"They have just connected all objects in video to videos timeline"

The technology is awesome if it's powered by software that interprets what elements of a video constitute an object, and then connects those elements to a timeline in a single, automated swoop. I've assumed that's the case, but I could be completely wrong.

Whether they actually capture objects is unclear. You could get the same results by building the vector field of motion (pixelwise) and then detecting if the mouse moves along the vectors (fast forward) or against them (back). So, you aren’t "dragging" the car with your mouse - your mouse is simply following the path of the car.
