Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Identifying a matched person in the real world based on a matching result 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 icon and associated data, allowing for easy visual identification of the matched person in the real world by linking the virtual space to the real-world location.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Measurement precision
If a matching result is provided through existing systems, then communication between persons in a predetermined area is enabled, but it is time-consuming and laborious for the person to accurately identify the other person indicated in the matching result in the real world
Solution Approach 1:
The patent creates a virtual space image that is a visual copy or representation of the real-world space, displaying other-person icons at positions corresponding to the actual locations of other users. This allows the first user to visually identify the other person in the real world by matching the icon position with the actual physical location, eliminating the need for manual searching and significantly reducing identification time while maintaining high accuracy.
Solution Approach 2:
The virtual space image serves as an intermediary between the matching result information and the real-world physical space. By displaying other-person icons in the virtual space image at positions corresponding to their real-world locations, the system provides a visual bridge that helps the first user quickly and accurately identify the physical location of the matched person without directly observing the real world or manually searching.
2Measurement precision
If detailed information about other users is provided, then user identification becomes more accurate, but the system complexity and information processing load increase
Solution Approach 1:
The patent extracts only the essential information needed for visual identification - specifically the position coordinates of other users - and displays this as simplified other-person icons in the virtual space image. By taking out only the necessary positional information rather than displaying all possible user details, the system maintains high identification accuracy while keeping the interface simple and the information processing load minimal.

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.
