Unified Viewing State Chart and Detail Display
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing systems fail to effectively display and analyze audience ratings per unit time for content items, making it difficult to easily confirm changes in viewing states and details at each time zone.
Innovation Solution
An information processing apparatus that acquires viewing logs and display data, displaying a chart representing the transition of viewing states along with detailed information for each time zone, including subtitles and precise information, on a unified screen, allowing for real-time monitoring and analysis.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Loss of information
If audience rating per unit time is displayed as a graph, then the change in viewing state can be confirmed, but the details at each time zone cannot be easily confirmed
Solution Approach 1:
The patent combines the graph display showing viewing state changes with detailed information display showing content details at each time zone into a single unified screen. This merging allows users to simultaneously view both the overall viewing state transition and the specific details at each time point without needing to switch between multiple screens or interfaces, thereby resolving the contradiction between preserving information and ease of confirmation.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent adds a temporal dimension to the display by showing detailed information at each time zone along the time axis of the graph. This dimensional expansion allows the display to convey both the macroscopic viewing state changes and microscopic content details simultaneously, transforming a two-dimensional graph into a multi-dimensional information presentation that includes time, viewing state, and content details.
2Loss of information
If multiple types of data are displayed separately, then complete information can be provided, but the screen becomes complex and difficult to navigate
Solution Approach 1:
The patent merges multiple data types (graph representing viewing state changes, detailed information at each time zone, and content details) into a single integrated display screen. This unified display structure maintains information completeness while avoiding the complexity of multiple separate screens or interfaces, as all information is coordinated within one visual framework with clear spatial relationships.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent applies different display qualities and densities to different regions of the screen. The graph area provides an overview of viewing state changes, while specific time zone regions provide detailed information. This local differentiation allows complex information to be organized in a way that is easy to navigate, with each region serving its specific function clearly.

AI summary
An information processing apparatus according to one aspect of the present technology acquires a viewing log of a content item including at least one of a moving image or a sound, acquires display data representing details of the content item at each time, and displays a chart representing a transition of a viewing state of the content item specified on the basis of the viewing log, and the display data representing details of the content item at each time in a time zone for which the transition of the viewing state is represented by the chart, on a screen that is one and the same. The present technology can be applied to a system used for monitoring the viewing state of the content item.
