Multi-View Video Presentation Updates Using Metadata-Matched Clips
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing multi-view, online video presentations lack the ability to dynamically alter content after creation, fail to utilize vantage point information, and suffer from gaps in coverage due to insufficient livestream videos.
Innovation Solution
A system and method that combines livestream video clips with natively-recorded clips from spectators' devices, using metadata to associate and merge them with existing presentations, filling gaps and enhancing vantage point views.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If traditional video production equipment is used to create video-on-demand presentations, then the presentation can be created initially, but it cannot be dynamically altered or enhanced after creation
Solution Approach 1:
The system transitions from static video presentations to dynamic, continuously updatable presentations by implementing real-time ingestion pipelines that accept new livestream videos and automatically integrate them into existing presentations without requiring system reconfiguration
Solution Approach 2:
The video production server is designed to handle multiple functions: creating initial presentations, continuously ingesting new videos, automatically editing content, and distributing updates across multiple platforms simultaneously, replacing the need for separate specialized equipment
2Quantity of substance
If only livestream videos are used to create presentations, then the presentation can be created quickly, but gaps in coverage occur due to insufficient livestream videos
Solution Approach 1:
The system automatically monitors coverage gaps in the presentation timeline and independently sources appropriate livestream videos to fill those gaps without requiring manual intervention, using automated metadata matching and video selection algorithms
Solution Approach 2:
The system pre-ingests and buffers livestream videos before they are needed in the final presentation, organizing them by event, time stamp, and metadata so that when gaps are detected, suitable footage is already available for immediate integration
3Adaptability or versatility
If vantage point information is not utilized, then the presentation system remains simple, but the viewing experience lacks enhancement from diverse perspectives
Solution Approach 1:
The system extracts and utilizes specific local attributes from videos such as GPS coordinates, device orientation, and camera angle to determine vantage points, allowing different portions of the presentation to showcase optimally positioned footage from various perspectives

AI summary
A system, method and apparatus are described for improving video production technology. A video production server receives livestream videos from spectators at live events. The video production server creates video-on-demand presentations based on the livestream video clips. The video production server may also receive natively-created video clips of live events after live events have ended. The natively-created video clips each comprise location, date and time information as metadata. When natively-created video clips are received by the video production server, each clip is associated with a particular, past live event by comparing the location, date and time information of each clip to a database of live events identified by each event's location, date and time. The video production server may then update a particular video-on-demand presentation with an associated natively-created video clip, resulting in an updated video-on-demand presentation using both livestream video clips and natively-created video clips.
