Video Reception Device Viewer Count Display Control
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current video receiving systems lack an effective method to appropriately display configuration and associated information related to video content, particularly in scenarios where the number of viewers and mobile terminal identifiers need to be considered for tailored information dissemination.
Innovation Solution
A video receiving apparatus equipped with a receiver, extractor, information forming controller, number-of-viewer detector, communicator, and display controller, which extracts partial content from video, forms configuration information, detects viewer numbers, and selectively transmits this information to mobile terminals based on identifiers, allowing for display on both primary and secondary displays accordingly.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Loss of information
If configuration information is displayed on the primary display, then information visibility is improved, but video content visibility deteriorates due to information overload
Solution Approach 1:
The patent divides the information display into two segments: configuration information is displayed on the primary display, while associated information is transmitted to and displayed on secondary mobile terminal displays. This segmentation allows the primary display to maintain video content visibility while ensuring information is not lost through the secondary display mechanism.
2Adaptability or versatility
If information is transmitted to multiple mobile terminals, then information dissemination is improved, but system complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The system employs automatic detection of the number of viewers and automatic transmission of associated information to the corresponding number of mobile terminals. This self-service mechanism eliminates the need for manual configuration and reduces system complexity while maintaining adaptable information dissemination to multiple terminals based on viewer count.
3Ease of operation
If associated information is displayed on mobile terminals, then user experience is improved, but information loss increases due to selective transmission
Solution Approach 1:
The patent extracts associated information from the primary display and transmits it selectively to mobile terminal displays based on the number of viewers detected. This extraction allows the primary display to maintain video content visibility while ensuring that relevant configuration information is not lost by being transmitted to and displayed on secondary mobile terminals.

AI summary
A video receiving apparatus includes a receiver, a first display, an extractor, an information forming controller, a number-of-viewer detector, a communicator, and a display controller, leading to appropriate display of configuration information and associated information of a video content. The extractor extracts a partial content from the video content. The information forming controller forms the configuration information from the partial content. The number-of-viewer detector detects the number of viewers present within a predetermined area. The communicator receives an identifier transmitted from a mobile terminal having a second display. The display controller can selectively display the configuration information on the second display of the mobile terminal identified by the identifier, and displays the configuration information on at least one of the first and second displays based on the number of the viewers and the number of the identifiers.
