Abstract: One embodiment of the present invention provides a cloud-based video monitoring system comprising a camera and a network video recorder (NVR). During operation, the camera stores in a buffer last predetermined temporal segment of a video. The camera also stores a first video file in a local storage corresponding to an event detected by the camera. This first video file is non-overlapping with a second video file corresponding to the event and this second video file is stored in the NVR. The camera generates a third video file by pre-pending last predetermined temporal segment of a video prior to the event to the first video file and sends the third video file to the NVR.

Abstract: A system and method for simple video editing and playback is disclosed. A platform implementing the described system and method allows users to edit videos including by clipping, combining and annotating, without requiring local video storage. Rather, edited videos are represented by metadata enabling playback of the edited videos directly from embedded video players. Playback directly accesses the original content owners' source files, increasing their video views and watch time, and minimizing risk of inadvertent copyright infringement. A control loop switches between identically located visible and hidden pre-loaded embedded video players in order to present seamless playback. A transparent annotation layer in a substantially identical location as the embedded video players allows for annotations to be mapped onto video playback.

Abstract: Described herein is a method and system for automated, context sensitive and non-intrusive insertion of consumer-adaptive content in video. It assesses ‘context’ in the video that a consumer is viewing through multiple modalities and metadata about the video. The method and system described herein analyzes relevance for a consumer based on multiple factors such as the profile information of the end-user, history of the content, social media and consumer interests and professional or educational background, through patterns from multiple sources. The system also implements local-context through search techniques for localizing sufficiently large, homogenous regions in the image that do not obfuscate protagonists or objects in focus but are viable candidate regions for insertion for the intended content. This makes relevant, curated content available to a user in the most effortless manner without hampering the viewing experience of the main video.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and software for submitting video evidence. A request is received from a user of a security device to submit an identified video clip as video evidence to an agency, and the identified video clip and corresponding metadata is retrieved from a database of video clips. Additional information about content of the video clip is interactively collected from the owner and a digital signature is received from the owner. A video evidence file is generated to include the content of the identified video clip, information regarding capture of the video clip based upon the metadata, the additional information, and the digital signature. The video evidence file is then communicated to the agency.

Abstract: Systems and methods for tagging portions a spherical video segment are provided. The spherical video segment may include visual content. User input indicating a moment in time in the spherical video segment and a viewing angle corresponding to the moment in time may be received. Tag information for the spherical video segment may be generated. The tag information may identify the moment in time and the viewing angle such that a subsequent presentation of the spherical video segment, proximate to the moment in time, includes a notification that the viewing angle is outside a display field of view based on the viewing angle being located outside the display field of view.

Abstract: A layered-keyframe-based, presentation recording service provides for presentation recording sessions, the recording of presentations, and the creation of presentation videos. A user records with the user's device the document pages and page annotations, as well audio and video streams, that are presented using the device during the course of a presentation recording session. The pages, annotations and video streams are efficiently and separately recorded as keyframes. These keyframes are used as document, annotation and video layers to create layered keyframes. A presentation video is created from the layered keyframes and the recorded audio stream. Users can then playback presentation videos at a time, place and manner that is available to, accessible by and/or convenient to them.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present application provide a method and apparatus for displaying objects. In the method, video frames that contain objects of predefined types are detected in pieces of video data to be displayed in a first display region. If such video frames are detected, the objects of the predefined types are extracted from the detected video frames. The extracted objects are then displayed in sub-regions of a second display region that is different from the first display region, with each object being displayed in one of the sub-regions. In this way, the objects that a user is interested in can be extracted from a video, and displayed in a way to be viewed with ease.

Abstract: Implementations relate to visualizations including images based on image content. In some implementations, a computer-implemented method includes obtaining a set of images, determining one or more pixel characteristics of the set of images, and determining one or more faces depicted in the plurality of images based on one or more pixel characteristics. The method selects a group of images of the set of images, where each image in the group of images depicts a different group of faces than depicted in the other images in the set of images. The method generates a visualization including the group of images, and provides the visualization to a user device in response to a user request to cause the group of images to be displayed by the user device.
