The media continues to rave about DigitalSmiths’ new Seamless Discovery platmore. A GigaOm article says,
“Until now, Digitalsmiths has mainly been known for its expertise in providing rich, time-based metadata to video providers, allowing them to index, manage and distribute videos based on the data it provides. It uses technologies like facial recognition, scene classification, object identification and closed-captioned time alignment to determine exactly who is in a scene and what is happening, and to tie that information to video on a second-by-second basis.
Now it’s taking all of what it knows about the videos that people watch to help determine what it is that they like and applying that information to create personalized search and recommendations. Its Seamless Discovery technology is being pitched to pay-TV operators, consumer electronics manufacturers and content owners as a way to quickly offer up more-relevant content to their users.”
