System and Method for Imagery Warehousing and Collaborative Search Processing
TLDR
In this article, a data warehouse for heterogeneous imagery data of all varieties, from any configured sources, is maintained to a Data Warehouse for expedient access and convenient search processing.Abstract:
Heterogeneous imagery data of all varieties, from any configured sources, is maintained to a data warehouse for expedient access and convenient search processing. Imagery content maintained is processed for deriving associated search schema including multiple types of metadata, cross reference information for conclusively associating metadata, and diagnostics information for associating metadata with potential correlation. Collection processing governs contents of the warehouse, and is fully configurable to adapt to small customized installations as well as meeting scale requirements of a world population. Client processing provides a variety of useful searches, many options for processing imagery objects, and enables clients to contribute to objects collected for enhancing a collaborative social experience for the benefit of all users.read more

Image Capture and Identification System and Process
Wayne C. Boncyk,Ronald H. Cohen +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, a digital image of the object is captured and the object recognition from plurality of objects in a database is performed using an information address corresponding to the object, which is then used to access information and initiate communication pertinent to object.
Patent
Object Information Derived From Object Images
Wayne C. Boncyk,Ronald H. Cohen +1 more
TL;DR: Search terms are derived automatically from images captured by a camera equipped cell phone, PDA, or other image capturing device, submitted to a search engine to obtain information of interest, and at least a portion of the resulting information is transmitted back locally to the device that captured the image.
Patent
Voice-based video tagging
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors identify events of interest within the video and corresponding metadata, and best scenes are identified based on the identified events and metadata patterns, and a video summary can be generated including one or more of the identified best scenes.
Patent
Variable playback speed template for video editing application
TL;DR: A playback speed effect is applied to a video using a playback speed template as discussed by the authors, which specifies playback speed ratios (i.e., ratios between playback duration and capture duration) at the highlight moment, at a template start time, and at template end time.
