Video Display Modification for Balanced Visual Proportions
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Video conferencing systems often display participants' videos at different sizes due to varying capture and display resolutions, leading to aesthetically unbalanced presentations, which can be distracting and disrupt the visual harmony of the conference environment.
Innovation Solution
A video modification process that analyzes the share of display space occupied by each participant's video and applies a zoom operation to ensure that all objects are displayed at similar sizes, using a computing system to identify and initiate modifications based on the relative share of display space, thereby maintaining visual proportionality.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If video of participants is displayed in display windows with varying sizes based on capture and display resolutions, then the system can accommodate different devices and resolutions, but the visual presentation becomes unbalanced and aesthetically displeasing
Solution Approach 1:
The system dynamically adjusts the size of video display windows based on real-time analysis of display space occupancy. The zoom operation is applied selectively to videos that occupy excessive space, creating a balanced visual presentation that adapts to different capture and display resolutions while maintaining aesthetic harmony
Solution Approach 2:
The system changes the display parameters (size and zoom level) of video windows to achieve visual balance. By analyzing the share of display space occupied by each video and applying zoom operations, the system transforms the visual presentation from unbalanced to aesthetically pleasing while preserving device compatibility
2Manufacturing precision
If video windows are displayed with different sizes according to their original capture resolution, then the system preserves the original video quality, but the relative proportion of display space creates visual distraction
Solution Approach 1:
The system introduces an intermediary processing step that analyzes the display space occupancy of each video window and applies selective zoom operations. This intermediary layer reconciles the conflict between preserving original video quality and eliminating visual distraction by adjusting only the display proportions without degrading the underlying video quality
3Shape
If the system applies zoom operations to equalize video sizes, then visual aesthetics are improved, but additional processing complexity is introduced
Solution Approach 1:
The system employs automated analysis of display space occupancy and self-adjusts video window sizes through selective zoom operations. This self-service approach improves visual aesthetics without requiring manual intervention, and the automated nature of the process minimizes the perceived complexity by handling adjustments transparently

AI summary
Provided herein are systems, methods, and software for facilitating a video environment. In at least one implementation, video of at least a first object to be displayed in the video environment is received. Video of at least a second object is also received which is to be displayed with the first object in the video environment. A zoom operation is identified to be performed on the first object to reduce a difference between a size of the first object and a size of the second object. The zoom operation is then performed on the video of the first object. In response to the zoom operation, the first object and the second object are displayed in the video environment.
