Automated Camera Operator
The Automated Camera Operator module in the play Video Intelligence Platform is designed to streamline the video production process by following subjects throughout multiple cameras. This AI-driven feature ensures that editors can save time by automating the task of tracking subjects and maintaining focus on the action, allowing for a more efficient and seamless editing experience.
Key Features
Subject Tracking Across Multiple Cameras
The Automated Camera Operator can handle video inputs from up to six different camera perspectives. By uploading these perspectives, the AI will track the subject across all cameras, ensuring that the output video always follows the action, providing a coherent and engaging narrative.
Highlight Video Production
With the Automated Camera Operator, producing highlight videos focusing on specific subjects becomes effortless. The AI identifies key moments and actions involving the subject and compiles these into a dynamic highlight reel. This process includes:
- Detection of significant actions and events
- Compilation of engaging moments
- Automatic editing and sequencing
Timeline Export
The platform allows you to export the generated timelines, providing a structured sequence of the tracked subject’s actions. This timeline can be used for further editing or analysis in various video editing software. The timeline export includes:
- Detailed metadata with timecodes
- Cut marks and scene descriptions
- Transcribed speech and recognized actions
Clip Export
In addition to full highlight videos and timelines, the Automated Camera Operator also supports exporting individual clips focused on the subjects. These clips can be used for:
- Detailed analysis of specific actions
- Social media snippets
- Customized video segments
