Abstract:
One embodiment described herein may take the form of a system or method for detecting an image within a video component of a multimedia presentation on a distribution system. In general, the system or method may analyze one or more frames of a video component of a presentation to detect the presence of an image within the one or more frames that matches or approximates one or more images stored in a searchable database. Once detected, the system or method may compare one or more features of the potentially matching image with the collection of images. If the potential image matches or approximates an image within the searchable database, the system or method may provide a selectable link within the multimedia presentation that links the detected image with associated information concerning the image. Such information may be presented on a display device to the viewer of the presentation.
