Mar 24, 2026

AI Summary

Gemini Embedding 2 allows for the direct projection of raw video into a vector space, enabling efficient video search without transcription. A new command-line interface has been developed to index and search video footage using natural language queries.

Gemini Embedding 2 can embed raw video into a 768-dimensional vector space alongside text, eliminating the need for transcription or frame captioning.
Users can perform queries such as 'green car cutting me off' that directly compare to video clips at the vector level.
A command-line interface has been created to index hours of footage into ChromaDB, allowing for natural language searches and automatic trimming of matching clips.
The cost for indexing video footage is approximately $2.50 per hour, with still-frame detection reducing costs for idle segments, making it more economical for security camera footage.
