The future of digital telecommunications is strictly linked to systems which are able to manage multimedia databases providing type specific interfaces. The purpose of the VIDEO Research Unit at ITC-irst is to provide leading edge tools to cope with image and video data in type and application specific ways. Current research and development activities are focused on two applications: video stream analysis and presentation (Exprit Projects EUROMEDIA and OPAL); browsing of police mug-shots databases and creation of photographic quality identikits (SpotIt!). The present paper will briefly describe the systems developed at ITC-irst and the technologies upon which they are based.

Abstract
The future of digital telecommunications is strictly linked to systems which are able to manage multimedia databases providing type specific interfaces. The purpose of the VIDEO Research Unit at ITC-irst is to provide leading edge tools to cope with image and video data in type and application specific ways. Current research and development activities are focused on two applications: video stream analysis and presentation (Exprit Projects EUROMEDIA and OPAL); browsing of police mug-shots databases and creation of photographic quality identikits (SpotIt!). The present paper will briefly describe the systems developed at ITC-irst and the technologies upon which they are based.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
