Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing electronic devices lack the capability to enhance communication during video calls by overlaying virtual 3D grids for precise placement of multimedia objects and transmitting position information to counterpart terminals.
Innovation Solution
An electronic device with a display module, memory, and processor is configured to overlay a polygon-shaped 3D grid during a video call, allowing users to select a plane for a multimedia object and transmit its position information to a counterpart terminal.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Measurement precision
If a polygon-shaped 3D grid with virtual planes is overlaid during video call, then communication precision and multimedia object placement accuracy are improved, but device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent introduces a 3D spatial grid system with multiple virtual planes (front, back, left, right, top, bottom) to represent different communication dimensions. This dimensional expansion allows precise positioning of multimedia objects in 3D space during video calls, transforming traditional 2D communication into immersive 3D spatial communication.
Solution Approach 2:
The virtual 3D grid acts as an intermediary layer between users and the communication environment. It provides a structured framework with defined planes and positions that mediates the placement and transmission of multimedia objects, enabling precise position information exchange without requiring complex direct coordination between participants.
2Adaptability or versatility
If position information and multimedia object data are transmitted to counterpart terminal, then communication functionality is enhanced, but data transmission volume increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments multimedia objects into discrete elements positioned on specific virtual planes within the 3D grid. Each object's position information is encoded relative to the grid structure, allowing selective transmission of only necessary position and data portions rather than complete environmental information, thus reducing overall data transmission volume.
Solution Approach 2:
The system transforms physical spatial positions into standardized grid coordinate parameters. By representing complex 3D positions as structured parameter sets (plane identification, position coordinates), the system enables efficient data compression and targeted transmission of essential communication parameters rather than raw sensory data.

AI summary
An electronic device may include: a display module for displaying a screen and receiving a user input; a memory in which computer-executable instructions are stored; and a processor for accessing the memory and executing the instructions. The processor/instructions may be configured to: overlay, with a counterpart screen displayed on the screen as the center, a polygon-shaped 3D grid including a plurality of virtual planes, if a user input for a multimedia object is received through the display module during a video call; and transmit, to a counterpart terminal, location information about a selected plane in response to the user input for the plane in which the multimedia object is to be located from among the plurality of planes, and at least some pieces of data on the multimedia object. Other various embodiments are possible.
