Pictron

Video Gateway
Pictron Video Gateway unleashes the power of searchable video revolutionizing the way video is accessed and used on the Internet and Intranets. Video Gateway automatically detects video scene changes, extracts keyframes and summarizes the video content into a visual storyboard format. Video Gateway can further encode multiple video streams in Real, Microsoft, or MPEG formats during real-time video indexing with perfect synchronization.



Audio Gateway
Pictron Audio Gateway automatically analyzes the audio track of a video to segment audio signals into speech and non-speech elements. Using advanced speaker-independent speech recognition technology, Audio Gateway converts audio signals into a searchable text transcript, in real-time, without the tedious training process for individual speakers. Audio Gateway can further identify individual speakers and associate recognized text to a particular speaker.



Image Gateway
Pictron Image Gateway provides advanced visual recognition functions by extracting image features such as color, texture, and shape, and object features such as human faces, title text, and user-defined objects from video streams in real-time. The Face Recognition and Video OCR (on-screen title text) modules are the first in a set, available from Pictron and its partners. Using Pictron's proprietary visual recognition technology, Image Gateway converts unstructured videos into searchable knowledge, allowing users to search images or videos based on visual similarities, specific persons, or objects.
