Virtual-Figure Conversation Interface for Traceable Message History
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing conversation modes, particularly in multimedia sessions, lack the ability to visually represent historical conversation messages and update virtual figures based on object media data, making it difficult to trace and display the history of the conversation.
Innovation Solution
A virtual-figure-based data processing method and apparatus that displays conversation interfaces with virtual figures and message regions, allowing for the update of virtual figures based on object media data such as text, images, or voice, enabling the display of historical conversation messages and real-time representation of object statuses.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If virtual figures are used to present object statuses in real time, then user engagement and presence are enhanced, but the ability to trace and display historical conversation messages is lost
Solution Approach 1:
The conversation interface is segmented into distinct functional regions: a virtual figure display region for real-time status presentation and a message display region for historical message tracing. This spatial segmentation allows both real-time interaction and historical reference to coexist without interference, resolving the contradiction between enhanced engagement and information traceability
Solution Approach 2:
The patent transitions from a single-dimensional display (either virtual figures or text messages) to a two-dimensional interface layout where vertical space is utilized to separate real-time virtual figure presentation from historical message display. This dimensional expansion enables simultaneous access to both conversation modes
2Measurement precision
If virtual figures are updated based on object media data, then real-time status representation is improved, but device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
A message processing module serves as an intermediary between media data reception and virtual figure update. This intermediary component systematically manages the transformation of diverse media data (text, images, voice) into appropriate virtual figure states, reducing overall system complexity by centralizing the processing logic
Solution Approach 2:
The virtual figure's display parameters (expression, posture, state) are dynamically changed based on incoming media data types. By modifying only the visual parameters of the virtual figure rather than its entire structure, the system achieves precise status representation with minimal processing overhead

AI summary
A virtual-figure-based data processing method and apparatus that can: display a conversation interface for a conversation between a first object and a second object, and display a first virtual figure of the first object and a second virtual figure of the second object in a virtual figure display region of the conversation interface (S101); display, in a message display region of the conversation interface in response to a trigger operation on the conversation interface, a first conversation message transmitted by the first object to the second object (S102), the first conversation message carrying first object media data associated with the first object; and update the first virtual figure to a first virtual update figure in the virtual figure display region including the second virtual figure, the first virtual update figure being obtained by updating the first virtual figure based on the first object media data (S103).
