FotoInMotion intends to create immersive multimedia stories

The goal of this new European project called FotoInMotion, which is promoted by INESC TEC's Centre for Telecommunications and Multimedia (CTM), is to develop an innovative solution for the reutilisation of audiovisual content. Allowing content creators to build multimedia stories in a simple way, this idea intends to develop automatic tools for context identification, recognition of objects and people with visual information and creation of semantic descriptions, whether from an original photo or from visual content available online.
