Solution Overview

Problem

Existing technologies fail to synchronize the actuation of electronic devices with live video feeds due to delays in analyzing and communicating drive signals, resulting in lagged actuation compared to the actions in the video.

Innovation Solution

The electronic device control system generates an action model for live video feeds to predict upcoming actions, allowing for timely actuation of electronic devices by using an action model unit that analyzes video information and predicts future actions based on past events, enabling synchronization with live video feeds.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If action analysis and drive signal generation are performed in real-time for live video feeds, then synchronization with live video actions is attempted, but the actuation lags behind the video actions due to processing and communication time

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvesynchronization accuracyVSAvoidactuation lag
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs preliminary action analysis on video frames and generates drive signals in advance before the actual video events occur. By analyzing upcoming actions and pre-generating corresponding drive signals, the system compensates for the inherent processing and communication delays, enabling the electronic device to actuate in synchronization with the video feed rather than lagging behind

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

2Speed

If rapid processing and communication of drive signals is implemented, then actuation speed is improved, but synchronization with live video actions cannot be achieved due to unavoidable processing time

AI summary

A system and method for generating a drive signal for an electronic device provides a drive signal that causes the electronic device to be actuated in synchronization with action in a video feed. A drive signal generator predicts actions that are likely to occur next in the video feed based on an action model for the video feed and based on information about action that recently occurred in the video feed. The predicted future actions are then used to generate the drive signal that is used to actuate the electronic device.
