MULTIFEED (Multi-feed Large Scale Live VOD and
Surveillance)
The
functional capabilities of Multifeed and its underlying digital codec and
transmission technologies are Logovision’s IP and
they represent unique capabilities in mobile video streaming/digital video
playback and concurrent client hosting. These capabilities are quite different,
and to a significant extent not possible in other mobile video streaming technologies.
Multifeed
is a mobile on-demand video streaming application which mobile users can to
stream live video captured by their cellphone cameras
to mobile handheld users. The
application meshes with existing surveillance systems which support very large
numbers of camera feeds, and dynamically
converts live 24/7 surveillance video streams into streams that mobile
users can see on their cellphones. It is a closed,
secure system. Private subscribers or corporate administrators can input live
video feed addresses through the application’s website, and can assign mobile
users on a global basis. It is a system designed to handle incidental but feed
intensive live video traffic - individual mobile users invoke live streams
on-demand from camera and web live feeds.
Multiple
virtual domain Multifeed websites can be created on a single server, or a few
standard Linux quadcore servers can support hundreds (and administer thousands)
of on-demand live input feeds.
Multifeed
servers can dynamically and on-demand transcode both
live and archived video files. The LogoVision
Multifeed server supports thousands of concurrent mobile VOD users through
asynchronous socket handling and load balancing among integrated transcoding/streaming servers. This system is ideal for
large-scale, and potentially virtual, Cloud Computing/Hosting.
The design
also accommodates DVR - mobile user identification of the address of the web
video to be transcoded and streamed from
the handheld.
Our technology now surpasses this initial intellectual property and has been diversified both as new intellectual property
mobile video applications. The new technology provides superior quality,
with the most basic infrastructure, very low video latency, no specific
multimedia authoring or deployment costs, to deliver both small and large
scale on-demand commercial operations, globally, to a wide spectrum of
devices.(even virtual Cloud Hosting http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cloud_computing
is possible, which is problematic
for other live video streaming methods which would not work because of
video latency)
We also run on many handsets...the java handsets(which for example number in the 100s millions globally - we provide options for 3gp, our midp2 software player(requires just midp2 or JBlend/Aplix on the handset and also our browser player version simply runs in Safari for iPhone(without any requirement for Apple Store publication), Opera Mobile for Windows Mobile pdas..native handset browsers, etc. Java handset video streaming normally is limited in high latency and rtsp/3gp embedded players which have static decoding parameters. There would have to be collusion between handset manufacturers and transcoding/streaming server solutions to equate to what we have..that would exist for Darwin (Apple streaming server) streaming video to iPhones, but there would be no advantage to us if someone used a Darwin server to transcode a camera format into H264 for video on the iphone...and it would also repesent a capital investment in hardware and software that would only support Apple plaforms,.
