Video Framing Reduction Using Smoothed Viewing Paths
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Managing a large number of video framings within a short duration is difficult and time-consuming due to their dense temporal proximity, making it challenging to present and manipulate video content effectively.
Innovation Solution
A system and method that generates a viewing path for a video based on framing information, reducing the number of required framings by generating a smoothed path and identifying key framing points to simplify video presentation.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Measurement precision
If multiple framings are provided at short temporal intervals, then video presentation quality is improved, but management complexity and time consumption increase
Solution Approach 1:
The patent extracts only the essential framing information from the complete set of framings. By identifying and removing redundant framings that do not contribute significantly to video quality, the system retains only the critical framings needed for accurate video representation, thereby reducing management complexity while preserving presentation quality
Solution Approach 2:
The patent segments the continuous stream of framings into discrete, manageable units by grouping framings into sets based on their temporal and spatial relationships. This segmentation allows the system to process and manage framings in organized batches rather than as a continuous dense stream, reducing overall management complexity
2Measurement precision
If multiple framings are provided at short temporal intervals, then video presentation quality is improved, but time consumption for manipulation increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent extracts and eliminates redundant framings from the complete set, keeping only the essential framings that maintain video quality. This reduction directly decreases the time required for framing manipulation operations by reducing the total number of framings that need to be processed, moved, and managed
Solution Approach 2:
The patent performs preliminary analysis and reduction of framings before the actual video manipulation tasks. By pre-identifying and removing redundant framings in advance, the system prepares a streamlined set of essential framings that will require less time for subsequent manipulation operations
3Measurement precision
If complete framing information is retained, then video accuracy is improved, but data quantity and processing load increase
Solution Approach 1:
The patent extracts only the essential framing data from the complete framing information set. By identifying and removing redundant or less critical framing data while retaining key framing information, the system reduces the total data quantity and processing load while maintaining sufficient video accuracy for effective presentation
Data Source
AI summary
Framings of a video determines which spatial extents of the video are presented during playback of the video. A viewing path for the video is generated based on the framings of the video, and the number of framings for the video is reduced based on the viewing path for the video. The reduced number of framings for the video is provided for use in generating a presentation of the video.
