  • Patent number: 11631435
    Abstract: Media items captured by a media capture device may include and/or be associated with values of a clock-change identifier. The values of the clock-change identifier may be set based on when and how many times the time of the media capture device was changed. Based on a capture-time of a media item being incorrect, other media items with the same value of the clock-change identifier may be determined to be incorrect. Capture-times of the other media items may be corrected based on capture-time correction of the media item.

  • Patent number: 10817726
    Abstract: Physical storage media accessible to a remote device may store video information defining video content. The video content may be characterized by capture information. The remote device may transmit at least a portion of the capture information to a computing device. The computing device may identify one or more portions of the video content based on the transmitted capture information. The remote device may receive the identification of the identified portion(s) of the video content from the computing device. Responsive to the reception of the identification, the remote device may transmit the video information defining at least some of the identified portion(s) of the video content to the computing device.

  • Patent number: 10560655
    Abstract: Systems and methods to automatically transfer audiovisual content include camera devices, client computing devices, and centralized servers. A camera device captures audiovisual content and notifies an external entity, e.g., a (client) computing device or a centralized server. The external entity may effectuate transfer of the content to other computing devices and/or destinations. Operations on the audiovisual content, including but not limited to tagging, transcoding, clipping, speed changes, and/or image cropping, are synchronized and propagated across different computing devices and the centralized server such that any user from any computing device can be presented with the latest version of any particular audiovisual content.

  • Patent number: 10324563
    Abstract: Examples disclosed herein relate to identifying a target touch region of a touch-sensitive surface based on an image. Examples include a touch input detected at a location of a touch-sensitive surface, an image representing an object disposed between a camera that captures the image and the touch-sensitive surface, identifying a target touch region of a touch-sensitive surface based on an image, and rejecting the detected touch input when the location of the detected touch input is not within any of the at least one identified target touch region of the touch-sensitive surface.

  • Patent number: 10268318
    Abstract: Examples disclosed herein relate to aligning content displayed from a projector on to a touch sensitive mat. Examples include detecting a border of the mat, wherein the mat includes a surface area of a first spectral reflectance characteristic on to which the projector is to project the content, and the border of a second spectral reflectance characteristic different from the first spectral reflectance characteristic surrounding a perimeter of the surface area. As an example, detecting the border of the mat generally includes differentiating the second spectral reflectance characteristic of the border from the first spectral reflectance characteristic of the surface area. Examples include detecting a border of the content displayed on to the mat, and adjusting projector settings for the border of the content displayed on to the mat to fit within the detected border of the mat.
