Summer project

Artificial Intelligence Specialization · Cohort 2025

Real-Time Video Understanding via Captioning and LLM-Based Scene Summarization

This project presents a real-time video interpretation system that captures live camera feeds, detects objects using YOLO, and generates natural language captions for key frames using multimodal models. These frame-wise captions are then aggregated and summarized every minute using large language models (LLMs), such as Cohere’s command-r-plus, to produce a concise human-like scene description. The pipeline includes intelligent object detection, caption refinement, class-based statistics, and prompt-engineered summarization to transform raw video into structured and meaningful summaries, enabling downstream applications in surveillance, content moderation, and assistive technologies
