Smart TV Screenshot Overlay for Intuitive User Interaction
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Smart TVs lack intuitive user interfaces and seamless integration of user habits, making it difficult for users to browse and perform functions efficiently.
Innovation Solution
A smart television system that includes a display, memory, and processor, which, upon receiving a screen shot capture instruction, displays option bars with image thumbnails and recommended content items, allowing users to interact with the screen shot by activating related services or applications, sharing the screen shot, or accessing additional information.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If traditional broadcast media interface is used, then device complexity is reduced, but user interaction intuitiveness deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The interface is segmented into multiple functional layers: the current content display layer and the screenshot content display layer. This allows the system to maintain a simple primary display while adding interactive functionality through the overlay layer, resolving the contradiction between simplicity and intuitiveness.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent introduces a new dimensional layer (screenshot content display layer) overlaid on the traditional display. This multi-layer approach enables rich interaction without complicating the base interface, as users can access additional functionality through the overlay without navigating away from the main content.
2Adaptability or versatility
If seamless integration of user habits is implemented, then user experience is improved, but system complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The system automatically captures screenshots and generates related content without requiring explicit user configuration. The processor autonomously identifies screenshot opportunities, captures images, and presents related content options, allowing the system to adapt to user habits through automatic behavior rather than complex setup procedures.
Solution Approach 2:
The system performs preliminary actions by automatically capturing screenshots and preparing related content in advance. When a user shows interest in a particular moment, the screenshot and related content are already prepared and displayed, eliminating the need for manual configuration or complex processing at the moment of interaction.
3Ease of operation
If option bars with recommended items are displayed, then content accessibility is improved, but interface clutter increases
Solution Approach 1:
Recommended content and option bars are displayed in a separate dimensional layer overlaid on the main content. This allows additional information to be accessible without occupying significant space in the primary display area, maintaining content accessibility while minimizing interface clutter.
Solution Approach 2:
The option bars and recommended items are localized to specific regions of the interface rather than uniformly distributed. This concentrated placement provides easy access to additional content while leaving the majority of the display area dedicated to the primary content, balancing accessibility with visual cleanliness.

AI summary
The present invention relates to the technical field of televisions, and provides a method for processing a television screenshot, a smart television, and a storage medium. To meet the demands of a more intuitive user interface and a seamless user interaction function, multiple sets of optional bars are displayed while displaying current playback content on a display screen in response to an input screenshot operation instruction, wherein optional bars are respectively used for displaying a picture thumbnail of a screenshot, recognizing content-related recommended content on the basis of an image of the screenshot, and/or responding to a user control instruction input interface for an operation associated with the screenshot.
