Team Project proposal: photostorytelling software--by based on the Windows Phone 8 platform Qing

Ø background

Today, mobile phones have replaced traditional digital cameras as the main shooting tool for People's daily photos. Whether it's a family reunion, a trip, or a daily routine, people use a lot of photos every day. In addition to static photos, the production of photos to stay as memories and share of the beautiful video, is also a common demand for people.

Ø Existing Solutions

"Movie Maker" "will be the Shadow" and other video production software: The advantage is that the user's freedom is very large, according to their own needs to make their own desired video, the disadvantage is the operation of trouble, need some expertise, for the general user is too difficult.

Similar to Magisto's website: The advantage is that users only upload pictures, simple choice of their own needs can be, the disadvantage is not real-time, but wait for the site to be produced and then notify the user by email, and the cost is higher.

Ø idea

The above two solutions are on the PC, users need to export pictures from the phone, and to filter their own to make video, so I want to design a mobile phone app, the phone's photos of a button to convert into a beautiful video.

Ø Functional Analysis

1. According to the time and location of mobile photos, automatically group the photos taken by users at a certain time period, ready to go to the next production process
2. Filter out good quality pictures, and remove those duplicate pictures (users usually shoot several shots in case there is a quality problem)
3. According to the selected picture (the user can also manually add or delete), to provide users with some templates, users choose a
4. Auto-format video template, generate video of this group of photos with background music
5. Provides customizable options for users to change and optimize videos, such as editing video edits, adjusting photos for each scene in the video, and adjusting music and subtitles

Ø Project Analysis

Need

With the prevalence of photography now, the number of photos has increased sharply, simple, accurate and fast photo processing, video to share photos, more effective, direct and image, so that users are exempt from managing a large number of photos, and now this type of app on mobile devices are relatively small, especially on WP, Therefore, there is a relatively large development value.

Approach

The techniques to be used are:

1. Image quality Assessment
2. Image processing
3. Text layout
4. Video generation

These technologies have some mature algorithms in the multimedia and computer vision field, our main task is to choose the right algorithm, in order to ensure the effectiveness of the premise of minimizing complexity, so that the entire processing process faster

Benefits

Share photos in a video, more effective, direct, and image, freeing users from managing large numbers of photos

Competition

And now this type of app on mobile devices are relatively small, especially WP, so there is a relatively large development value.
