An approach for an intelligent crop and scale application to adapt video for mobile TV
Joerg Deigmoeller, Takebumi Itagaki, Gerhard Stoll · 2008
Within the framework of the EU (European Union) funded project porTiVity (portable interactivity), IRT is developing an application in cooperation with several partners, that automatically adapts SDTV (Standard Definition Television) sport productions for mobile TV displays by intelligent cropping and scaling. It detects important content based features in the video of sport productions and crops a chosen area, based on the semantic attributes of the video content and artistic aspects of video productions. The final tool is foreseen to be integrated in the post production chain and to provide a differentiation between the original SD version and a processed one adapted to the requirements for mobile TV.
