Obvious Technology and Virage Provide Powerful Video Review, Indexing and Collaboration System for Broadband and Video Management
Las Vegas, NV--April 20, 1999--Obvious Technology today at the National Association of Broadcasters Show demonstrated the advantages of using Obvious Technology's annotation and collaborative work tool, the OBVIOUS™ Media Manager, with Virage's VideoLogger. Virage and Obvious Technology will be working together to market this complete solution to the broadcast and corporate multimedia industries.
In the Virage booth (NAB S-1351), Obvious Technology will be demonstrating how the OBVIOUS Media Manager greatly speeds up the Virage search process and also provides a powerful and fully-featured interface for collaboration and annotation of projects. By using the OBVIOUS Media Manager interface, Virage's customers in broadcast and corporate multimedia industries will now be able to embed links to other media types (text, sound, HTML, still images, ODBC database tables, closed caption and even DNS/IP addresses) in the annotations to their indexed video selections.
"The OBVIOUS Media Manager's ability to integrate a wide variety of multimedia data with Virage's searchable video index provides organizations with a powerful new solution for sharing and using video more effectively," said Paul Lego, Chief Executive Officer of Virage. "Now, through a single interface, users will have access to all data related to a particular project at their fingertips--improving their ability to complete the project faster and more effectively." According to Etienne Mirlesse, CEO of Obvious Technology, "Virage's open architecture and published SDK made this integration easy. We feel the OBVIOUS Media Manager is the ideal complement to Virage's proven video indexing and management capabilities. Producers will now be able to add rich media annotations to video projects under production, as well as work in collaboration with team members scattered throughout the world." Obvious Technology's Media Manager is based upon a universal multimedia envelope called an Object-Based Video Interface (OBVI™) format that can be thousands of times smaller than current media files. Because of the small size, OBVI searches are very fast compared to searching standard video file formats. The OBVI interactive multimedia file can also be used to link video content to any type of existing media on a frame-accurate basis (text, sound, HTML, still images, ODBC database tables, closed caption and even DNS/IP addresses).
