Video Content Deep Diving via Tagged Element Interaction
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Users often fail to identify and learn about entities depicted in videos, such as locations or objects, due to lack of information, as videos may not provide sufficient details or context, leading to missed opportunities for further research or engagement.
Innovation Solution
Implementing a system where video elements are tagged with content tags, allowing users to interact with these elements through gestures, such as pressure-sensitive touches, to retrieve and display associated content, like metadata, search results, or purchase interfaces, directly within the video player interface.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Loss of information
If users manually search for information about video elements, then they can find detailed information, but it requires time and effort to leave the video player and perform searches
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs preliminary actions by automatically tagging video elements with metadata and content information before user interaction. This pre-processing enables instant information retrieval when users interact with video elements, eliminating the need for manual searches and reducing time loss.
Solution Approach 2:
The system introduces an intermediary layer between the video player and information sources. Content tags and metadata act as intermediaries that bridge video elements and external information, allowing users to access detailed information directly within the video player without leaving the interface.
2Loss of information
If videos provide detailed information about entities, then users can learn more, but it increases video complexity and may distract from the main content
Solution Approach 1:
The system segments information delivery by separating core video content from supplementary information. Video elements are tagged with metadata that can be independently accessed, allowing users to obtain detailed information about specific entities without adding complexity or distractions to the main video flow.
Solution Approach 2:
The system implements dynamic information provision where detailed content is revealed only when users interact with specific video elements. This on-demand approach maintains video simplicity during playback while providing comprehensive information when needed, adapting the information level to user needs.
3Ease of operation
If users interact with video elements during playback, then they can access additional information, but it may interrupt the viewing experience
Solution Approach 1:
The system allows partial interaction where users can choose to engage with video elements only when interested. The tagging system provides optional access to information without forcing interactions, enabling users to maintain viewing continuity while having the option to explore additional information when desired.
Data Source
AI summary
One or more computing devices, systems, and/or methods for displaying content associated with a video element of a video are provided. For example, a video may comprise video elements (e.g., pixels of frames of the video depicting an entity such as a car, an actor, a monument, etc.) that are tagged with content tags (e.g., a textual string such as a search query used to obtain content from content providers). When a user interacts with the video element (e.g., a touch gesture, such as a pressure sensitive gesture, on a video element depicting the actor), content associated with a content tag used to tag the video element may be retrieved (e.g., an image, a social network profile, search results, and/or other content associated with the actor). In this way, the content may be provided to the user for further action or learning about the entity depicted by the video element.
