Multi-Object Video Capture With Automatic Sub-Video Segmentation
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing video shooting methods require users to capture multiple objects separately and then edit the videos to combine them, which is cumbersome and inefficient.
Innovation Solution
A method and apparatus that allows users to select multiple objects in a video preview image and shoot a target video with N sub-videos corresponding to these objects, each with a defined shooting range within the preview image, eliminating the need for post-editing.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If users capture multiple objects separately and then edit videos to combine them, then the video content can be customized, but the operation process becomes cumbersome and time-consuming
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies preliminary action by allowing users to pre-select multiple target objects in the preview image before shooting. The system automatically divides the shooting area and generates multiple sub-videos corresponding to each selected object during the shooting process itself, eliminating the need for post-shooting editing operations. This resolves the contradiction by performing the segmentation and selection work before the actual shooting, making the operation simpler and faster.
2Adaptability or versatility
If users manually edit videos to obtain videos of multiple specific objects, then the video content meets user needs, but the operation process is cumbersome
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies self-service by enabling the system to automatically perform the video segmentation and sub-video generation based on user-selected objects. The electronic device autonomously divides the shooting area according to the selected objects and creates multiple sub-videos with appropriate shooting ranges without requiring manual editing operations. This maintains video content adaptability while significantly improving ease of operation.
3Productivity
If a single video captures all objects, then the shooting process is simple, but post-editing is required to obtain individual object videos
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies segmentation by automatically dividing the single shooting scene into multiple independent sub-videos, each corresponding to a selected target object. The system segments the shooting area based on the positions of selected objects and generates separate video streams for each object during the shooting process. This resolves the contradiction by maintaining simple shooting operations while automatically producing segmented results that eliminate the need for post-editing.
