Solution Overview

Problem

Users face interference and psychological pressure when publishing updates on social platforms due to the centralized push portal, which displays updates from all social contacts on a single page, making it difficult to share personal content without affecting others.

Innovation Solution

A video processing method that allows users to shoot, upload, and display personal status videos on a personal homepage, separate from the centralized push portal, enabling users to publish content without interfering with their social contacts and providing options for editing and privacy control.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If updates are published on a centralized push portal displaying all social contacts' updates, then users can share personal content, but it causes interference and psychological pressure on social contacts

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvepersonal content sharingVSAvoidinterference with social contacts
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSObject-affected harmful factors

Solution Approach 1:

The patent divides the social platform into separate functional areas: a centralized push portal for social interaction and a personal homepage for personal content display. This segmentation allows users to publish personal updates on their personal homepage without pushing content to their social contacts' feeds, thereby eliminating the harmful interference while preserving the ability to share personal content.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The patent extracts the personal content publishing function from the centralized push portal and relocates it to the personal homepage. By taking out the personal status video publishing feature from the social feed system, users can share personal content independently without it being pushed to or interfering with their social contacts.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #2Taking out (Extraction)

2Productivity

If personal status videos are displayed on the centralized push portal, then users can share personal updates, but it increases the complexity of managing social relationships and content visibility

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecontent publishing efficiencyVSAvoidsocial relationship management
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent separates personal content management from social relationship management by creating distinct functional areas. The personal homepage handles personal content publishing independently, while the push portal manages social interactions. This segmentation simplifies the overall system complexity by allowing each module to operate independently with its own rules.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The patent extracts the personal status video publishing function from the complex social relationship management system and places it on the personal homepage. This extraction removes the burden of managing content visibility across social relationships, as personal videos are displayed only on the user's own homepage without automatic pushing to contacts.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #2Taking out (Extraction)

3Ease of operation

If users publish updates on the social platform, then they can share life moments, but it creates psychological pressure due to concern about social relationships

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecontent publishing easeVSAvoidpsychological pressure
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSObject-affected harmful factors

Solution Approach 1:

The patent extracts the personal content publishing function from the social push system and relocates it to the personal homepage. This allows users to publish personal status videos without the psychological pressure of affecting social relationships, as the content remains on their personal page and is not automatically pushed to their contacts' feeds.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #2Taking out (Extraction)

Solution Approach 2:

The personal homepage acts as an intermediary between the user and their social contacts. It provides a dedicated space for personal content display that mediates the interaction by allowing users to share moments without direct impact on their social feed, thereby reducing the psychological pressure associated with public posting.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

AI summary

A video processing method, apparatus, and device and a storage medium are provided. The method includes: monitoring an operation indication inputted by a user through a personal homepage on a social platform, the personal homepage being used for displaying personal information of the user; obtaining, when the operation indication is a shooting indication for shooting a personal status video, the personal status video; uploading the personal status video to a back-end server of the social platform; and displaying indication information of the personal status video in a personal-information display region of the personal homepage.
