Recorded and Live Video Ingestion for Automated Metadata Generation
The proliferation of video content across industries—ranging from media and entertainment to surveillance and smart city applications—has led to an increasing need for AI-powered metadata extraction. AI models can analyze recorded and live video streams to generate metadata such as object detection, scene recognition, activity tracking, and sentiment analysis. However, the scale and complexity of video data present significant challenges.
Challenges
● Massive Data Volumes: High-resolution video (4K, 8K) generates terabytes of data per hour, requiring efficient storage, retrieval, and processing mechanisms.
● Real-Time Processing Needs: Applications such as live-streaming analytics, security monitoring, and sports analysis demand real-time metadata extraction without latency.
● Concurrency Bottlenecks: AI models for object tracking, facial recognition, and motion detection must run in parallel on the same video stream, requiring optimized data pipelines.
● Data Governance & Compliance: Industries like surveillance and media must ensure privacy compliance (e.g., GDPR, CCPA) when handling sensitive video content. Additional smart contract parameters can ensure licensing enforcement on downstream data utilization as well.
● Storage & Cost Considerations: Maintaining large video archives while ensuring quick searchability and retrievability of metadata is a major cost and efficiency concern.
