Video Paper is a prototype system for multimedia browsing, analysis, and replay. Key frames extracted from a video recording are printed on paper together with bar codes that allow for random access and replay. A transcript for the audio track can also be shown so that users can read what was said, thus making the document a stand-alone representation for the contents of the multimedia recording. The Video Paper system has been used for several applications, including the analysis of recorded meetings, broadcast news, oral histories and personal recordings. This demonstration will show how the Video Paper system was applied to these domains and the various replay systems that were developed, including a self-contained portable implementation on a PDA and a fixed implementation on desktop PC.
