Solution Overview

Problem

Converting video content into HTML pages is complex due to the large amount of content, visual components, and the need to determine page relationships, element inclusion, and styles, making it time-consuming and challenging to record and integrate effectively.

Innovation Solution

A method that involves obtaining video data, dividing it into fragments based on page detection, extracting elements, determining element types and styles, and generating page flow to create HTML pages from the video content.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Manufacturing precision

If video content is converted directly into HTML pages without fragmentation, then the complete content is preserved, but the complexity of processing and time required increase significantly

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecontent preservation accuracyVSAvoidprocessing time
Core Design Contradiction:
Manufacturing precisionVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The patent divides video content into multiple video fragments based on page detection, where each fragment corresponds to a specific page or section. This segmentation allows the system to process smaller units independently, significantly reducing overall processing time while maintaining complete content preservation through systematic reconstruction of HTML pages from all fragments.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

2Loss of information

If all video content is processed at once, then complete content is captured, but the system complexity and computational resources required increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecontent completenessVSAvoidsystem complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Loss of informationVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The system segments video content into discrete fragments and processes each fragment through independent analysis stages (element extraction, type determination, style generation). This modular approach reduces system complexity by breaking down the monolithic processing task into manageable, reusable components while ensuring complete content capture through comprehensive processing of all fragments.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The patent performs preliminary page detection to identify fragment boundaries before element extraction and analysis. This preliminary action organizes the video content structure in advance, simplifying subsequent processing steps and reducing overall system complexity by establishing a clear workflow hierarchy.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

3Productivity

If video content is divided into fragments, then processing efficiency improves, but the complexity of determining page relationships and element inclusion increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveprocessing efficiencyVSAvoidpage relationship analysis complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs preliminary page detection to identify fragment boundaries and establish page relationships before element extraction. This preliminary structuring creates a reference framework that simplifies subsequent element inclusion determination, as the system already knows which fragments correspond to which pages and how they should be organized.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The patent introduces an intermediate page structure layer between video fragments and final HTML output. This intermediary represents the logical page organization and serves as a mediator that simplifies the mapping between fragmented video content and the target HTML page structure, making element inclusion and relationship determination more straightforward.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

4Manufacturing precision

If manual methods are used to convert video to HTML, then quality control is easier, but productivity and automation level are low

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvequality controlVSAvoidconversion speed
Core Design Contradiction:
Manufacturing precisionVSProductivity

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs automated element extraction, type determination, and style generation without manual intervention. The algorithm independently analyzes video fragments, identifies relevant elements, determines their types, and generates appropriate HTML code and styling, enabling high-speed automated conversion while maintaining consistent quality through standardized processing rules.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service
