Solution Overview

Problem

Long video recording sessions on mobile terminals lead to user fatigue, resulting in jitter and mistakes, which increase the costs of later video editing due to numerous errors in recorded videos.

Innovation Solution

A video recording method and device that generates a video stream segmented into frame sequence segments, allowing for editing and uploading of these segments to a server, reducing the occurrence of jitter and mistakes, and thus lowering the costs of post-processing.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Duration of action of moving object

If video recording time is extended to capture more content, then the duration of recorded video increases, but user fatigue increases leading to more jitter and mistakes

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvevideo recording durationVSAvoidvideo quality
Core Design Contradiction:
Duration of action of moving objectVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The patent divides a long video recording into multiple short clips automatically detected through scene change analysis. When a scene change is detected, the system automatically cuts the video at that point, creating separate segments. This segmentation reduces the continuous recording duration that causes user fatigue while preserving all important content through automatic scene transition detection.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

2Loss of information

If video recording is continuous to maintain completeness, then all content is captured, but editing costs increase due to numerous errors requiring correction

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvevideo content completenessVSAvoidediting cost
Core Design Contradiction:
Loss of informationVSEase of manufacture

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs preliminary scene change detection and automatic video cutting during the recording process itself, before post-production editing is needed. By automatically identifying scene transitions and creating cut points in real-time, the system prepares the video structure in advance, eliminating the need for manual review and correction of jitter and mistakes during later editing phases.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

3Duration of action of moving object

If user switches hands to relieve fatigue during long recording, then recording can continue longer, but operational mistakes increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improverecording durationVSAvoidoperation stability
Core Design Contradiction:
Duration of action of moving objectVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The system makes the video editing process self-service by automatically detecting scene changes and performing cuts without requiring continuous user intervention. The automatic scene change detection algorithm independently identifies transition points and executes cuts, freeing the user from the need to manually monitor and control the recording throughout long durations.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service
