Solution Overview

Problem

Existing video streaming systems face challenges in increasing user acceptance of additional information, such as commercials, which are often perceived as disruptive and reduce the overall value for the user.

Innovation Solution

A method that assigns mood information to additional information and analyzes the video content using sentiment analysis to select the appropriate additional information and its display position, ensuring a harmonious transition between video content and commercials.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Loss of energy

If additional information (commercials) is inserted into video streams, then revenue generation and advertising effectiveness are improved, but user acceptance and viewing experience deteriorate

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveadvertising effectivenessVSAvoiduser acceptance
Core Design Contradiction:
Loss of energyVSObject-affected harmful factors

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies local quality by analyzing specific mood segments within the video content and matching commercials to corresponding mood states. Different portions of the video stream receive different commercial insertions based on their emotional characteristics, rather than applying a uniform commercial insertion strategy throughout the entire video.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #3Local quality

Solution Approach 2:

The patent changes the parameter of commercial selection based on mood analysis results. By detecting emotional states in video content and using these as selection criteria, the system dynamically adjusts which commercials are inserted, transforming the static commercial insertion process into a dynamic, mood-dependent selection process.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

2Reliability

If commercials are displayed at fixed positions in video streams, then advertising delivery is simplified and reliable, but user acceptance and emotional harmony deteriorate

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveadvertising deliveryVSAvoidemotional disruption
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSObject-affected harmful factors

Solution Approach 1:

The patent transforms the static, fixed-position commercial insertion approach into a dynamic system that adapts to the emotional content of the video. Commercial insertion positions and selections are determined dynamically based on real-time mood analysis of the video content, allowing the system to respond to changing emotional states in the video stream.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

3Measurement precision

If mood analysis is performed on video content, then commercial selection accuracy and user acceptance are improved, but system complexity and processing requirements increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvemood detection accuracyVSAvoidsystem complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent replaces complex manual or rule-based commercial selection mechanisms with an automated mood analysis system. By using computational methods to detect and classify emotional states in video content, the system automates the decision-making process for commercial insertion, reducing the need for manual intervention and complex rule-based systems.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #28Mechanics substitution (Replace mechanical system)

AI summary

In order to achieve an improved selection of additional information (11) and/or a position in a video file (7) for the display of additional information (11), it is proposed that at least one first mood information item (12) is assigned to the additional information (11), the content of the video file (7) is examined at least partially with regard to the occurrence of at least one further mood information item (10), the mood information (10) is assigned to at least one basic mood, and a selection of the additional information (11) to be displayed and/or a selection of a position for displaying additional information (11) takes place depending on the occurrence of the further mood information item (10).
