This is the first step of the editor for "Time Analysis." Choose the source video you want to analyze.
This article covers STEP1 of the Work Analysis series. For the full picture, see Work Analysis overview and getting started.
The role of this step has changed
Work Analysis has been split into three: Quick Analysis / Compare with SOP / Time Analysis. As a result, STEP1 has become a step where you only choose a video.
The AI "Improvement suggestion" that used to appear in this step has moved to Quick Analysis. If you want to see room for improvement, analyze the same video with Quick Analysis before you start Time Analysis. You do not need an SOP or standard time, and a single video alone shows Improvement hints and Risky moments.
Improvement suggestions you have already made remain in the "Improvement suggestion" sheet, as before, when you export the Work Analysis results to Excel.
Before you begin: Prepare a video that has completed AI analysis
In STEP1, you can only choose a video whose AI analysis has been completed. Run AI analysis in [Media] and wait until it finishes. Videos shot with a 360-degree camera cannot be selected, because they cannot be used for Work Analysis.
If you set the language correctly when running video AI analysis, the accuracy of the extraction results from STEP2 onward will improve.
Choose video
From the side menu
- Open [Work Analysis] → [Time Analysis] in the side menu
- Click [Create new] at the upper right to create a Project
- When the editor opens, click [Select a video] and choose a video that has completed AI analysis
From media
You can start from the video card in [Media], or from [Run work analysis with this media] in the media list. A screen for choosing whether to start with Quick Analysis or Time Analysis appears, so select [Time Analysis]. A Project with that video already selected is created, and the editor opens.
If you want to change the video
Use [Change video] at the bottom of the screen to select a different video. If you change the video after moving on to STEP2 or later, the editing data for extraction, classification, and improvement up to that point will be discarded (a confirmation dialog appears).
Rotating the video (90°)
If the video appears sideways, use the "Rotate 90°" button at the upper right of the video to turn the display. The rotation setting is shared and saved across the whole Project (all Steps and comparison), so once you align it in STEP1, the video plays in the same orientation in the later steps. It does not affect the exported video.
Proceed as-is or re-shoot the video
Click [Proceed with this video] at the bottom of the screen to move on to STEP2 (Extract). To use a different video, use [Change video].
If the work procedure itself needs to be reviewed (for example, changing the flow of movement or reorganizing the sequence of tasks), re-shooting the video here is the faster route in the end. If you are unsure, first analyze the same video with Quick Analysis, check the Risky moments and Improvement hints, and then decide.
AI analysis of Element work runs in STEP2. Analysis starts only after you specify "Is the same work being repeated?" and Range to analyze on the STEP2 settings screen, so no analysis runs at STEP1. It also does not use any AI quota.
Tips for using it well
- If you prepare a video in which the same work is repeated 3 to 5 or more times, it is easier to build a model cycle in STEP2, and variation is easier to see in STEP6 (comparison)
- Even if the cycle is missing at the start or end of the recording, you can specify the Range to analyze in STEP2, exclude the missing part, and analyze the rest. Try this before re-shooting the video.
- If several tasks appear in one video, create a separate Project for each task with its own range. This makes it easier to match the elements.
