Solution Overview

Problem

In existing short video platforms, the process of participating in activities requires users to jump between video and activity pages, leading to a complex participation path and poor user experience.

Innovation Solution

A method and apparatus that display activity resources and a video generation control on the video playing page after a preset duration, allowing users to generate an activity video without leaving the playing scene, simplifying the participation path by integrating activity creation directly within the video interface.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Loss of information

If users jump to independent activity pages to participate in activities, then activity details can be displayed comprehensively, but the participation path becomes complex and user experience deteriorates

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveactivity information completenessVSAvoidparticipation path complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Loss of informationVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The patent merges the activity page and video playing page into a single integrated interface. The activity resources and video player coexist on the same page, eliminating the need for users to navigate between separate pages. This combining approach maintains comprehensive activity information display while simplifying the participation path to a single-page operation.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

Solution Approach 2:

The patent transforms the traditional sequential navigation (video page → activity page) into a spatial coexistence model where activity resources are displayed in a overlay or side panel dimension alongside the video player. This dimensional change allows users to access activity information without leaving the video context, reducing navigation steps while preserving information completeness.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #17Another dimension (Dimensionality change)

2Productivity

If activity resources are displayed on the video playing page, then user interaction efficiency improves, but page layout complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveuser interaction efficiencyVSAvoidpage layout complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent segments the video playing page into distinct functional zones: the main video player area and the activity resources display area. These segmented regions can be independently controlled and styled, allowing efficient user interaction within each zone while managing overall page complexity through modular design.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The patent implements a dynamic layout where activity resources can be displayed in different configurations based on user interaction state. When users interact with video elements, activity resources may appear, expand, or reposition dynamically. This dynamic behavior allows the page to maintain simplicity during video playback while providing comprehensive interaction capabilities when needed.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics
