Images in Kinesis Video Streams
You can use Amazon Kinesis Video Streams APIs and SDKs to help you extract images from your video streams. You can use these images for enhanced playback applications such as thumbnails or enhanced scrubbing, or for use in machine learning pipelines. Kinesis Video Streams offers on-demand image extraction through an API, or automated image extraction from metadata tags in an ingested video.
