Business method for selectable semantic codec pairs for very low data-rate video transmission
First Claim
1. A business method for providing advice to a remote location, the method comprising the steps of:
- inputting one or more video streams at a field location;
selecting a selected compression process out of a set of compression processes at an office location based on a task, compressing one or more of the video streams at the field location using the selected compression process to obtain a compressed video; and
transmitting the compressed video from the field location to the office location.

Abstract
A business method for using computer image processing for selectable task-based digital video compression is described. The method is intended to reduce travel of experts and let these experts direct field agents in performing tasks remotely. The tasks to be performed in the remote field can be monitoring, manipulating, and navigating. A field agent performs the manipulation and navigation operations, this agent can be a human being or a robot. The task-based compression algorithms use computer vision techniques to extract the bare minimum amount of information from the remote field scenery to allow the task to be performed. High frame rate photo-realistic reconstruction of the remote scene is not generally necessary.
