Virtual Meeting Dashboard for Automatic Embedded Graphics Extraction
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
During virtual meetings, participants often miss key information as they have to manually copy or request web links and graphics from the presenter, leading to wasted time and reduced productivity.
Innovation Solution
A method to automatically extract and transmit embedded graphics such as web links and images from a presenter's computing device to participant devices, where they can be displayed in a customizable virtual meeting dashboard, allowing participants to access relevant content independently.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Loss of information
If participants manually copy or request web links and graphics from the presenter, then they can obtain presentation content, but it leads to wasted time and reduced productivity
Solution Approach 1:
The system extracts embedded graphics and web links from the presentation in advance and makes them available to participants before or during the meeting. This preliminary preparation eliminates the need for participants to manually request or copy content during the meeting, thus preserving information access while maintaining productivity.
Solution Approach 2:
The system automatically extracts and transmits copies of embedded graphics and web links from the presenter's device to participant devices. This automated copying process replaces manual copying methods, ensuring participants receive presentation content without the time loss associated with manual retrieval.
2Loss of information
If participants manually retrieve presentation content during meetings, then they can access information, but it causes disruptions and time loss
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs extraction and preparation of presentation content beforehand, so that when participants need information, it is already available to them. This eliminates the time spent on manual retrieval during the meeting while ensuring complete information access.
Solution Approach 2:
Participants can independently access extracted presentation content through the virtual meeting dashboard without needing to interrupt the presenter or manually request materials. This self-service capability reduces both time loss and disruptions by allowing participants to retrieve information autonomously.
3Loss of information
If all embedded graphics are transmitted to participants, then they gain complete access to content, but sensitive information may be exposed
Solution Approach 1:
The system applies different transmission rules to different types of embedded graphics based on their sensitivity. Non-sensitive graphics are transmitted to all participants, while sensitive graphics are filtered or restricted. This localized quality approach ensures complete content accessibility for appropriate materials while protecting sensitive information from exposure.
Solution Approach 2:
The system introduces an intermediary filtering mechanism that automatically identifies and classifies embedded graphics before transmission. This intermediary layer analyzes each graphic to determine its sensitivity level, allowing the system to selectively transmit content and prevent harmful information exposure while maintaining accessibility for safe content.
