The growing demands of video display devices for browsing and retrieval have given rise to the question of how to speed the browsing/retrieval process without losing performance. This experiment looked at the video display technique of using video key frame surrogates. Subjects viewed these key frames simultaneously from between one and four videos. Tasks were performed to determine the human threshold of object recognition and video comprehension. It was our belief that subjects would perform well with one and two simultaneous videos, but would perform poorly with three and four simultaneous videos.
