Video Interface Drag Triggering for Hidden Multimedia Content
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing methods for triggering hidden information in video interfaces, such as 'easter eggs', are limited by the number of predetermined identification triggering areas, leading to conflicts and a lack of diversity in triggering methods, which restricts the quantity and flexibility of hidden content.
Innovation Solution
A method involving a video playing interface with a component container and a video container, where a trigger gesture identifies a component, allowing for a drag gesture to move the component identification to a target position, thereby displaying hidden information, enhancing flexibility and quantity of hidden content.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If predetermined identification triggering areas are used to trigger hidden information, then the triggering method is simple, but the quantity and diversity of hidden content is limited
Solution Approach 1:
The patent transforms static predetermined triggering areas into dynamic drag trajectories. Users can trigger hidden information by dragging components along arbitrary paths, converting a fixed-position triggering mechanism into a dynamic trajectory-based mechanism. This increases diversity of triggering methods while maintaining operational simplicity.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent adds a spatial dimension to the triggering mechanism by allowing drag gestures to move components across the screen to reveal hidden information. This transforms a zero-dimensional point-triggering mechanism into a two-dimensional area-based triggering mechanism, significantly increasing the diversity of triggering methods.
2Quantity of substance
If multiple predetermined identification triggering areas are set, then more hidden content can be triggered, but conflicts occur between triggering areas
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments the triggering mechanism into multiple independent drag trajectories, each associated with specific hidden information. Instead of having overlapping triggering areas, each hidden content element has its own designated drag path, eliminating conflicts while allowing multiple pieces of hidden content to coexist.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent introduces drag trajectories as intermediaries between the user's triggering action and the hidden information. The trajectory acts as a mediator that guides the component to the correct position, preventing direct conflicts between multiple triggering areas while enabling multiple hidden content elements.
3Ease of operation
If traditional triggering methods are used, then the interface is simple, but user interaction is limited
Solution Approach 1:
The patent makes the drag gesture a universal triggering mechanism that can reveal multiple types of hidden information (e.g., easter eggs, promotional content, interactive elements). A single drag operation can trigger different content types depending on the trajectory, providing multi-functionality while maintaining ease of operation.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent enables the video player interface to automatically reveal hidden information based on user drag gestures without requiring additional buttons or complex controls. The system self-services by detecting the drag trajectory and automatically triggering the appropriate hidden content, enhancing user interaction while keeping the interface clean.
Data Source
AI summary
The embodiment of the disclosure provides a method for triggering a multimedia component, an apparatus, an electronic device and a storage medium. A target video is played in a video playing interface. In response to a trigger gesture for an identification triggering area in the video playing interface, a component identification is displayed. In response to a drag gesture for the component identification, the component identification is moved. Hidden information is displayed in the video playing interface in response to the component identification moved to a target position.
