In-Feed Video People Tagging for Social Interaction Without UI Overload
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Users have increasing experience requirements for social networks, particularly in terms of interaction and engagement with video content, which existing technologies have not adequately addressed.
Innovation Solution
A video processing method and apparatus that enables users to tag people in videos, display tagging results in-feed, and allow editing of tags after posting, with interactive interfaces and notifications for tagged users.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If video content is displayed in social network feed, then user engagement increases, but user experience requirements are not adequately met
Solution Approach 1:
The patent combines multiple interaction functions (tagging, notification, profile viewing, video playback) into a unified feed interface. When a user interacts with a tagged person indicator in the video feed, it triggers a comprehensive response that includes displaying the tagged person's profile information and playing the video simultaneously, merging multiple user needs into a single interaction flow.
Solution Approach 2:
The tagged person indicator serves multiple functions: it acts as a visual marker in the video, a clickable interaction element, a notification trigger, and a profile access point. The system universally handles different user actions (clicking, hovering, scrolling) through the same indicator, providing versatile interaction capabilities within the video feed context.
2Adaptability or versatility
If tagging functionality is added to enhance interaction, then social engagement improves, but system complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent extracts the tagging information from the complex video data structure and presents it as a separate, dedicated visual indicator overlaying the video content. This extracted indicator can be independently processed, clicked, and responded to without complicating the underlying video playback system, separating the tagging functionality from the core video processing pipeline.
Solution Approach 2:
The tagged person indicator acts as an intermediary element between the video content and the user interaction system. It mediates between the raw video data and the complex social interaction features (notifications, profile viewing, commenting), providing a simple, unified interface that simplifies the overall system architecture while enabling rich social interactions.
3Productivity
If tagging results are displayed in-feed, then user engagement increases, but information overload occurs
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies local quality by making the tagged person indicator visually distinct from other video elements through specific styling (overlays, icons, or annotations). This localized visual enhancement draws user attention to the tagging information without requiring changes to the entire video interface, concentrating the information presentation in a specific, manageable location.
Solution Approach 2:
The tagged person indicator dynamically adjusts its visibility and interaction behavior based on user actions. It can appear or disappear based on playback position, change appearance on hover, and trigger different responses based on user engagement level. This dynamic behavior allows the system to provide rich information when needed while maintaining a clean interface during normal playback.
Data Source
AI summary
This disclosure relates to a video processing method, a video processing apparatus, and a computer-readable storage medium. The video processing method includes: receiving a tagging result on at least one first user related to a video; displaying the tagging result in-feed; and in response to a selection instruction triggered by a second user on the tagging result displayed in-feed in the video, displaying a tagging list of the at least one first user.
