Video Tracking System with Fingerprinting for Unauthorized Distribution
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Conventional techniques for tracking video distributions on the Internet lack accuracy and automation, making it difficult for content owners and marketers to monitor and identify unauthorized distributions or determine video popularity.
Innovation Solution
A method and system that uses video fingerprinting to crawl websites, discover video links, process information, determine if links are new, download video objects, generate fingerprints, and match them against tracked titles, updating databases and presenting tracking data dynamically.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Measurement precision
If conventional techniques are used for tracking video distributions, then the process can be performed, but the accuracy is insufficient and automation is lacking
Solution Approach 1:
The system automatically performs video fingerprinting, website crawling, and database updates without requiring manual intervention. The video fingerprinting module autonomously generates fingerprints from video data, and the database management system automatically updates records when new videos are detected or existing ones are removed, eliminating the need for manual tracking processes.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent replaces manual video tracking mechanisms with automated computer-based systems. Instead of manual monitoring and identification, the system uses automated algorithms for video fingerprinting, web crawling, and data processing to achieve accurate and consistent tracking of video distributions across the internet.
2Productivity
If manual video tracking is performed, then some monitoring is possible, but productivity is low and time-consuming
Solution Approach 1:
The system operates continuously to monitor video distributions across the internet. The web crawling and video fingerprinting processes run ongoing to detect new videos and track their distributions in real-time, ensuring continuous monitoring without interruption and significantly improving productivity compared to manual tracking.
Solution Approach 2:
The automated system performs all tracking operations independently without requiring human time investment. The video fingerprinting module, web crawler, and database management system work autonomously to identify, track, and report video distributions, eliminating the time-consuming nature of manual tracking while maintaining high productivity.
Data Source
AI summary
Method and system for discovering and identifying a video object. The method includes crawling at least one predetermined website, discovering at least one video link at the predetermined website, processing information associated with a first database for storing one or more video links, and determining whether the discovered video link was already discovered before based on at least information associated with the first database. Additionally, the method includes, if the discovered video link is determined not to have been discovered before, updating the first database based on at least information associated with the discovered video link, downloading at least one video object based on at least information associated with the discovered video link, and processing information associated with the downloaded video object.
