Abstract
A system for performing object recognition on images in an image series, for example from a broadcast television signal or video-on-demand source. The system buffers images from the image series and accesses the buffer when an indication is received to start object recognition. The buffered images are sent to a recognition server, which returns object data for objects found in the image. The objects are then navigable using a user interface, through which the user can obtain additional information about the objects, or perform additional functions, such as adding the object to a shopping cart, etc.
