Solution Overview

Problem

Conventional security inspection systems face issues with non-uniform data formats, security risks, high network requirements, and high costs due to the need for specific image processing clients and algorithms, which complicates data transmission and processing.

Innovation Solution

A method and system where a server performs image processing on security inspection data, encoding it for transmission as a video stream to clients, reducing the need for high-performance clients and minimizing security risks by centralizing processing and transmission.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If security inspection data is transmitted from storage device to client for image processing, then image processing can be performed on the data, but this leads to leakage of image files and lacks security

Engineering Contradiction:
ImprovesecurityVSAvoiddata transmission
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The patent introduces a server as an intermediary component between the storage device and the client. The server receives image processing requests from clients, retrieves security inspection data from storage, performs image processing operations, and returns processed results to clients. This intermediary architecture prevents direct access to raw security inspection data by clients, thereby eliminating file leakage risks while maintaining secure data transmission and processing capabilities.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

2Productivity

If image processing algorithms are deployed on client, then image processing can be performed locally, but there is a risk of secret leakage

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveimage processing capabilityVSAvoidsecret leakage risk
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The patent centralizes image processing algorithms on the server side, making the server the intermediary that performs all image processing operations. Clients only send processing requests and receive processed results, without containing or accessing the actual image processing algorithms. This ensures that core image processing technology and algorithms remain secure on the server while clients retain full image processing functionality through the server interface.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

3Adaptability or versatility

If different security inspection devices generate image data, then various scanning capabilities are available, but the data has large differences in size and has high requirements for network conditions

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvescanning capabilityVSAvoidnetwork transmission speed
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSSpeed

Solution Approach 1:

The patent performs image processing operations on the server before transmitting data to clients. By preprocessing images to optimize their size and format according to network conditions and client requirements, the system reduces the amount of data that needs to be transmitted over the network. This preliminary processing action on the server enables efficient network transmission while maintaining support for data from various scanning devices with different image characteristics.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

4Manufacturing precision

If client device is configured with high performance for processing security inspection data, then image processing quality is improved, but the cost increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveimage processing qualityVSAvoidcost
Core Design Contradiction:
Manufacturing precisionVSEase of manufacture

Solution Approach 1:

The patent merges the image processing functionality into the server, combining storage, processing, and transmission capabilities in a centralized system. This eliminates the need for each client device to be configured with high-performance processing capabilities. The server handles all complex image processing operations, allowing clients to use simpler, lower-cost devices while maintaining high image processing quality through the server's processing power.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

AI summary

A method, server and system for operating on security inspection data is disclosed. In one aspect, an example method performed by a server for operating on security inspection data includes receiving an operation request for target security inspection data from a client through a network. The target security inspection data is loaded from a storage server based on the operation request. Image processing on the loaded target security inspection data is performed. The processed target security inspection data or a graphic interface including the processed target security inspection data is encoded. The encoded target security inspection data or graphic interface is transmitted to the client through the network in a video stream.
