Incorporated in 1995, Virage is a leading provider of software and application services that allow media and entertainment companies, enterprises, and consumers to deploy, manage and distribute their video content over the Internet or intranets. Virage products and services make video easy to locate, browse and use, and allow content owners to derive significant value from their video assets by transforming them into engaging web experiences that incorporate on-demand viewing, targeted advertising, community building and e-commerce.
Virage technology breaks traditional video into discrete video clips in real time by identifying visual scene changes, spoken words, names and faces of recognized speakers, topics discussed within each clip and other important information. Our search engine allows web users to search for and view any part of a video. Whether the user is looking for a particular character or topic, the video search engine allows them to move quickly and easily to the desired part of the video. As such, Virage transforms traditional video into a collection of short-format video "clips" that can be viewed and experienced in a way that is familiar and comfortable to web users.
Virage has developed a broad suite of products and application services that enable customers to transform assets into customized and engaging web content. Our products and services include: Virage Interactive™ services, VideoLogger™, AudioLogger™, Video Search Tools™, MyLogger™ and the Visual Information Retrieval Engine™.
