intel/image-based-video-search repository overview

⁠Image-Based Video Search Sample Application

Performs near real-time analysis and image-based search to detect and retrieve objects of interest in large video datasets.

⁠Overview

The Image-Based Video Search sample application lets users search live or recorded camera feeds by providing an image and view matching objects with location, timestamp, and confidence score details.

This sample provides a working example of how to combine edge AI microservices for video ingestion, object detection, feature extraction, and vector-based search.

You can use this foundation to build solutions for diverse use cases, including city infrastructure monitoring and security applications, helping operators quickly locate objects of interest across large video datasets.

⁠About this Docker Image

---

This Docker image serves as the front-end component of the Image-Based Video Search application. It provides a user-friendly interface for interacting with the system, allowing users to upload images, search live or recorded video feeds, and view results with detailed metadata such as location, timestamp, and confidence scores.

The front end integrates seamlessly with the back-end microservices for video ingestion, object detection, feature extraction, and vector-based search, enabling near real-time analysis and retrieval of objects of interest from large video datasets.

This image is designed to be lightweight, efficient, and easily deployable as part of the overall application stack.

This reference implementation is designed to facilitate smart cities application development. It is not intended for police, military or similar surveillance uses, use as part of critical infrastructure operations, determining access to education or other significant resource, managing workers or evaluating employment performance.

This reference implementation is intended to allow users to examine and evaluate Image-Based Video Search application and the associated performance of Intel technology solutions. The accuracy of computer models is a function of the relation between the data used to train them and the data that the models encounter after deployment. This model has been tested using datasets that may not be sufficient for use in production applications. Accordingly, while the model may serve as a strong foundation, Intel recommends and requests that this model be tested against data the model is likely to encounter in specific deployments.

Intel is committed to respecting human rights and avoiding causing or contributing to adverse impacts on human rights. See Intel’s Global Human Rights Principles.
