System and method for extracting objects from videos in real-time to create virtual situations

A system for extracting objects from videos in real-time to create virtual situations, comprising:

• a computing device comprising a processor for executing instructions from a video creating and editing module stored in memory within the computing device, whereby the a video creating and editing module configured to enable a user to record one or more videos;
• the video creating and editing module configured to select one or more frames automatically from the one or more user recorded videos, whereby the video creating and editing module configured to transfer the one or more automatically selected frames from the computing device to a server over a network;
• the server comprising a video processing module configured to receive the one or more automatically selected frames, whereby the video processing module configured to detect and extract one or more objects from the one or more automatically selected frames and transfer the one or more extracted objects to the computing device over the network;
• and
• the video creating and editing module configured to receive one or more extracted objects and display the one or more extracted objects to the user on the computing device, whereby the video creating and editing module configured to place the one or more extracted objects on a new frame automatically, the video creating and editing module configured to allow the user to reposition the one or more extracted objects on the new frame, the video creating and editing module configured to enable the user to customize background and foreground elements in the new frame to create virtual situations.

A computer program product comprising a non-transitory computer-readable medium having a computer-readable program code embodied therein to be executed by one or more processors, said program code including instructions to:

• enable a user to record one or more videos by a video creating and editing module on a computing device;
• select one or more frames automatically from the one or more user recorded videos by the video creating and editing module;
• transfer the one or more automatically selected frames from the computing device to a server by the video creating and editing module over a network;
• receive the one or more automatically selected frames by a video processing module enabled in the server;
• detect and extract one or more objects from the one or more automatically selected frames by the video processing module;
• transfer the one or more extracted objects to the computing device by the video processing module over the network;
• receive the one or more extracted objects by the video creating and editing module and displaying the one or more extracted objects to the user on the computing device;
• place the one or more extracted objects on a new frame automatically by the video creating and editing module;
• allow the user to reposition the one or more extracted objects on the new frame by the video creating and editing module;
• and
• enable the user to customize background and foreground elements in the new frame to create virtual situations by the video creating and editing module.
