Solution Overview

Problem

Current virtual pet games lack realism in user interaction, leading to low human-computer interaction rates and poor interaction effects, as users must perform game tasks to upgrade virtual pets rather than engaging with real-like experiences.

Innovation Solution

A video processing method that allows users to interact with real creature videos, where resources can be transmitted and exchanged for real supplies, enhancing the realism and convenience of pet care by integrating resource transmission access within the video playback process.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Productivity

If users interact with virtual pets through game tasks, then resource acquisition is achieved, but interaction realism deteriorates

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveresource acquisition efficiencyVSAvoidinteraction realism
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The patent uses video copies of real creatures instead of actual physical interaction. Users watch video recordings of real pets performing actions, and through this video interaction, can acquire resources and feed the creatures. This copying approach maintains interaction realism by showing actual creature behavior while enabling resource acquisition through video playback and interaction interfaces.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #26Copying

2Adaptability or versatility

If additional interfaces are added for resource transmission, then resource exchange functionality is improved, but device complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveresource exchange functionalityVSAvoidinterface complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent merges the resource transmission interface with the video playback interface. The resource transmission access is embedded directly within the video display area, allowing users to perform resource exchange operations without navigating to separate interfaces. This integration combines multiple functions (video playback, resource transmission, creature feeding) into a unified interface, reducing overall system complexity while maintaining versatile functionality.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

3Ease of operation

If resource transmission access is embedded in video, then user engagement is improved, but video processing complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveuser engagementVSAvoidvideo processing complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent segments the video display area into functional zones: the main video playback area and the embedded resource transmission access area. The resource transmission access is positioned at specific locations within or adjacent to the video, creating distinct interaction zones. This segmentation allows users to easily engage with both video content and resource transmission functions without confusion, while the modular structure helps manage video processing complexity by separating display and interaction elements.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

AI summary

A video processing method includes playing a first video posted by a first account, the first video being obtained by photographing a real creature, the first video including a resource transmission access, the resource transmission access instructing to transmit a first type of resource to the first account, and the first type of resource being exchanged for a target type of supply used by the real creature in the first video, and transmitting, based on a triggering operation for the resource transmission access during the playing of the first video, the first type of resource of a second account currently logged in to the first account.
