Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If virtual object-based interaction functions are expanded to meet diverse user requirements, then user experience and interaction richness are improved, but system complexity and resource consumption increase

Engineering Contradiction:

Improveinteraction function diversityVSAvoidsystem complexity

Core Design Contradiction:

Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent segments virtual objects into different types (first virtual objects for current user, second virtual objects for other users, third virtual objects for group interactions) with distinct triggering mechanisms. This segmentation allows the system to manage complexity by handling different interaction scenarios separately while maintaining overall system versatility.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The virtual scene page serves multiple functions: displaying user identifiers, presenting various types of virtual objects, handling different trigger operations, and coordinating group interactions. This multi-functionality approach consolidates diverse interaction capabilities into a unified system framework, improving adaptability without proportionally increasing complexity.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)

2Illumination intensity

If multiple types of virtual objects with animations and sound effects are implemented, then visual and auditory feedback are enhanced, but resource consumption and processing load increase

Engineering Contradiction:

Improvevisual feedback qualityVSAvoidresource consumption

Core Design Contradiction:

Illumination intensityVSUse of energy by moving object

Solution Approach 1:

Different virtual objects have differentiated properties: first virtual objects use tap operations for triggering, second virtual objects use proximity-based triggering, and third virtual objects require cumulative tap counts. This local quality differentiation allows the system to provide rich visual and auditory feedback tailored to each interaction type while optimizing resource consumption based on interaction frequency and user intent.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #3Local quality

Solution Approach 2:

The patent implements cumulative tap counting for third virtual objects, where multiple taps are required to trigger the virtual object. This partial action approach allows the system to accumulate user engagement over time before consuming resources for animation and sound effect playback, balancing feedback quality with resource management.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #16Partial or excessive action

3Adaptability or versatility

If group interaction features are added to the virtual scene, then social interaction capabilities are improved, but system complexity and coordination requirements increase

Engineering Contradiction:

Improvesocial interaction capabilityVSAvoidcoordination complexity

Core Design Contradiction:

Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The virtual scene page acts as an intermediary that coordinates interactions between multiple users. It manages user identifiers, tracks tap operations from different users, and triggers appropriate virtual objects based on group engagement. This intermediary approach enables complex social interactions while maintaining manageable system coordination through a centralized control mechanism.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

Solution Approach 2:

The patent merges individual user interactions into group-level actions. Multiple users' tap operations are combined and counted collectively, and when the cumulative count reaches a threshold, a shared virtual object is triggered. This merging approach simplifies coordination by aggregating individual actions into unified group interactions rather than managing each user-action pair separately.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #5Merging (Combining)

AI summary

The disclosure provides a virtual object processing method, device, and a storage medium. The method includes: First, a virtual scene page corresponding to a target virtual space is displayed, where user identifiers respectively corresponding to a first user and at least one second user included in the target virtual space are presented on the virtual scene page. Then, a first virtual object is determined for the first user based on the virtual scene page. A first virtual resource corresponding to the first virtual object is presented on the virtual scene page in response to receiving a preset trigger operation for the first virtual object, where the first virtual resource includes an animation and a sound effect configured for the first virtual object.
