Video Special Effect Configuration with Correlated Variable Nodes
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing video special effect systems lack correlation between special effect event combinations, limiting the enhancement of video special effects and reducing user enthusiasm in video recording.
Innovation Solution
The method correlates first and second special effect event combinations through a variable update node and a variable trigger node by setting an update manner and judging condition on the same target variable, allowing the display manner of video effects to be updated and transformed.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If separate special effect event combinations are used without correlation, then each special effect can be independently configured, but the overall video special effect enhancement is limited and user enthusiasm is reduced
Solution Approach 1:
The patent merges multiple separate special effect event combinations into a correlated system where event combinations share common variables (e.g., trigger count, time intervals). This allows different special effects to be linked through shared state, enabling progressive effect accumulation and more engaging user interactions while maintaining independent configuration capabilities for each effect type.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent introduces universal variable nodes (trigger count, time interval) that can be shared across multiple special effect event combinations. These universal variables serve multiple functions: tracking cumulative trigger counts, managing time intervals between different effects, and enabling coordinated special effect sequences. This multi-functionality reduces overall system complexity while enhancing versatility.
2Productivity
If multiple special effect event combinations are correlated through shared variables, then continuous and varied special effect triggers are enabled, but the configuration complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments the configuration into distinct variable nodes (trigger count variable, time interval variable) and event combination nodes. Each variable node can be independently configured and reused across multiple event combinations. This segmentation allows complex correlated behavior to be built from simple, reusable components, making the configuration more manageable despite the increased functionality.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent introduces variable nodes as intermediaries between different special effect event combinations. These variable nodes (trigger count, time interval) act as mediators that carry state information between events, enabling correlated behavior without direct event-to-event coupling. This intermediary layer simplifies the configuration structure by providing a standardized interface for event interaction.
