Creating a prototype for VideoSurgeon

Our aim now is to create a prototype for Videosurgeon. This prototype includes opening video, convert it into frames (images), pause at any time and select an object and gather the frames again into a new video.
This prototype is helpful to know if the design is correct or not and if the available materials is enough or we need to investigate more.

More image processing algorithms :)

In the stage of studying the project in more details, we got that we will use not a small number of algorithms to implement it.
dealing with videos is not easy like images. we first convert the video into frames, then use the livewire technology to get the targeted object. We then use tracking algorithms and object detection algorithms to get the object in all frames. Then a background completion and filling algoriths to complent the removed object's place.
the total number of used algorithms exceeds 10 algorithms. The aim is to get correct, accurate and fast results, so we take time to study every algorithm in details.
