  • Publication number: 20190026015
    Abstract: Some embodiments of the invention provide a computer based method of editing video, allowing users to add multimedia objects such as sound effect, text, stickers, animation, and template to a specific point in a timeline of the video. In some embodiments, the timeline of the video is represented by a simple scroll bar with a control play button, which allows a user to drag the control play button to a specific point on the timeline. This enables a user to pinpoint a specific frame within a video to edit. In some embodiments, a multimedia panel allows a user to select specific multimedia objects to add to the frame, with further manipulation. A mechanism to store these multimedia objects associated with the selected frame is defined in this invention. In some embodiments, frames with multimedia objects added will have indicators shown on the scroll bar, allowing the user to fast forward to that frame and further edit the frame.

  • Patent number: 9960801
    Abstract: An electronic device may be provided with wireless circuitry. The wireless circuitry may include one or more antennas. An antenna may have an antenna feed that is coupled to a radio-frequency transceiver with a transmission line. An impedance matching circuit may be coupled to the antenna feed to match the impedance of the transmission line and the antenna. The impedance matching circuit and tunable circuitry in the antenna may be formed using integrated circuits. Each integrated circuit may include switching circuitry that is used in switching components such as inductors and capacitors into use. Sensors such as temperature sensors, current and voltage sensors, power sensors, and impedance sensors may be integrated into the integrated circuits. Each integrated circuit may store settings for the switching circuitry and may include communications and control circuitry for communicating with external circuits and processing sensor data.
