Pictron Media Gateway Product Suite
Video is a powerful tool for
communicating. As streaming media has become mainstream, so too has the need to
effectively search and manage this potent medium. To unleash the power of your media
assets, Pictron has developed a comprehensive suite of products and services lending
access to compelling and interactive video on the Web.
The Pictron Media Gateway Suite of
products consists of Video Gateway, Audio Gateway, Image Gateway, Media Gateway Search Server, and Media
Gateway Director. Video scene changes are automatically detected and
representative key frames are extracted, summarizing the video content into a storyboard
format that communicates the storyline in a highly effective way. Image features such as
color, shape, and texture and object features such as human faces, video title text, and
user-defined objects are extracted from video frames to index the visual content. A
useful text transcript of the video is extracted from closed caption text or through
speaker-independent speech recognition to provide synchronized full text indexing.
With the useful storyboard format, a nonlinear access point for viewing video segments
from any key frame is provided. Users can now quickly skim through content and search for
video segments by visual cues, text content, and database information effortlessly finding
key clips of interest. If you’ve got the video, we can lend you vivid results.
