Video Data Generation Device Seamless Loop Playback
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current methods lack an efficient technique for preparing video data that can be seamlessly looped for repeated playback, requiring significant data preparation and lacking a straightforward way to ensure the first and last images of the video appear connected.
Innovation Solution
A method and device that determine whether a video of a moving object's path satisfies specific conditions for repeated playback, generating video data accordingly and warning the user if not, by designating movement paths and object directions within a user interface.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Productivity
If short-time video data is prepared and played repeatedly to reduce data preparation load, then the data preparation burden is reduced, but the video cannot be seamlessly looped for repeated playback
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs preliminary analysis of the movement path to determine in advance whether the path satisfies the conditions for seamless looping (start point coincides with end point, and object orientation matches at both endpoints). This preliminary determination allows the system to prepare appropriate video data before playback, ensuring seamless continuity while maintaining preparation efficiency.
Solution Approach 2:
The system provides feedback to the user by displaying warnings when the movement path does not satisfy the conditions for seamless playback. This feedback mechanism guides users to adjust the movement path or object parameters, enabling them to create loopable videos while maintaining high preparation efficiency through automated validation.
2Adaptability or versatility
If the movement path is freely set without constraints, then the user has high flexibility in creating video content, but the video cannot be seamlessly looped for repeated playback
Solution Approach 1:
The system dynamically evaluates the movement path based on the specific content and characteristics of each video. Rather than imposing fixed constraints, the system adaptively determines whether a given path satisfies looping conditions, allowing maximum flexibility while ensuring loop compatibility when applicable.
Solution Approach 2:
The system provides real-time feedback to users about whether their freely-set movement paths satisfy the conditions for seamless playback. When conditions are not met, the system displays warnings that guide users to make minimal adjustments, thereby maintaining high flexibility while achieving loop compatibility.
3Device complexity
If no automatic determination of playback equivalence is implemented, then the system remains simple, but users cannot easily identify whether their video is suitable for repeated playback
Solution Approach 1:
The system automatically performs self-validation by analyzing the movement path and determining whether it satisfies the conditions for seamless playback. This self-service capability eliminates the need for complex user manual checks while maintaining system simplicity, as the automatic determination is integrated into the existing video preparation workflow.
Solution Approach 2:
The system provides automatic feedback to users by displaying warnings when the movement path does not satisfy playback equivalence conditions. This feedback mechanism enhances ease of operation by clearly indicating whether a video is suitable for repeated playback without adding significant system complexity.

AI summary
An information processing device generating video data representing a video of a moving object in response to an instruction by a user includes a decision unit, a determination unit, a generation unit, and a warning unit. The decision unit decides a movement path of the object, based on an instruction by the user. The determination unit determines whether an object video showing the object moving along the movement path decided by the decision unit is equivalent to a video for repeated playback or not, based on the movement path. The generation unit generates video data based on the object video when the object video is determined by the determination unit as equivalent to the video for repeated playback. The warning unit warns the user when the object video is determined by the determination unit as not equivalent to the video for repeated playback.
