Spin-off

Document Actions

See below some spin-off created in the framework of IM2 project:


UPICTO

With upicto, our goal is to render videos accessible by exploiting its content, in order to effectively assist users. For instance, we show essential snapshots or extracts of videos for a maximum of entertainment and information delivery. During processing, such essential moments can be notified in order to provide a user the interesting events in real-time.


Simpliquity

Simpliquity is a swiss company developing software for collaborative work and learning. It creates tangible applications: a mix of traditional tools (small-scale models, paper) and technology (augmented reality, simulations), made for groups working and learning activities. You get the best of both worlds: the simplicity and concreteness of physical objects with the flexibility and richness of software.


Lantern Solution Sàrl

LANTERN Solutions Sarl is a start-up company determined to introduce a breakthrough in how technology should serve classroom education. We suggest a novel paradigm in technology-enhanced learning that remains invisible to the teachers when designing the learning activity and to the students when performing it.


Pomelo Sàrl

Increase the value of your marketing studies with eye-tracking data from customers doing shopping in real world situations. The eye-tracking technology is at the core of the business idea which aims at providing eye-tracking information as a means for analysing visual behaviour. The WearCam, a lightweight, portable, head-mounted eye gaze-tracking device and designed both for adults and children is used to capture data.


sugarcube

sugarcube aims to sweeten the life of users by proposing simple interactive technologies for restructuring, processing and generating digital information. These technological solutions are the result of the unusual wedding of two distinct research domains: (printed) document analysis and human-machine interaction!


nViso

Marketers have long sought after quantitative and objective means to gauge consumer emotional responses to their marketing efforts. Traditional methods such as direct questioning have widely acknowledged limitations in discovering emotions that are driving their behavior. nViso tackles this problem by providing automated video analysis to objectively extract emotions from live or pre-recorded webcam or video streams and visualization software, revolutionizing the world of online market research.


Koemei

Koemei is pioneering the world’s first multiparty collaborative conversational speech recognition platform for high-accuracy transcription in various scenarios including videoconference, telepresence, web collaboration, group meeting, class-room lecture and webcast.


Klewel

Klewel records the whole information delivered during presentations without requiring any effort to the speakers and by simply pressing a button. Audio channels, video streams and captured slides are all synchronised and timestamped. Klewel automatically distills the core messages of the speaker from the raw audio and video streams thanks to fast indexing technologies developed at the Idiap research institute. Klewel makes the knowledge of the speakers available to anybody through natural language queries - just like your favorite web search engine.

Idiap Research Institut

kooaba

kooaba provides easy access to mobile content. It is as simple as a hyperlink in the real world. No typing. No codes. Just a picture. The mission is to simplify access to digital information from mobile devices by hyperlinking objects in the real world to relevant content on the mobile Internet.


KeyLemon

KeyLemon is a software company which offers personal biometric authentication solutions, based on face and speech recognition.  KeyLemon offers simple, fast and convenient computer access solutions, for example, to lock the computer when the user moves away from it and unlock it, in less time than it would take to enter a password, when the user come back in front of the camera.  KeyLemon has a strategic partnership with the Idiap research institute which continuously provides state-of-the-art face and speech recognition technologies.


Cinetis

Cinetis imagines, develops and commercializes technologies in the domain of content management, image and sound processing applications. Cinetis has conceived and manufactured an affordable film scanner for digitizing 8mm and 16mm film stocks in SDTV (720x576) resolution.

When a soundtrack is available, it is acquired and resynchronized to the pictures in real time during the process. Cinetis has developped a unique video stabilization technology in collaboration with the Idiap research institute in Switzerland.


Spiderphone

The mission is to help people take control of their conference calls with a simple, secure, robust and economical service that integrates the best of the Internet and the telephone.

Pixartis SA

The system for videoconferencing with automatic speaker detection and tracking comprises first means to pan and zoom on a speaker automatically, to attend a 'head and shoulder' mode, provided that second means detect that a potential speaker rises his/her hand to initiate the tracking. The tracking operates on a 'first-come, first-served' basis, requiring other speakers to wait for their turn. The schedule for the speakers can also be changed interactively by the person who chairs the meeting. The system can be implemented by pure software and runs real-time. It is only limited by the panning speed of the step motors moving the camera.
