Understanding the Challenge

Our client needed an automated solution to help them identify and blur objects in their video production that were irrelevant to the target audience or could inadvertently market other brand labels. Manually processing all videos produced in bulk was tedious and time-consuming. Additionally, the manual approach risked inconsistencies and human error, which could compromise the quality and compliance of the final output.

Solution

Folio3 AI developed a web-based application where the client could upload videos and select objects that must be detected and blurred in all the following videos. Deployed AI-driven software capable of detecting objects and faces in video frames with high accuracy. The software automatically applied blurs to selected areas as per the predefined criteria.

Web-Based App Interface

Users can upload video files that may contain different scenes with various visible objects.
