The temperature sensor is configured to detect an operating temperature of the recording device. The processing component is configured to process the video data, and to enable the camera component to dynamically adjust at least one of a data rate of the video data and a frame rate of the video data according to the operating temperature during the camera component captures the video.

Abstract: Systems and methods for switching between multiple video sources output to output a video stream via a single physical output are disclosed. An example method can include decoding a first encoded video file and populating a memory with corresponding first decoded video data. The process can include decoding a second encoded video file and populating the memory with corresponding second decoded video data at a particular location of the memory. The process can include causing a video player to read from the memory so as to output a video stream, via the single physical output, corresponding to the first decoded video data, and then causing the video player to switch to read from the particular location of the memory such that the video stream switches to corresponding to the second decoded video data.

Abstract: A video indexing method includes: analyzing trajectory information of a plurality of objects in video data and storing a plurality of pieces of object trajectory data obtained correspondingly in a storage device; determining whether the storage device satisfies a data removal condition; when the data removal condition is satisfied, performing an object trajectory analysis on the plurality of pieces of object trajectory data to select at least one target object from the objects; and extracting the object trajectory data of the at least one target object from the storage device and generating at least one video indexing image accordingly.

Abstract: Recorded in a recording medium is a video stream, map information, and bitrate information of the video stream. The map information includes size information indicating data size of a section where a picture is recorded in the video stream, based on a predetermined stipulated data size. The stipulated data size differs in accordance with the bitrate information.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a method for intuitively reproducing video contents through data structuring and the apparatus thereof, more specifically, which searches section by section the video contents edited and provided based on section with free search, hash tag, and/or bookmark, produces a new video contents from the searched sections of the video contents, and therefore promotes consumption of the video contents by providing reproduced video contents. The video contents can be edited and played by using a user interface intuitively figuring out the structure of video contents.

Abstract: A technique processes an initial recording of a meeting. The technique involves receiving the initial recording of the meeting, and performing a content classification operation that electronically classifies the initial recording of the meeting into a set of relevant conference portions and a set of irrelevant conference portions. The technique further involves, based on the initial recording of the meeting, providing a shortened recording of the meeting. The shortened recording includes the set of relevant conference portions and omits the set of irrelevant conference portions.

Abstract: A visual line direction sensing device communicably connected with a head-up display device, which projects an image on a screen disposed ahead of a target, includes an image capture unit capturing a target image from a front side of the target, an acquisition unit acquiring adjusted position information indicative of an image projection position by an adjustment unit of the head-up display device, an estimation unit estimating positions of pupils of the target based on the adjusted position information acquired by the acquisition unit, a setup unit setting an inspection range of the target image captured by the image capture unit with reference to the positions of the pupils estimated by the estimation unit, and a calculator calculating a visual line direction of the target based on a status of the pupils included in the inspection range of the target image set by the setup unit.

Abstract: Systems and processes are disclosed for providing a video output of a subset of an encoded video file. In one example, a process includes accessing an encoded video file that includes an initial frame and scanning the encoded video file for a start frame of a video clip. This process can also include decoding the video clip of the encoded video file to generate decoded video data corresponding to the video clip and populating memory with the decoded video data. Further, the process can include setting a playout pointer that indicates a location in the memory populated with the decoded video data and corresponding to the start frame of the video clip. In addition, the process can include causing a video player to read, beginning at the playout pointer, from the decoded video data in the memory so as to output, via an output port of the video playout card, a video stream of the video clip.

Abstract: Various embodiments of the invention provide systems and methods for low bandwidth consumption online content editing, where user-created content comprising high definition/quality content is created or modified at an online content editing server according to instructions from an online content editor client, and where a proxy version of the resulting user-created content is provided to online content editor client to facilitate review or further editing of the user-created content from the online content editor client. In some embodiments, the online content editing server utilizes proxy content during creation and modification operations on the user-created content, and replaces such proxy content with corresponding higher definition/quality content, possibly when the user-created content is published for consumption, or when the user has paid for the higher quality content.
