  • Patent number: 11449542
    Abstract: Systems and methods are presented for identifying unwanted photos and videos on a device. Such systems may contain various modules to do one or more of: (i) review the image quality of photos and videos, (ii) review a user's interaction with photos and videos, (iii) review the properties of photos and videos, (iv) review the user's profile/preferences as to photos, or (v) review information obtained from additional sources regarding the user, his or her photos, and any interaction therewith. With one tap, an exemplary application can identify all of a user's unwanted photos, such as, for example: photos with bad lighting, blurry shots, similar photos, and even photos that the system predicts a user may find boring. Any photos that an exemplary system is unsure about may be left for the user to review and act upon. By analyzing user decisions exemplary systems become progressively more accurate and thus improve their predictions over time.

  • Publication number: 20150213001
    Abstract: Systems and methods for creating an all-in-one experience by combining media (photos, videos, etc.), content (text, external feeds) and meta-data (tagged friends, location) into one interactive canvas in an automatic manner. An application of the invention can run on any user device: mobile device, personal computer, tablet, laptop, game console, or television. The system can scan user data, filter unwanted content, package it into coherent multimedia collections and display them on any user device.

  • Patent number: 8451127
    Abstract: A locator system for electronic devices including at least one jacket for a modular wireless communicator, each jacket having an identifier, and a modular wireless communicator that attaches to each one of the at least one jacket, including a positioning system for identifying a location of the modular wireless communicator, a log manager for recording a plurality of entries in a log, each entry including the jacket identifier for a jacket currently attached to the modular wireless communicator, and a current location as identified by the positioning system, and a controller for notifying the log manager of occurrence of a log trigger event, wherein the log manager records a new entry in the log when it receives a notification of a log trigger event from the controller, and wherein the log trigger events enable determination of a location where a jacket was last actively used with the modular wireless communicator.

  • Patent number: 8447020
    Abstract: A method for predicting to whom a phone call is being made, including identifying at least one state parameter for a mobile phone, and at least one weighting factor corresponding to the at least one state parameter for each identified state parameter, predicting one or more likely contacts that a user of the mobile phone is calling, given that the user is making a phone call, based on the identified state parameter, for each likely contact, assigning a combined weight to the likely contact based on the at least one weighting factor, ranking the likely contacts according to the combined weights, and facilitating making a phone call to one or more of the likely contacts with the highest rankings. A mobile phone is also described and claimed.
