Abstract

The disclosure relates to methods, systems, and apparatuses, including computer programs on a computer storage medium, for generating a dynamic user interface and playing a video within the dynamic user interface. A dynamic computer user guidance system includes a user interface generation module that causes a display of a dynamic user interface. The dynamic user interface provides a plurality of instructions via one or more dynamic elements. The user interface generation module generates a user interface status indicator. The system includes a video control module that an integrated video to play in the dynamic user interface in response to receipt of the user interface status indicator. The video control module generates a video status indicator. A synchronization module communicably coupled to the user interface generation module and the video control module synchronize a state change in one or more dynamic elements in response to receipt of the video status indicator.

Claims

1. A dynamic computer user guidance system comprising:

a user interface generation module configured to cause a display of a dynamic user interface on a graphical user interface of an electronic computing device, the dynamic user interface providing a plurality of instructions via one or more dynamic elements, the user interface generation module configured to generate a user interface status indicator;

a video control module communicably coupled to the user interface generation module, the video control module configured to cause playing of at least one integrated video in the dynamic user interface in response to receipt of the user interface status indicator, the video control module configured to generate a video status indicator; and

a synchronization module communicably coupled to the user interface generation module and the video control module, the synchronization module configured to synchronize a state change in at least one of the one or more dynamic elements in response to receipt of the video status indicator from the video control module.

2. The system of claim 1, wherein the user interface status indicator is based on receipt of a user input received through the user interface.

3. The system of claim 2, wherein the video control module is configured to select the at least one integrated video from among a plurality of videos based on the user input.

4. The system of claim 1, wherein the at least one dynamic element is configured to change colors.

5. The system of claim 1, wherein the at least one dynamic element includes a pointer.

6. The system of claim 1, wherein the video control module is configured to transmit the video status indicator in response to receipt of an input signal from a back-end system.

7. The system of claim 6, wherein the back-end system generates the input signal in response to a delivery confirmation.

8. The system of claim 1, wherein the video control module is configured to generate the video status indicator in response to receipt of an input signal from a peripheral device of the electronic computing device.

9. The system of claim 8, wherein the peripheral device includes a camera.

10. The system of claim 8, wherein the video control device is configured to analyze a photo captured by the camera to determine the integrated video to play.

11. The system of claim 8, wherein the peripheral device includes a barcode scanner.

12. The system of claim 8, wherein the peripheral device includes a microphone.

13. The system of claim 8, wherein the peripheral device includes a heart rate monitor.

14. The system of claim 1, wherein the video control module is configured to transmit the video status indicator in response to receipt of an input signal from a historic database having a data set of prior user error data stored thereon.

15. A computer-implemented method executed by one or more processors of an electronic computing device, the method comprising:

causing, by the one or more processors, a display of a dynamic instructional user interface on a graphical user interface of the electronic device;

generating, by the one or more processors, a user interface status indicator based on display content of the dynamic instructional user interface;

causing, by the one or more processors, a video to play within the dynamic instructional user interface in response to the status indicator;

generating, by the one or more processors, a plurality of video signals based on video content in the video; and

adjusting, by the one or more processors, a dynamic element of the dynamic instructional user interface in response to at least one video signal of the plurality of video signals.

16. The method of claim 15, wherein causing the display includes causing the display in response to receipt of a delivery notification from a back-end system.

17. The method of claim 15, further comprising:

receiving an input signal from a peripheral device communicably coupled to the electronic device; and

changing the display content of the dynamic instructional user interface in response to receipt of the input signal.

18. The method of claim 15, further comprising:

capturing an image from a camera device of the electronic computing device;

analyzing the image; and

changing the display content of the dynamic instructional user interface based on the analysis.

19. The method of claim 15, wherein adjusting the dynamic element comprises highlighting text.

20. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium coupled to one or more processors and having instructions stored thereon which, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to perform operations comprising:

causing a display of a dynamic instructional user interface on a graphical user interface of the electronic device;

generating a user interface status indicator based on display content of the dynamic instructional user interface;

causing a video to play within the dynamic instructional user interface in response to the status indicator;

generating a plurality of video signals based on video content in the video; and

adjusting a dynamic element of the dynamic instructional user interface in response to at least one video signal of the plurality of video signals.
