Abstract:
Implementations described herein relate to methods, systems, and computer-readable media to encode a video. A method includes capturing a video frame that includes a face of a person. The method further includes detecting a face in the video frame. The method further includes segmenting the video frame into a plurality of rectangles, the plurality of rectangles including a face rectangle with pixels corresponding to the face in the video frame. The method further includes packing the video frame based on the plurality of rectangles, wherein a greater number of pixels are allocated to the face rectangle as compared to other rectangles in the plurality of rectangles. The method further includes encoding the video frame with metadata describing the packing.
