Solution Overview

Problem

Conventional message exchange techniques in communication systems are limited to text and images, failing to stimulate user interest and motivation for message exchange.

Innovation Solution

A server system that transmits specific image data to communication terminals in response to user requests, including a third image when the requests form a predetermined combination, enhancing the emotional connection and entertainment value of the message exchange.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Ease of operation

If conventional message exchange techniques are used, then text and image exchange is simple and straightforward, but user interest and motivation for message exchange are not stimulated

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvemessage exchange simplicityVSAvoiduser engagement capability
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSAdaptability or versatility

Solution Approach 1:

The system dynamically generates third image data based on the combination of first and second image data exchanged between users. This dynamic content generation transforms static image exchange into an interactive experience where the server actively creates personalized content in response to user interactions, thereby stimulating user interest while maintaining operational simplicity

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

Solution Approach 2:

The server changes the parameter of image content by generating third image data that is different from the original first and second images. This parameter change (from static to dynamic content) enhances user engagement by providing novel, context-specific image content that responds to the interaction pattern between users

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

2Adaptability or versatility

If the server transmits third image data for predetermined combinations, then user motivation increases, but server processing complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveuser engagement capabilityVSAvoidserver processing complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The server performs preliminary processing by storing multiple sets of third image data in advance, each corresponding to different predetermined combinations of first and second images. When a match is detected, the server simply retrieves and transmits the pre-prepared third image data, avoiding complex real-time generation and reducing processing complexity while maintaining high user engagement capability

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The server uses copying by storing multiple copies of third image data corresponding to different image combinations. Instead of generating unique content for each interaction, the server copies and transmits appropriate pre-generated third image data based on the detected combination, simplifying the processing mechanism while providing diverse engaging content

Inventive Principle:
Principle #26Copying

AI summary

Provided is a system that includes circuitry that transmits first image data to a second communication terminal in response to a first request for image transmission from a first communication terminal; transmits second image data to the first communication terminal in response to a second request for image transmission from the second communication terminal; and transmits, in a case that the first request for image transmission and the second request for image transmission are a predetermined combination, third image data corresponding to the predetermined combination to the first communication terminal and the second communication terminal.
