Automatic FSM-Based Video Directors for Lecture Recording
نویسندگان
چکیده
The manual recording of lectures is a common technique today. To enable an automatic recording of lectures we propose an approach based on a sophisticated finite state machine implementing video production rules. The main goal is to improve the quality of the recording and a higher level of engagement of the spectators. In order to test our approach we define the evaluation criteria and compare our approach to a finite state machine using fixed weights. This paper introduces the development of the criteria coming from typical questions of the director of a human camera team. In a second step we test the criteria with two finite state machines. A brief overview of the project status and its first results concludes the paper.

An Automatic Lecture Recording System Using Pan-Tilt-Zoom Camera to Track Lecturer and Handwritten Data
For automatic recording of the traditional lecture with a wide blackboard by using a Pan-Tilt-Zoom (PTZ) camera, a system, called ACRS (After Class Reviewing System), was proposed. From the point of view of students reviewing the lecture, the handwritten data is more important than the video of the lecturer. So, the handwritten data and the lecturer were considered together to record a lecture ...

1 Abstract In recent years, the use of streamed digital video as a teaching and learning resource has become an increasingly attractive option for many educators as an innovation which expands the range of learning resources available to students by moving away from static text-and-graphic resources towards a video-rich learning environment. Streamed video is already widely used in some univers...

1 corresponding author: Chun-Hong Huang Abstract— In e-learning, video is widely used in many course domains. We address the problem of the lecture recording and the organization of visual information through user’s interaction at different steps. Our work focuses on the following three important areas: (1) synchronization method of the material contents and (2) interactions between material an...
متن کاملPerspectives for Lecture Videos
This article presents an architecture for automated multi-perspective lecture recordings. The implementation switches between several video streams showing different perspectives in order to make the recording more vivid and to reduce the tunnel vision effect of single-perspective recordings. Automatic switching can be based on time intervals or, at a later stage of development, via simple reco...

Many organizations and universities provide distance learning by recording classroom lectures and making them available to students over the Internet. A repository generally contains hundreds of such lecture videos. Each lecture video is typically a more than hour’s duration and is often huge. It is sometimes clumsy for students to search through an entire video, or across many videos, in order...
