Real-time annotation of video objects on tablet computers
João S. Silva, Diogo Cabral, Carla Fernandes, Nuno M. R. Correia · 2012
When using a tablet computer, sketching is a natural approach for users to annotate video scenes. However, when these annotations are done in real-time and overlaid in the video, their context can be lost due to changes in the scene being annotated. We propose an approach towards maintaining the annotations' context, by using object tracking to create anchors onto which further annotations can be attached. To this end, the annotator is capable of using different tracking methods, including a Kinect sensor and/or the TLD object tracking algorithm.
