 Problem
Statement

15 | P a g e
PROBLEM STATEMENT
The conventional video editing tools lack advanced features and often require
manual intervention, leading to time-consuming processes and suboptimal results.
Existing tools may not efficiently handle tasks such as background removal, object
detection, or AI-powered enhancements. This project seeks to bridge these gaps by
providing a comprehensive solution that leverages the power of artificial intelligence
to enhance the video editing experience.

NUMERICAL FACTS
• The global video editing software market is expected to reach $3.04 billion by
2027 (source: Statista).
• On average, a user spends about 6 hours and 48 minutes per week watching
online videos (source: Limelight Networks).
• The demand for video content is growing rapidly, with over 500 hours of
video uploaded to YouTube every minute (source: Statista).
• Manual video editing processes can consume a significant amount of time,
with professionals spending hours on a single project.
• Automation in video editing can potentially reduce editing time by up to 40%,
enhancing overall productivity.

Analysis

17 | P a g e
SYSTEM DESIGN
AI Life Cycle model is a combination of steps and an iterative model. This model is
best used for large projects which involves continuous enhancements. The AI life
cycle model, also known as the AI development life cycle or AI project life cycle, is
a framework used for managing the development of artificial intelligence systems. It
encompasses various stages from data collection to deployment and maintenance. A
diagram shows all the steps of AI Life Cycle model used there as mentioned fig.1
below.

Proposed System :
To address the limitations of traditional video editing methods, we introduce
“Vool.AI” (Video Editing and Manipulation Tool Using AI).
❖ The primary aim is to streamline the editing process, thereby conserving data,
storage space, and time resources.
❖ The proposed system consolidates various editing functionalities into a single
platform, offering users a more efficient workflow and reducing editing workload
and expenses.
❖ Vool.AI empowers users to make accurate predictions and effortlessly share their
editing decisions, leveraging advanced AI capabilities for analyzing and predicting
outcomes across diverse video editing tasks.
❖ Users can seamlessly load previous video data and utilize predictive editing
features to anticipate optimal editing strategies, enhancing productivity and
efficiency.
❖ The system features a user-friendly interface designed to simplify the editing
experience and maximize user engagement.
❖ Access to Vool.AI from any device ensures flexibility and enables users to
maintain seamless editing workflows regardless of location or device used.
❖ Through the integration of cutting-edge AI technology with intuitive design
principles, Vool.AI offers a comprehensive solution to meet the video editing
and manipulation needs of users.

FEASIBILITY STUDY
The objective of feasibility study is to determine whether or not the proposed system
is feasible. Here we focuses three types of feasibility as mentioned below.

OPERATIONAL FEASIBILITY
It examines how a project plans satisfies the requirements and measures how well a
proposed system solves the problem. It determines how acceptable the software is
within the organization. To the users are enough to run the proposed budget, hence
the system is supposed to the feasible regarding all except of feasibility. Here we
attempt to ensure that every user can access the system easily.

TECHNICAL FEASIBILITY
Technical feasibility centers on the existing computer system (Hardware and
Software etc.) and to what extend it support the proposed addition. In this project,
all the necessary cautions have been taken care to make it technically feasible. The
technical needs of the system vary considerably but might include:-
• The facility to produce outputs in a given time.
• Response time under certain conditions.
The project is technical feasible because of the availability of the required software
hardware and technology. The changes can be made be made in the system as and
when required.

FINANCIAL FEASIBILITY
Focuses specifically on the financial aspects of study. A systems financial benefit
must exceed the cost of developing that system. Financial feasibility considers the
following:
• The cost to conduct a full system investigation.
• The cost of hardware and software for the class of application.
• The benefits in the form of reduced cost or fewer costly errors.
