Virtual Space Matching Interface for Real-World Person Identification
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Identifying a matched person in the real world based on matching results is time-consuming and laborious using existing systems.
Innovation Solution
A system that generates a virtual space image on a mobile terminal, incorporating a user's position and a corresponding icon, allowing for easy visual identification of the matched person in the real world by linking the virtual space with real-world data.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Loss of information
If a matching result is provided without visual spatial representation, then information about the other person can be transmitted, but it becomes time-consuming and laborious for the user to accurately identify the matched person in the real world
Solution Approach 1:
The patent overlays a two-dimensional virtual space image containing user icons onto the three-dimensional real-world camera view. This dimensional integration allows users to see both the real-world environment and the virtual representation of other users simultaneously, enabling rapid identification of matched persons without separate browsing actions.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent creates virtual copies (icons) of users in the real-world space based on their position coordinates. These icon images represent actual users in the physical environment, allowing users to identify matched persons by locating their corresponding icons in the overlaid virtual space image rather than searching through lists or profiles.
2Loss of information
If detailed information about the other person is displayed separately, then complete information can be provided, but the user experience becomes more complex and less intuitive
Solution Approach 1:
The patent merges the camera view, virtual space image, user icons, and interaction interfaces into a single integrated display. The notification icon is overlaid on the camera view with direct interaction capability, eliminating the need for separate screens or detailed profile pages while maintaining complete functional information access.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent extracts only the essential identification elements (user icons with position markers) from the complete user profile information and displays them directly in the camera view. Detailed profile information can be accessed on-demand through simple interactions with the icons, rather than presenting all information simultaneously.
Data Source
AI summary
A program causes a processor to acquire a first position coordinate indicating a position of a first mobile terminal of a first user, and acquire a second position coordinate indicating a position of a second mobile terminal of a second user. The program causes the processor to generate a virtual space image including a space corresponding to a real space in a predetermined area including the first position coordinate, and a second user icon corresponding to the second position coordinate in the real space. The program causes the processor to cause the first mobile terminal to display the virtual space image. The program causes the processor to acquire data associated with the second user and cause the first mobile terminal to display data associated with the second user by linking the data with the virtual space image.
