Video Conference Image Overlay for Precise Shared-Content Pointing
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
During video conferences, it is difficult for participants other than the host to quickly and accurately point specific areas of shared content using voice or text feedback, leading to potential misunderstandings and reduced situational awareness.
Innovation Solution
An electronic device is equipped with a processor that analyzes shared images, identifies key objects, and generates a grid-based overlay to facilitate precise pointing and feedback, allowing participants to interact more accurately with the shared content.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If a user equipment simultaneously receives and transmits data through relay nodes in a video conference system, then communication continuity is maintained during handover, but transmission delay increases due to the relay path
Solution Approach 1:
The network side device acts as an intermediary by receiving data from the source relay node and forwarding it to the target relay node. This mediator approach ensures continuous data flow during handover without requiring direct peer-to-peer communication between relay nodes, maintaining reliability while managing delay through centralized control
Solution Approach 2:
The network side device pre-establishes the data transmission path to the target relay node before the handover is complete. By performing preliminary actions of setting up the forward path in advance, the system ensures seamless continuity when the user equipment switches relay nodes, eliminating interruption delays
2Measurement precision
If the user equipment switches relay nodes during data reception, then signal quality is improved by selecting optimal relay, but communication interruption occurs during the switching process
Solution Approach 1:
The network side device receives indication information from the user equipment about the desired relay node switch and uses this feedback to proactively forward data to the target relay node. This feedback mechanism enables the system to adapt to the user's optimal relay selection while maintaining continuous communication through coordinated data forwarding
Solution Approach 2:
The network side device serves as a mediator that coordinates the relay node switching process. It receives data from the current relay node and simultaneously forwards it to the target relay node based on indication information, ensuring that the transition between relays does not cause communication interruption
3Device complexity
If direct peer-to-peer communication is used between relay nodes, then system complexity is reduced, but data transmission cannot continue when relay nodes change
Solution Approach 1:
The network side device acts as a central intermediary that all relay nodes communicate with for data forwarding during handover. This centralized mediation approach maintains transmission continuity by ensuring data flows through the network controller rather than requiring complex peer-to-peer coordination between relay nodes, thus preserving reliability without excessive complexity
