SciMedTV launches the Science and Medicine Video Library, a search engine for scientific and medical video that searches the full-transcripts of more than a quarter million videos created by over 300 leading universities, medical centers, government agencies and scientific institutions, according to the company.
Scientists, engineers, teachers and students can search the online video collections of the NIH, NASA, NSF, CERN, ACM Siggraph, IEEE, Fermi Lab, Institute for Advanced Study, American Physical Society, Nature, Science Magazine, Royal Society, Harvard, Yale, MIT, Stanford, University of California, Oxford, Cambridge, JAMA, NEJM, Mayo Clinic, Johns Hopkins Medicine and hundreds of other universities, research centers, hospitals and publishers.
The SciMedTV user interface offers a sharing feature. Viewers watch the video in a window while seeing the transcript scroll in synch alongside it. Users can choose any segment of a video by selecting a portion of the transcript and posting that add-free segment of the video clip to social media or emailing it. The search terms are highlighted in the transcript and the video can be navigated to any word in the video by clicking on it in the transcript, according to the company. The transcripts of all the videos in the collection were created by the video owners themselves or through YouTube's voice recognition software.
