Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Quantity of substance

If video advertising is added to generate additional revenue streams, then advertising revenue is improved, but the advertisements are not tailored to customers and fail to meet market demands for personalized content

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveadvertising revenueVSAvoidpersonalization capability
Core Design Contradiction:
Quantity of substanceVSAdaptability or versatility

Solution Approach 1:

The patent segments the video content into multiple layers including background video layers and foreground personalization elements. This allows different portions of the video to be independently customized for different viewers while maintaining the overall video structure, enabling personalized advertising without requiring complete video regeneration for each customer.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The system pre-generates multiple video layers and personalization elements in advance, storing them for rapid assembly during video generation. This preliminary preparation enables quick customization of personalized videos for different viewers without time-consuming processing during delivery, resolving the contradiction between revenue-generating speed and personalization quality.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

2Adaptability or versatility

If personalized video content is created to meet market demands, then viewer engagement is improved, but the complexity of video generation and processing increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvepersonalization capabilityVSAvoidvideo generation complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

By dividing the video into separate layers (background video, personalization elements, advertising content), the system reduces the complexity of generating personalized videos. Each layer can be independently processed and stored, and then quickly assembled using template-based approaches rather than complete video generation for each viewer.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The patent uses template-based personalization where pre-designed video templates and personalization element templates are stored and copied/combined with specific viewer data. This copying approach significantly reduces generation complexity compared to creating unique personalized videos from scratch for each viewer, while still maintaining high personalization capability.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #26Copying

3Manufacturing precision

If multiple video layers and personalization elements are integrated, then personalized video quality is improved, but the processing time and computational resources required increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvevideo qualityVSAvoidprocessing time
Core Design Contradiction:
Manufacturing precisionVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs preliminary processing of video content into standardized layers and stores personalization elements in advance. This pre-processing creates ready-to-use components that can be quickly assembled during video generation, maintaining high video quality through careful layer design while minimizing processing time during actual personalized video delivery.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

By using pre-defined templates and copying proven high-quality layer structures, the system maintains consistent video quality across personalized videos without re-processing the entire video each time. The template copying approach preserves quality standards while dramatically reducing processing time compared to creating each video from scratch.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #26Copying

AI summary

A system is described. The system includes at least one physical memory device to store a content editor and one or more processors coupled with the at least one physical memory device to execute the content editor to receive a selection of a video frame of a background video file displayed within in a graphical user interface (GUI), generate one or more personalization elements indicating personalized data that is to appear in a reference video associated with the background video file, apply the one or more personalization elements to the selected video frame and generate a design file including the one or more personalization elements.
