14 February 2019 (Brussels, BE) – The Broadcast Video Expo (BVE) is the premier event for the media production industry in the UK. It covers a variety of subjects, ranging from content creation and various production services, to the delivery and management of media productions. It attracts over 12,500 creative professionals, business leaders and tech professionals every year.
Valossa AI media solutions will be represented (they will be at Booth H73 in the Startup Zone) where they will feature their latest demos and you’ll have a chance to meet Valossa team members.
Last year we profiled Valossa in a video interview with Mika Rautiainen, the company CEO, filmed at the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona, and that video can be viewed below.
Some background
Valossa has an incredible full stack AI solution designed for anybody working with video. I had a treat discussing with Mika how you find that movie where Sean Connery wears red trousers. Or romantic comedies set in Hawaii. Valossa can do all that but it really does not come close to the incredible, sophisticated technology they have developed. Mika has the deepest experience I have ever seen in computer vision and artificial intelligence for media content recognition systems and his research team’s innovations in AI have been integrated into Valossa’s content analysis engine, as well as the company’s emotion and expression recognition engine.
Based on the latest deep learning techniques, Valossa’s AI recognition capabilities are truly unparalleled, being able to recognize people, visual context and concept, speech topics, locations, potential compliance issues, video categories and other video entities at an unprecedented level of detail, from scene to higher level understanding:
