Webinar Q&A: Automatically Analyzing Video with Watson and OpenWhisk - Bluemix Blog

While video becomes more important as a digital media type, video data often remains dark to analytics. This webinar demonstrates how IBM Bluemix OpenWhisk together with Watson services begins to unlock the value of video data. Dark Vision is an application that uploads video files or streams to the cloud, transcodes video data, extracts and passes frames through the Watson Image Recognition and the Alchemy Face Recognition services, and generates meta-data to use in categorizing the video data for searchability. In the presentation, Andreas Nauerz introduces the basics of IBM Bluemix OpenWhisk and Frederic Lavigne demonstrates how to create OpenWhisk code to accomplish Dark Vision's application workflow. Maybe you want to do that because a particular team already has developed skills in this area, maybe because they do mobile development or have done mobile development in the past, and now want to outsource computer-intensive tasks.
