Abstract
Systems and methods are provided for automatically performing an action based on video content. One example method includes receiving, at a first computing device, a video and determining, with a content determination engine, content of the video. An action to perform at the first computing device and/or at a second computing device is generated, based on the content of the video. If the action is to be performed at the second computing device, the action is transmitted to the second computing device. The action is performed at the respective first and/or second computing device.
Claims21
A method for automatically performing an action based on video content, the method comprising:
- receiving, at a first computing device, a video;
- determining, with a content determination engine, content of the video;
- generating, based on the content of the video, an action to perform at the first computing device and/or at a second computing device;
- if the action is to be performed at the second computing device, transmitting the action to perform to the second computing device;
- and
- performing the action at the respective first and/or second computing device.
A system for automatically performing an action based on video content, the system comprising:
- a communication port;
- and
- control circuitry configured to:
- receive, at a first computing device, a video;
- determine, with a content determination engine, content of the video;
- generate, based on the content of the video, an action to perform at the first computing device and/or at a second computing device;
- if the action is to be performed at the second computing device, transmit the action to perform to the second computing device;
- and
- perform the action at the respective first and/or second computing device.
