Script-Based Dynamic Ancillary Information Display for Moving Images
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing moving image caption processing methods fail to dynamically display user opinions in a flexible manner, as they are fixed in position and format, making it difficult to reflect temporal changes in moving images or music, and users cannot easily add, change, or delete caption information during playback.
Innovation Solution
An apparatus and method for processing moving image ancillary information based on a script, which includes an input unit for user commands, a storage unit for storing ancillary information, an extraction unit for searching and extracting information during playback, and an output unit for displaying the information on the screen based on the script, allowing dynamic positioning, timing, and formatting of ancillary information.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If user opinion information is displayed using fixed position and format in related art, then the display system is simple and stable, but it is difficult to properly reflect various states of moving image or music in a temporal manner
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies dynamics by transforming the static, fixed-position caption display into a dynamic system where ancillary information can be positioned and formatted flexibly according to temporal characteristics of the moving image. The script-based processing enables real-time adjustments to display parameters during playback, allowing captions to adapt their position, format, and timing dynamically rather than remaining fixed throughout playback.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent utilizes parameter changes by allowing multiple display parameters (position, format, timing) of ancillary information to be modified through script-based control. The system can change these parameters dynamically during playback based on the temporal state of the moving image, enabling adaptive display that responds to different scenes, music beats, or video events without requiring a complete system redesign.
2Ease of operation
If user opinion information depends on database in related art, then data storage is organized, but it is impossible for the user to designate the caption display position, form, and so forth
Solution Approach 1:
The patent introduces a script-based intermediary layer between the database and the display system. This script acts as a mediator that translates user intentions into specific display parameters, enabling users to control caption position, format, and timing without directly manipulating the underlying database structure. The script serves as an accessible interface that simplifies user interaction while maintaining the organized data storage benefits of the database.
Solution Approach 2:
The system enables self-service by allowing users to directly control and modify ancillary information display parameters through simple script commands during playback. Users can independently adjust caption position, format, and timing without requiring database administrator privileges or complex configuration procedures, making the system self-sufficient for end-user customization needs.
3Ease of operation
If moving image caption is displayed in the same position in related art, then the display system is stable, but it causes user inconvenience in reading the caption or in understanding the image being displayed
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies dynamics by enabling the caption display position to change dynamically during playback based on the temporal characteristics of the moving image. Instead of remaining static at a fixed position, captions can move to optimal locations that enhance readability and do not obstruct important visual content, adapting their position in real-time to improve user experience.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent implements local quality by allowing different parts of the display screen to serve different functions at different times. The system can position captions in locations that are optimal for readability in specific contexts, such as placing them in empty spaces during certain scenes or adjusting their position based on where they least interfere with the visual content, thereby optimizing the local display quality for each situation.
Data Source
AI summary
A method and apparatus for processing moving image ancillary information, based on a script, is provided. The method includes receiving a user command for inputting ancillary information, where the ancillary information includes a script for a moving image being played. The method further includes storing the ancillary information input by a user, searching for and extracting the stored ancillary information during playback of the moving image, and outputting the extracted ancillary information to an image display screen using the script.
