Abstract

A system and method for real time marking of potential moments of interest in media produced by a media source. The system includes: a logging module configured to register moments and their attributes in real time; a marking trigger configured to indicate potential moments of interest; and a processing module configured to convert the registered moments and their attributes into desired features or elements and to match and align a series of moments with their corresponding media files or clips. The logging module includes either (a) an audio recorder to record audio or (b) a logging module controller to control the start and stop of the media source as a logging session commences or ends.

Claims (22)

1. A system for real time marking of potential moments of interest in media produced by a media source, the system comprising:

a logging module configured to register moments and their attributes in real time;

a marking trigger configured to indicate potential moments of interest; and

a processing module configured to convert the registered moments and their attributes into desired features or elements and to match and align a series of moments with their corresponding media files or clips,

wherein the logging module either (a) comprises an audio recorder to record audio or (b) comprises a logging module controller to control the start and stop of the media source when a logging session commences or ends; and

wherein the processing module is configured to align a series of registered moments of the media by applying pattern recognition on a recorded audio track and the media's soundtrack.

2. The system of claim 1 , comprising a direct or remote electronic or mechanical actuator configured to start and stop the media source and to set the media's start time when the logging session commences or ends.

3. The system of claim 1 , wherein the marking trigger is a user button.

4. The system of claim 1 , wherein the marking trigger is a signal.

5. The system of claim 1 , comprising a communication unit configured to communicate between multiple logging modules and external systems or modules.

6. A system for real time marking of potential moments of interest in media produced by a media source, the system comprising:

a logging module configured to register moments and their attributes in real time;

a marking trigger configured to indicate potential moments of interest; and

a processing module configured to convert the registered moments and their attributes into desired features or elements and to match and align a series of moments with their corresponding media files or clips,

wherein the logging module either (a) comprises an audio recorder to record audio; or (b) comprises a logging module controller to control the start and stop of the media source when a logging session commences or ends; and

wherein the processing module is configured to align a series of registered moments with the media by aligning a media's beginning with the beginning of the logging session.

7. A system for real time marking of potential moments of interest in media produced by a media source, the system comprising:

a logging module configured to register moments and their attributes in real time;

a marking trigger configured to indicate potential moments of interest; and

a processing module configured to convert the registered moments and their attributes into desired features or elements and to match and align a series of moments with their corresponding media files or clips,

wherein the logging module either (a) comprises an audio recorder to record audio; or (b) comprises a logging module controller to control the start and stop of the media source when a logging session commences or ends; and

wherein the processing module is configured to match a series of registered moments with corresponding media clips or files by comparing and matching the length of the media clips or files and the lengths of the series of registered moments.
