  • Publication number: 20240087316
    Abstract: A location in a video may be specified and content related to the location may be accessed. A method for accessing the related content may include receiving a reference to a pixel location in a frame of a video feed of a filmed occurrence and accessing a spatio-temporal index corresponding to the filmed occurrence. The spatio-temporal index may index information relating to events or objects of the filmed occurrence and corresponding pixel locations at which the events or the objects are detected in the video feed. The method may further include querying the spatio-temporal index using the pixel location to determine particular information of an indexed event or an indexed object and receiving the particular information wherein the particular information indicates at least one of spatial and temporal alignment parameters for aligning the indexed event with a corresponding event in at least one other video feed of the filmed occurrence.

  • Publication number: 20220327830
    Abstract: Data processing systems and methods are disclosed for combining video content with one or more augmentations to produce augmented video. Objects within video content may have associated bounding boxes that may each be associated with respective RGB values. Upon user selection of a pixel, the RGBA value of the pixel may be used to determine a bounding box associated with the RGBA value. The client may transmit an indicator of the determined bounding box to an augmentation system to request augmentation data for the object associated with the bounding box. The system then uses the indicator to determine the augmentation data and transmits the augmentation data to the client device.

  • Patent number: 10755103
    Abstract: Interacting with a broadcast video content stream is performed with a machine learning facility that processes a video feed of a video broadcast through a spatiotemporal pattern recognition algorithm that applies machine learning on at least one event in the video feed in order to develop an understanding of the at least one event. Developing the understanding includes identifying context information relating to the at least one event and identifying an entry in a relationship library detailing a relationship between two visible features of the video feed. Interacting is further enabled with a touch screen user interface configured to permit at least one broadcaster to control a portion of the content of the video feed through interaction options that are based on the identified context information. Interacting is further enhanced through an interface configured to permit remote viewers to control the portion of the content.

  • Patent number: 10755102
    Abstract: Producing an event related video content data structure includes processing a video feed through a spatiotemporal pattern recognition algorithm that uses machine learning to develop an understanding of an event within the video feed. Developing the understanding includes identifying context information relating to the event and identifying an entry in a relationship library at least detailing a relationship between two visible features of the video feed. Content of the video feed that displays the event is automatically extracted by a computer and associated with the context information. A video content data structure that includes the context information is produced.
