Title: Incorporating video meta-data in 3D models
Inventor: BROWN LISA MARIE
IPC: G06T13/20
Filed: 2012-05-02
Abstract: A moving object detected and tracked within a field of view environment of a 2D data feed of a calibrated video camera is represented by a 3D model through localizing a centroid of the object and determining an intersection with a ground-plane within the field of view environment. An appropriate 3D mesh-based volumetric model for the object is initialized by using a back-projection of a corresponding 2D image as a function of the centroid and the determined ground-plane intersection. Nonlinear dynamics of a tracked motion path of the object are represented as a collection of different local linear models. A texture of the object is projected onto the 3D model, and 2D tracks of the object are upgraded to 3D motion to drive the 3D model by learning a weighted combination of the different local linear models that minimizes an image re-projection error of model movement.

Title: User generated content analysis method
Inventor: Kevin Price
IPC: H04N21/84
Filed: 2015-06-01
Abstract: A method of analysing user generated content involves monitoring plackback of video content on a first user device, monitoring user generated content having predetermined content, determining if the user generated content was generated by a first user associated with the first user device, and identifying a chronological time at which the user generated content was made and identifying the corresponding playback time of the video content. The video content may be video-on-demand (VOD) viewed offline. The user generated content and predetermined content may be a social media comment or post which may be preceded by a predetermined character or tag, such as a #. The comments and associated playback time may be stored and forwarded to other user devices. The aim of the invention is to allow a content provider to associate user generated content with a particular playback time of video content, even when the video content is being viewed offline or on-demand. This is in contrast to alleged prior art in which user generated content may only be associated with a particular moment of video content if it is known when a user will be viewing the video content for example during a live television broadcast.
