FRAME SELECTION FOR STREAMING APPLICATIONS - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17955746 titled 'FRAME SELECTION FOR STREAMING APPLICATIONS

Simplified Explanation

The patent application addresses reference frame selection in video streaming applications by replacing a first set of frames with a second set of frames containing a non-blurred frame (NBF) based on an indication within the encoded video stream.

  • The innovation involves using processing units to dynamically replace frames in a video stream with a non-blurred frame, improving the overall video quality.
  • The system utilizes a cache to store frames and efficiently switch them out based on the presence of a non-blurred frame in the stream.

Potential Applications

This technology could be applied in:

  • Video streaming services
  • Video conferencing platforms
  • Virtual reality applications

Problems Solved

  • Enhances video quality by replacing blurred frames with non-blurred frames.
  • Improves user experience by providing clearer and more detailed video content.

Benefits

  • Higher video quality
  • Reduced blurriness in video streams
  • Enhanced user satisfaction

Potential Commercial Applications

Optimized Video Streaming Technology for Enhanced Quality

Possible Prior Art

There may be prior art related to dynamic frame replacement in video streaming applications, but specific examples are not provided in the abstract.

Unanswered Questions

How does the system determine which frames to replace with the non-blurred frame?

The abstract does not detail the specific algorithm or method used to identify and replace frames in the video stream.

What impact does the dynamic frame replacement have on the overall bandwidth and processing requirements of the system?

The abstract does not mention how the system manages the additional processing load or bandwidth requirements when replacing frames in real-time.


Original Abstract Submitted

Systems and methods herein address reference frame selection in video streaming applications using one or more processing units to replace, during receipt of an encoded video stream, a first set of frames stored in a cache with a second set of frames based at least in part on an indication within the encoded video stream that the second set of frames includes a non-blurred frame (NBF).
