Solution Overview

Problem

Existing virtual portrait technologies have limited anthropomorphic capabilities and are mainly confined to scripted scenarios, requiring high development costs and manpower, and are unable to effectively interact with users in real-time based on their intentions.

Innovation Solution

A method and apparatus that receive video and audio inputs from users, analyze them to determine user intentions, and generate feedback information to create a three-dimensional virtual portrait using an animation engine, allowing for customizable and dynamic interactions by determining target expression, mouth shape, and action information based on the user's input.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If existing virtual portrait technologies are used, then high anthropomorphic effect is achieved, but the system is limited to scripted scenarios and cannot respond to user intentions in real-time

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveability to respond to user intentionsVSAvoidsystem complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The system implements a feedback mechanism where user video and audio inputs are continuously analyzed to determine intention categories, and the virtual portrait responds with generated feedback information. This closed-loop feedback enables the system to adapt to user intentions in real-time while maintaining manageable complexity through structured processing stages.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

Solution Approach 2:

The virtual portrait system performs self-service by automatically analyzing user inputs and generating appropriate responses without requiring external scripting or manual programming for each scenario. The intention category analysis and feedback generation mechanisms enable the system to handle diverse user intentions autonomously.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

2Ease of manufacture

If existing virtual portrait technologies are used, then high anthropomorphic effect is achieved, but development manpower and time costs are high

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedevelopment costVSAvoidinteraction accuracy
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of manufactureVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The system segments the complex virtual portrait interaction into distinct modules: video input processing, audio input processing, intention category analysis, feedback information generation, and virtual portrait rendering. This segmentation reduces development complexity and cost while maintaining high interaction accuracy through specialized processing for each module.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The system changes parameters dynamically based on user intentions by analyzing video and audio inputs to determine intention categories, then adjusting the virtual portrait's responses accordingly. This parameter-based approach enables adaptable interactions without requiring extensive development for each possible scenario.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

3Adaptability or versatility

If scripted scenarios are used, then development costs are reduced, but the system cannot provide tailored responses matching user intentions

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvetailored response capabilityVSAvoidprocessing complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The system uses feedback from video and audio analysis to determine user intentions and generate tailored responses. The feedback loop continuously monitors user inputs and adjusts the virtual portrait's responses accordingly, providing adaptability without requiring complex scripted scenarios for every possible interaction.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

Solution Approach 2:

The system replaces traditional mechanical scripting approaches with automated intention analysis mechanisms. Instead of programming specific responses for predefined scenarios, the system uses video and audio analysis to automatically determine user intentions and generate appropriate responses, reducing processing complexity while enhancing adaptability.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #28Mechanics substitution (Replace mechanical system)
