Abstract
A rich media event production method and system including the capturing, indexing, and synchronizing of RGB-based graphic content. The method includes capturing audio and video during an event production; capturing graphical content during the event production from an RGB source device; indexing and synchronizing the captured audio, video, and graphical content during the event production; and communicating the audio, video, and graphical content over a network for presentation at a computer coupled to the network during or after the event production as selected by a user of the computer.
Claims20
A method for capturing and presenting a presentation, the method comprising:
- capturing image content associated with a presentation via a video capture device;
- capturing RGB content associated with the presentation via an RGB content capture device, wherein image content is presented at a lower capture rate than the RGB content;
- synchronizing the captured image content and the captured RGB content by associating the image content with a plurality of indicators and marking the RGB content with the plurality of indicators;
- and
- making the synchronized images and RGB content accessible to a viewer during or after the presentation including presenting a first image of the image content when presented RGB content is marked with a first indicator, wherein the first image is associated with the first indicator.
An apparatus for capturing a presentation, the apparatus comprising:
- an audio receiving component capable of receiving audio associated with a presentation, wherein the audio is captured through an audio capture device;
- an RGB content receiving component capable of receiving RGB content associated with the presentation, wherein the RGB content is captured through an RGB content capture device;
- a synchronization component capable of synchronizing the received audio and the received RGB content by associating the received RGB content with a plurality of indicators and marking the received audio with the plurality of indicators;
- and
- a presenting component capable of making the synchronized audio and RGB content accessible to a viewer during or after the presentation including presenting a first image of the received RGB content when synchronized audio is marked with a first indicator, wherein the first image associated with the first indicator.
A computer-readable medium having computer-readable instructions stored thereon that, upon execution by a processor, cause the processor to capture a presentation, the instructions comprising:
- capturing image content associated with a presentation via a video capture device;
- capturing RGB content associated with the presentation via an RGB content capture device;
- associating a segment of the RGB content with at least one image of the image content;
- and
- providing the RGB content and the image content to a presentation server, wherein the at least one image is provided to the presentation server when the segment of the RGB content is provided.
