Unified Content Upload Interface for Multi-Type Media Association
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Conventional social networking services require users to upload different types of content, such as images, videos, and text, through separate paths, making it difficult to display their associations and manage them as a cohesive record of an event.
Innovation Solution
A method and system that allows users to upload multiple types of content, including still images, text, and video, via a single editing screen, generating an associated parameter to indicate their relationship, enabling easy searching and management as a unified record.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If different types of contents are uploaded via different paths according to content types, then content upload functionality is achieved, but the complexity of the upload process increases and association between contents becomes difficult to display
Solution Approach 1:
The patent merges multiple separate upload paths for different content types (images, videos, text) into a single unified upload interface. This allows users to upload various content types through one path while the system automatically generates associated parameters to link related contents, thereby simplifying the upload process and reducing structural complexity.
Solution Approach 2:
The unified upload interface is designed to handle multiple content types universally. A single upload path can accommodate images, videos, text, and other content types, making the system multi-functional and eliminating the need for separate specialized paths for each content type.
2Loss of information
If contents are uploaded separately via different paths, then content management is simplified, but the ability to display close relations and associations between contents is reduced
Solution Approach 1:
The system generates associated parameters as feedback when contents are uploaded through the unified interface. These parameters automatically capture and represent the relationships between different content types, enabling the system to display associations between contents without requiring manual configuration by users.
Solution Approach 2:
The associated parameter acts as an intermediary element that links different content types together. This mediator carries relationship information between contents, allowing the system to maintain and display associations even when contents are of different types and were uploaded through the same unified path.
3Measurement precision
If multiple metadata pieces are compared to find associated content, then accurate content association is achieved, but the searching and retrieval process becomes complex and time-consuming
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs preliminary action by generating associated parameters at the time of content upload. This pre-establishes the relationships between contents before any retrieval operation occurs, so that when users search for associated content, the system can quickly retrieve results using the pre-computed parameters without needing to perform complex real-time comparisons of multiple metadata pieces.

AI summary
Provided is a content uploading method performed by a user terminal so as to upload content to a server. The content uploading includes operations of selecting a plurality of contents; generating an associated parameter indicating an association relationship between the plurality of contents; and uploading the plurality of contents comprising the associated parameter to the server.
