At the Forefront of Rich Media Management

• Automatically capture, encode and index television, video and audio content from any source

• Automatically generate metadata - no need for manual tagging

• Automatically cross-reference multimedia with any other form of information

Virage is at the forefront of Rich Media Management, developing the world's first technology to automatically capture, encode and index television, video and audio content from any source, dynamically. By automatically generating a comprehensive range of metadata, including keyframes, face recognition, speaker information and a full transcript of the audio stream, Virage ensures that rich media is immediately fully searchable and accessible by any user.

Virage invests heavily in R&D and continually strives to launch visionary, industry-leading products which change the way rich media assets are considered and utilized. A wide range of languages are fully supported by Virage including those which require double byte encoding capabilities, such as Arabic, Mandarin Chinese and Russian, as well as single byte European languages such as English, French and Spanish. Virage is the only technology on the market which allows users to search foreign multimedia in their native language; for example, using Virage, the content of Arabic broadcast streams can be searched in English and the content fully understood.
