Solution Overview

Problem

Current systems fail to integrate different services associated with the same or different entities at different physical locations and/or through different systems or platforms without reauthentication in a network, leading to inefficient use of computer, memory, and network resources due to the need for repeated authentication.

Innovation Solution

A system that allows seamless navigation through a dynamic virtual lounge in a metaverse environment without reauthentication, using a processor to authorize interactions between a user's avatar and multiple virtual sub-lounges, generating interaction datasets and tokens, and updating user profiles, thereby eliminating the need for repeated credential verification.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If user reauthentication is required for each service access, then information security is improved, but computer resources, memory resources, and network resources are wasted

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveinformation securityVSAvoidcomputer resources, memory resources, network resources
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSLoss of energy

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs preliminary authentication once when the user initially accesses the virtual lounge, storing the authentication result and user profile information. This preliminary action eliminates the need for repeated authentication when accessing multiple virtual sub-lounges, thereby conserving computer resources, memory resources, and network resources while maintaining security through the stored authentication state

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The virtual lounge system implements a universal authentication mechanism where a single authentication credential issued in the main virtual lounge is valid across multiple virtual sub-lounges. This multi-functional approach allows the same authentication token to serve multiple access purposes, eliminating redundant authentication processes and resource consumption

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)

2Adaptability or versatility

If different platforms are used for different services, then service specialization is improved, but user profile information sharing is prevented

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveservice specializationVSAvoiduser profile information sharing
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSLoss of information

Solution Approach 1:

The system merges multiple specialized service platforms into a unified virtual lounge environment where different virtual sub-lounges represent different services or entities. User profile information is consolidated and maintained centrally, allowing seamless information sharing across all sub-lounges while preserving the specialized functionality of each service through its dedicated virtual sub-lounge

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

3Adaptability or versatility

If multiple physical locations are visited for different services, then service accessibility is improved, but user convenience deteriorates

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveservice accessibilityVSAvoiduser convenience
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The system transitions from physical space to virtual space, creating a virtual lounge environment where multiple services are accessible within a single digital location. This dimensional shift allows users to access services that would traditionally require visiting multiple physical locations, thereby improving convenience while maintaining service accessibility through the virtual domain

Inventive Principle:
Principle #17Another dimension (Dimensionality change)

AI summary

A system for navigating through dynamic virtual lounges comprises a processor associated with a server. The processor is configured to access a virtual environment comprising a virtual lounge and a plurality of associated virtual sub-lounges. The processor is configured to authorize an interaction session between an avatar and the virtual lounge in response to an interaction request from a user device. The processor is configured to automatically detect and authorize the avatar to enter and interact with each virtual sub-lounge of the virtual lounge. The processor is configured to conduct multiple interactions between the avatar and the virtual sub-lounges. The processor is further configured to generate corresponding interaction datasets and interaction tokens for the avatar. The processor is further configured to generate a user interaction session dataset for the avatar based on the interaction datasets and interaction tokens.
