Abstract: The invention concerns a method for processing audio-visual broadcasts to display a summary thereof. The method comprises a prior step which consists in recording an audio-visual broadcast, and a step which consists in searching within the recorded broadcasts slow-motion sequences and a step which consists in displaying the sequences found. User controls enable to browse among the found sequences. The invention also a receiver set for audio-visual broadcasts provided with a storage unit for storing the slow-motion sequences of an audio-visual broadcast. The apparatus also includes controls enabling the user to display the stored sequences.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method of processing audiovisual programs so as to display a summary thereof. The method comprises a prior step of recording an audiovisual program, and a step of searching for slow motion sequences within the program recorded and a step of displaying the sequences found. User commands make it possible to navigate among the various sequences found.

Abstract: A method and system of analyzing sequences of road images taken by a camera carried on board of a vehicle. A luminance signal of the road images from which contours of the road are extracted is generated. An analysis of color video signals based on the fact that the colorimetric components of a road region in an image do not include a green or red dominant is then combined with the luminance signal processing, in order to confirm, with good reliability, the limits of the road in the image on the basis of the contours. A mask of the road is then established. This method and system are applicable, in particular, to detecting obstacles on the road, and the information which it generates may be combined with information originating from other detectors in an obstacle detection system applicable to motor vehicle traffic.
