Competition Support Information Association System
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Conventional information processing systems fail to clearly associate support messages with specific plays in a competition, making it difficult for supporters and players to understand which play a support message is intended for.
Innovation Solution
An information processing system comprising supporter and player terminals, and an information processing apparatus that displays competition content, accepts support requests, and presents support information, allowing supporters to select support goods and associate them with specific plays, enabling clear identification of the intended play for support messages.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If support messages are accepted from supporters during a competition, then supporter engagement and player motivation are enhanced, but it becomes difficult to identify which specific play the support message is intended for
Solution Approach 1:
The system provides feedback by displaying support information alongside corresponding play information on the terminal device. When a support message is received, the system identifies the current play and presents both the support message and play details together, creating a feedback loop that confirms which play the support is for, thus resolving the information loss problem while maintaining high supporter engagement
Solution Approach 2:
The terminal device acts as an intermediary that receives support information from multiple supporters and matches it with play information from the competition broadcast. This intermediary function allows the system to bridge the gap between support messages and specific plays, enabling clear identification without compromising supporter engagement
2Quantity of substance
If multiple support messages are received simultaneously during different plays, then comprehensive supporter coverage is achieved, but it becomes difficult to understand which play each support message refers to
Solution Approach 1:
The system segments support information and play information into distinct but associated displays. Each support message is presented separately with its corresponding play information clearly segmented and linked, making it easy to understand which play each support message refers to even when multiple supports are received simultaneously across different plays
Solution Approach 2:
The system adds a temporal dimension to the display by presenting support information in chronological order with corresponding play timestamps or sequences. This dimensional approach allows multiple support messages to be displayed comprehensively while maintaining clear association with their respective plays through time-based differentiation

AI summary
An information processing apparatus including: a display processing part that causes a display unit to display content including at least one of a moving image of a competition or text indicating a situation in the competition; a request accepting part that accepts, from a supporter of the competition, a support request for selecting support goods to cheer on a player performing in the competition; and an information presenting part that presents, to at least one of the player or other supporters, any one of a plurality of plays in the competition and support information corresponding to the support goods in association with each other.
