Solution Overview

Problem

Poor communication between players using different languages in video games leads to difficulties in interaction and performance, as existing technologies fail to effectively translate audio data in real-time during gaming sessions.

Innovation Solution

A smart interpreter engine and electronic system that converts speech data from one language into text and then translates it into another language, utilizing a speech-to-text converter, natural language processing module, and translator, integrated with game software to provide real-time language interpretation during gameplay.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If speech-to-text conversion and translation modules are integrated into the game system, then communication between players of different languages is improved, but device complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvelanguage compatibilityVSAvoidsystem structure
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent combines speech-to-text conversion, natural language processing, and translation functions into an integrated smart interpreter engine that works seamlessly with game software. This merging of multiple language processing functions into a unified system resolves the contradiction by achieving versatile language support while managing system complexity through integration rather than separate components.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

Solution Approach 2:

The smart interpreter engine is designed to handle multiple languages and various game scenarios simultaneously. The system can process different speech inputs, convert them to text, and translate into multiple target languages, providing universal language support across different gaming contexts without requiring separate systems for each function.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)

2Ease of operation

If real-time translation is implemented during gameplay, then player interaction quality is improved, but processing time and system resources increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecommunication efficiencyVSAvoidtranslation delay
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs speech-to-text conversion and translation processing in the background during gameplay without interrupting the game flow. By preparing and processing language data in advance and simultaneously, the system minimizes perceived delays while maintaining real-time communication efficiency.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The smart interpreter engine operates continuously during gameplay, processing speech inputs and providing translations without stopping or pausing the game. This continuous operation ensures that language translation keeps pace with gameplay actions, maintaining both communication efficiency and real-time responsiveness.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #20Continuity of useful action
