Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If a fixed video playback method is used, then the system complexity is low, but user engagement and interaction are limited

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveuser interaction capabilityVSAvoidsystem complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent segments the video content by identifying multiple target objects within the video frame. Each target object is associated with a separate interactive element, allowing users to interact with specific objects of interest rather than the video as a whole. This segmentation enables differentiated interaction modes while maintaining the overall video playback system.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The patent introduces interactive elements as intermediary components between the video content and the user interface. These elements serve as mediators that bridge the gap between passive video playback and active user interaction, enabling users to access additional information or perform actions related to specific target objects without directly manipulating the video stream.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

2Adaptability or versatility

If interactive elements are added to multimedia resources, then user engagement is enhanced, but the interface complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveuser engagementVSAvoidinterface complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies local quality by making interactive elements appear only in specific regions or contexts within the video interface. Rather than making the entire interface interactive, the system selectively enables interaction at locations where target objects are detected, maintaining simplicity in non-interactive areas while providing enhanced engagement where needed.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #3Local quality

Solution Approach 2:

The patent implements dynamic behavior by making interactive elements appear, disappear, or change properties based on user actions, video playback state, or detected target objects. This dynamic approach allows the interface to adapt its complexity in real-time, showing interactive elements only when relevant to the current video content or user needs.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

3Productivity

If multiple interactive elements are displayed, then information acquisition efficiency is improved, but processing requirements increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveinformation acquisition efficiencyVSAvoidprocessing power
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSPower

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies partial action by selectively creating and displaying interactive elements only for certain target objects that meet specific criteria, such as relevance to user interests, importance in the video context, or user-requested categories. This partial approach allows the system to provide enhanced information acquisition for key objects while avoiding the processing overhead of creating interactive elements for every detectable object in the video.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #16Partial or excessive action

AI summary

A method for multimedia resource interaction, a medium, and an electronic device are provided. The method includes displaying a multimedia resource including a target object, displaying an interactive element associated with the target object in the multimedia resource in response to the multimedia resource being displayed to a display node, and displaying a page associated with the interactive element in response to a trigger operation on the interactive element.
