Estimating the term…
A method of transferring video data comprises obtaining a stream of video frames from an video capture device and identifying at least one characteristic in at least one frame of the stream of video frames. Lookup data is generated which associates the at least one characteristic with its at least one identified video frame. At least one video frame in the stream of video frames having a given characteristic is determined and notification or at least one of the determined video frames is transmitted to a client. A video transfer system, video processing device and method of image identification are also described.
A method of transferring video data, comprising:
The method of any one of the preceding claims, further comprising:
The method of any one of the preceding claims, wherein the characteristic includes a given colour in one video frame of the stream of video frames.
The method of any one of the preceding claims, wherein the given characteristic is identified in a given section of each frame in the stream of video frames.
The method of any one of the preceding claims, wherein the search query further comprises an indication of a range of times of day for frames identified in the lookup data from which the at least one video frame in the subset of the stream of video frames having the given characteristic is to be determined in step (f1).
The method of any one of the preceding claims, further comprising:
The method of any one of the preceding claims, wherein the video processing device is a web server configured to receive a connection from a single client.
The method of any one of the preceding claims, wherein the video capture device is a closed-circuit video camera.
A video processing device, comprising:
The video processing device of any one of the preceding claims, wherein the processor is further configured to transmit to the client via the network interface an identification address for each frame in the stream of video frames having the given characteristic, receive via the network interface a selected identification address from the client for at least one image having the given characteristic and transmit the at least one frame corresponding to the received identification address to the client.
A method of image identification, comprising:
A video processing device, comprising:
A method of image identification, comprising:
A video transfer system comprising:
A method of transferring video data, comprising:
A video processing device, comprising:
A method of transferring video data, substantially as hereinbefore described with reference to the accompanying drawings.
A method of image identification, substantially as hereinbefore described with reference to the accompanying drawings.
A video processing device, substantially as hereinbefore described with reference to the accompanying drawings.
A video transfer system, substantially as hereinbefore described with reference to the accompanying drawings.
