Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Individuals face challenges in controlling the composition and location of cameras during real-time personal broadcasting, leading to unnatural shooting results and difficulties in creating natural live media with simple control.
Innovation Solution
A method and server for generating image data through multiple cameras, which automatically select a main camera based on preset conditions, predefined templates, or user gestures, to generate automatically edited image data by transmitting image data to a real-time broadcasting server.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If a user directly controls a camera during a real-time personal broadcast, then the user can manually adjust camera composition and location, but this leads to unnatural shooting results and makes it difficult to create natural live media
Solution Approach 1:
The system enables self-service by allowing the broadcast content to automatically control camera switching. The camera selection is performed autonomously based on the broadcast content itself, eliminating the need for manual user intervention while ensuring natural and appropriate camera composition throughout the broadcast
Solution Approach 2:
The system implements feedback by analyzing the broadcast content in real-time and using this information to dynamically select the most appropriate camera. The camera switching decision is based on feedback from the actual broadcast content, ensuring that the composition and location automatically adapt to create natural-looking live media
2Reliability
If multiple cameras are used to capture image data, then the quality and variety of live media improve, but the complexity of controlling composition and location increases
Solution Approach 1:
The system introduces an intermediary mechanism that automatically selects between multiple cameras based on preset conditions. This intermediary selection process simplifies the overall system by removing the need for complex manual coordination of multiple cameras, while still achieving high-quality live media through automated intelligent camera choice
Solution Approach 2:
The system manages complexity by changing the control parameter from manual user input to automated condition-based selection. By using preset conditions and automatic selection logic, the system maintains high media quality through multiple cameras while keeping the control mechanism simple and straightforward
3Reliability
If automatic camera selection based on preset conditions is implemented, then the naturalness and professionalism of live media improve, but the system complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The system applies preliminary action by establishing preset conditions and selection criteria before the broadcast begins. These pre-configured parameters enable the automatic camera selection system to operate professionally and naturally throughout the broadcast without requiring complex real-time decision-making logic, thus maintaining professional quality while managing system complexity
