedback

Solution Approach 2:

The system uses an intermediary notification mechanism that mediates between the input action on one terminal and the sharer's awareness on another terminal. This intermediary process captures input events, identifies corresponding question items, and delivers notifications to the sharer, bridging the information gap.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

2Adaptability or versatility

If screen sharing is implemented among multiple terminals, then collaboration can occur, but sharers cannot know the input position in answer sections on other terminals

Engineering Contradiction:

Improvecollaboration capabilityVSAvoidinput position information

Core Design Contradiction:

Adaptability or versatilityVSLoss of information

Solution Approach 1:

The system provides feedback to the sharer about inputs made on other terminals by displaying notifications that include the question item information. This feedback mechanism ensures that collaboration can proceed smoothly as the sharer remains informed about what colleagues are viewing and inputting.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #23Feedback

AI summary

To provide a system with which, when an input is made on one terminal in one answer section of a questionnaire, information regarding a question item corresponding to the above-described answer section is displayed on another terminal. A system connected with a first and a second terminals. When a first questionnaire is displayed on a screen of the first terminal and a second questionnaire, corresponding to the first questionnaire, is displayed on a screen of the second terminal, when the second terminal receives information in one answer section of the second questionnaire, the system causes the first terminal to display information regarding a question item corresponding to the one answer section.
