Virtual Space Experience Sharing for Spatial Content Interaction
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing social network services (SNS) platforms limit user interaction and content creation, as opinions on shared content are confined to separate web pages, bulletin boards, or comment sections, hindering active experiences and interactive communication between users.
Innovation Solution
A method and system that support experience sharing by acquiring spatial information on shared content, determining a virtual space associated with the content and user time point, and allowing users to create and share authored content within this virtual space, enabling interactive communication and spatial connection between users.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If opinions on shared content are exchanged on separate web pages, bulletin boards, or comment sections, then the system structure is simple and easy to implement, but user interaction is passive and interactive communication between users is hindered
Solution Approach 1:
The patent merges the shared content viewing area with the comment section into a unified virtual space. Users can view shared content and leave comments within the same spatial environment, transforming passive separate interactions into active collaborative experiences. This integration enables users to author additional contents and interact with other users directly within the virtual space associated with the shared content.
2Adaptability or versatility
If users can only view and comment on shared content without professional editing knowledge, then the system is easy to use, but users cannot author additional contents on the basis of contents created by other users
Solution Approach 1:
The patent enables users to copy and reproduce shared content within the virtual space without requiring professional editing knowledge. Users can create their own contents based on the shared content structure, and these authored contents are automatically shared with other users present in the virtual space. This copying mechanism allows ordinary users to participate in content creation collaboratively.
3Illumination intensity
If shared content is provided without spatial information and time point context, then the delivery system is simple, but the content cannot be experienced vividly in a virtual space associated with specific time points
Solution Approach 1:
The patent adds spatial and temporal dimensions to shared content delivery. Instead of providing content through traditional flat interfaces, the system creates virtual spaces with spatial coordinates and associates them with specific time points. Users experience content vividly by interacting with the virtual space at the designated time, enabling immersive engagement with the shared content context.
4Productivity
If multiple users are present at different time points with shared content, then user engagement is enhanced, but coordinating the virtual space experience becomes complex
Solution Approach 1:
The patent creates a universal virtual space that serves multiple functions: displaying shared content, enabling user interactions, supporting content authoring, and coordinating users from different time points. The virtual space acts as a multi-functional platform where all users, regardless of their temporal presence, can engage with the content and each other through unified interfaces and coordination mechanisms.

AI summary
There is provided a method for supporting experience sharing between users. The method includes the steps of: acquiring spatial information on a shared content for experience sharing; determining a virtual space in which the shared content is to be provided to a user, with reference to the spatial information on the shared content and time point information associated with the user; and in response to the user creating an authored content in the virtual space, sharing the authored content with respect to a location matched with a location where the authored content is created in the virtual space.
