Video Framer provides for "one touch" automatic extraction of
distinct high quality photos, from a Video file - no manual picking of frames is
required - Video Framer's image matching technology automatically looks for
unique pictures in the video stream, and creates a shortlist of photos which the
user can pre-view, then selectively print or discard - ideal for getting those
'magic moments' from any home video recording - without manual picking through
thousands of near duplicate frames.
The technology behind Video Framer
was previously used in video production to extract frames for posters, cover
art, etc. The same ease of use is now available for getting unique photos from
any home video recording#.
Any home video recording is a store-house of
potentially hundreds of high quality photographs -such that would require
several film rolls and perfect snap shoots with a conventional still camera.
Mining for these photos however has this far been a tedious process, requiring
one to sit through patiently, while selecting one frame at a time out of streams
of near duplicates - a typical one hour recording consists of approximately
100,000 still frames, mostly duplicates. Video Framer now makes this extraction
process as simple as loading a video file, and then pressing a
button.
The advanced image analysis technology embedded within Video
Framer ensures that users get the most unique collection of high quality still
photos, and with the minimal effort. The collection can then be previewed;
unwanted items can be selectively purged, specific frames included manually, and
the final list batch-printed, or stored for future use.
For smaller
"frame size" video typical of digital camcorders, web'ized video, or live video
phone recordings, Video Framer allows for automatic scaling of scanned photos up
to full frame size. Built-in automatic and adaptive Image Normalization reduces
artefacts and blurriness that are typically associated with scaled-up images.
This makes the processed photos suitable for hard copy printing.
Video
Framer lets you discover and realize the hidden treasure-trove of great
photographs, contained within video recordings from holidays, parties, special
functions, etc.
Video Framer represents a great value. One would spend
more on shooting and developing 2-3 rolls of film. With Video Framer in the
toolset, you need not lug along the extra "still" camera everywhere - just shoot
with your video camera, and you already have still photos waiting to be mined
through Video Framer.
Getting your photos the "Video Framer" way has
another inherent advantage - you do not need to time or choreograph the 'shoots'
precisely. A video automatically shoots up to 25 - 30 frames per second, so the
chances of having that perfect photo are so much more, when compared to shooting
with a still camera.
