This is interesting. I will have to try it. Have you tried this using “recognize with Be My Eyes”?
Pam From: [email protected] <[email protected]> On Behalf Of Sieghard Weitzel Sent: Thursday, December 12, 2024 1:12 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Using Seeing AI to add descriptions to a short video Hi, I tried this once before but can’t remember where the video came from, in any case, after a significant time processing the video, I was informed that the format was not compatible. The other night just before 3 AM and when I happened to be awake for a short time, I heard a notification from our Ring video doorbell that there was “Motion at the front door”. I listened and heard some small noises, at one point a notification actually said “Person detected at the front door”. So I thought I try this one more time, I downloaded one of the video clips to my Photos library, then I opened it and tapped on “Share”, I then selected “Recognize with Seeing AI”. Once again the processing took some time, I didn’t time it, but I’d say a minute, maybe a bit less. To my delight after it was done I received a play by play description of what was going on. Of course Ring was wrong with respect to a person, but I noticed in the past that it sometimes says this when my dog is in the backyard where we have a Ring Stickup cam so apparently Ring is not yet using AI to get much better recognition of objects, people and animals. I assume this is possibly simply a matter of logistics because AI uses a lot of electricity and given the volume of Millions and probably tens of Millions of Ring videos I understand how that may not really be possible. In any case, Seeing AI correctly identified our night time visitors as a couple of deer, we live in a small town in Northwestern BC and having wildlife in town is not unusual here. In the fall, September and October, we often have black bears in town looking for food to fatten up before they hibernate, mule deer and white tailed deer are all over town throughout the winter and the other morning as my wife and I were having breakfast next to our picture window facing the street, a moose and her calf were walking down the middle of the street. I made a recording of the audio description and have included a Dropbox link for those who are interested to hear it, but I did ask one of my sighted employees and he said it was pretty much right on target. I did not change the 0 at the end of the link to a 1 so the file downloads, the link as it is should either start playing the recording or if not you may have to look for a “play” button when your browser opens: https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/h9jobkmzn5z5dy91ce0hj/Visiting-dear.m4a?rlkey=vig24du0emmm4q39b94ge5z6l <https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/h9jobkmzn5z5dy91ce0hj/Visiting-dear.m4a?rlkey=vig24du0emmm4q39b94ge5z6l&dl=0> &dl=0 Best regards, Sieghard -- The following information is important for all members of the V iPhone list.
