Around Klewel

Klewel has been cited in the following article of Science Daily (paragraph on Commercial success) about the AMI project:

ScienceDaily (Apr. 23, 2010) — Software created by European researchers is transforming business and education through the complete capture of the audio, video and textual record. It is the internet, for meetings.

The future of corporate meetings and college lectures will be interactive, multimedia, searchable and cross-linked. It will, finally, unlock the unrealised power of meetings to focus efforts, pool resources and stimulate imagination to discover creative answers to obdurate questions.

That future is just about here.

All thanks to AMI, the Augmented Multiparty Interaction consortium, a large, well-resourced consortium that has devoted two projects, dozens of partners and millions of euros to apply the latest technology to one of the oldest corporate exercises.

The first project was AMI, which developed a browser for all captured meeting information in audio, video and text, while the second project, AMIDA, enhanced the browser technologies and added distance access. Read more…

The Idiap Research Institute (acknowledgement to Alexandre Nanchen) has recently developed a technology to localize, detect and recognize text in videos based on Optical Character Recognition. A project has been conducted on Canal9 local Swiss video channel. An application helps to make a search online based on the discussed topic or speaker name. Klewel provides the associated service.
