Solution Overview

Problem

Current video interaction platforms lack the ability for users to engage in private domain interactions with specific groups of viewers, limiting the depth and efficiency of viewer engagement.

Innovation Solution

Implementing a private domain interaction portal in the video playing interface that allows users to select and create interaction channels based on their preferences, enabling targeted interactions with specific viewer groups or individuals.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If a public chat area is provided for all viewers, then viewer interaction is supported, but users cannot engage in private domain interactions with specific viewer groups

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveinteraction mode diversityVSAvoidinteraction portal structure
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The interaction portal is segmented into multiple interaction channels (public chat area, interest-based channels, custom channels) that can be independently selected and managed. Each channel serves a specific interaction purpose, allowing users to choose between public and private domain interactions based on their needs.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The interaction portal is designed as a multi-functional system that combines public chat capabilities with private domain interaction channels. The same portal structure supports both public viewing interactions and targeted private interactions, eliminating the need for separate systems.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)

2Adaptability or versatility

If multiple interaction channels are provided, then users can select specific viewer groups, but the interface complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvechannel selection capabilityVSAvoidinterface usability
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The interaction channel list dynamically adapts to user actions and video content. Channels are displayed, hidden, or reordered based on user preferences, viewing history, and video relevance, making the interface responsive rather than static and overwhelming.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

Solution Approach 2:

Interaction channels are pre-configured and organized before user interaction. The system automatically categorizes channels by interest tags and prepares them in an accessible format, so users don't need to manually organize complex channel structures during interaction.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

3Adaptability or versatility

If interaction channels are manually created and searched, then custom interactions are possible, but time consumption increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecustom channel creationVSAvoidchannel location time
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The system automatically creates and manages interaction channels based on user behavior and video content. Interest-based channels are generated automatically when users engage with specific content, and the system handles channel organization without requiring manual user intervention for each interaction scenario.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

Solution Approach 2:

The system continuously monitors user interaction patterns and provides feedback by suggesting relevant interaction channels. Based on viewing history and engagement data, the system proactively presents appropriate channels, reducing the time users need to search manually.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback
