Split Rendering for Color-Corrected Video Without Platform Adaptation
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing technologies struggle to provide color-corrected video content suitable for individuals with color weakness, particularly in real-time interactive environments, without requiring additional device investments or platform-specific adaptations.
Innovation Solution
A system and method involving a service server that performs a color weakness test, selects a split-rendering server, and transmits video content with a color weakness profile for rendering, ensuring the video is color-corrected based on user-specific profiles, with iterative updates if necessary, using a network of split-rendering servers and user devices.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Manufacturing precision
If color correction is implemented through platform-specific adaptations, then color accuracy for color-weak users is improved, but device complexity and development costs increase
Solution Approach 1:
The patent introduces a color correction server as an intermediary between the video content source and the user device. This server receives video content, applies color correction based on user profiles, and delivers corrected content. This mediator approach eliminates the need for platform-specific adaptations at the user device level, as the correction is performed centrally before delivery.
Solution Approach 2:
The color correction functionality is extracted from the user devices and platforms, and concentrated in a dedicated color correction server. This separation allows the core color correction logic to be maintained in one location, avoiding duplication across multiple platforms and reducing overall system complexity.
2Manufacturing precision
If additional devices or hardware are required for color correction, then color correction capability is improved, but user burden and accessibility decrease
Solution Approach 1:
The system automatically performs color correction without requiring user intervention or additional hardware. The color correction server detects user profiles, applies appropriate corrections, and delivers corrected content automatically. Users simply access content through their existing devices, and the correction happens transparently in the background.
Solution Approach 2:
The color correction server provides a universal solution that works across all platforms and devices through a single centralized service. Instead of requiring different hardware or software installations for different platforms, one universal server handles color correction for all users regardless of their device type.
3Adaptability or versatility
If real-time color correction is implemented, then user experience for interactive content is improved, but processing time and system resources increase
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs color correction in advance before content delivery. The color correction server processes video content and applies corrections before transmitting to users, so that when users access interactive content, the correction is already complete. This preliminary processing avoids adding delays during real-time interaction.
Solution Approach 2:
The color correction server maintains continuous operation and cached corrected content for frequent requests. Once content is corrected for a user profile, the corrected version can be served repeatedly without re-processing, ensuring continuous fast delivery for interactive content while maintaining correction quality.

AI summary
A system and a method for split-rendering for persons with color weakness are proposed. The split-rendering method may include, by a service server, in response to a login of a user device, loading a color weakness profile corresponding to a user of the logging-in user device. The method may also include, by the service server, in response to the user being color-weak in accordance with the loaded color weakness profile, selecting one of a plurality of split-rendering servers. The method may further include, by the service server, transmitting a video content along with the color weakness profile to the selected split-rendering server, and by the service server, transmitting access information about the selected split-rendering server to the user device.
