METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR AUTOMATICALLY GENERATING LABOR STANDARDS FROM VIDEO DATA
First Claim
1. A computer implemented method for generating a set of recommendations for performing a task according to a labor standard, the computer implemented method comprising:
- automatically detecting event data derived from a continuous video stream, wherein the event data comprises metadata describing a sequence of motions for performing the task;
parsing the event data to identify appropriate event data describing a discrete set of motions from the sequence of motions;
analyzing, using an analysis server, the discrete set of motions to form a labor standard, wherein the labor standard specifies an optimal manner of performing the discrete set of motions; and
generating a set of recommendations for performing the task efficiently according to the labor standard.

Abstract
A computer implemented method, apparatus, and computer usable program product for creating a labor standard for a task. The process automatically detects event data derived from a continuous video stream, wherein the event data comprises metadata describing a sequence of motions for performing the task, and parses the event data to identify appropriate event data describing a discrete set of motions from the sequence of motions. The process then analyzes, using an analysis server, the discrete set of motions to form a labor standard, wherein the labor standard specifies an optimal manner of performing the discrete set of motions. Thereafter, the process generates a set of recommendations for performing the task efficiently according to the labor standard.
