Abstract: Systems, apparatus, and methods for stabilization and blending of exposures. So-called Electronic Image Stabilization (EIS) techniques use image manipulation software to compensate for camera motion. Unfortunately, existing EIS techniques cannot compensate for artifacts introduced by low shutter speed (e.g., blurs). Various embodiments of the present disclosure generate stabilized images from multiple exposures. In one exemplary embodiment, the stabilized exposures are blended using a linear sum of the color data for each pixel of the image. By stabilizing each exposure and linearly summing the light information, the camera shake can be removed, and the scene motion blur can be controlled. The stabilization and blending techniques enable a mathematical emulation of a selected shutter angle from many high-speed exposures.

Abstract: Positions of an image capture device may be used to estimate a time-lapse video frame rate with which time-lapse video frames are generated. The time-lapse video frame rate may be adjusted based on apparent motion between pairs of generated time-lapse video frames. The adjusted time-lapse video frame rate may be used to generate additional time-lapse video frames.

Abstract: An image capture device includes a first housing, a second housing, a first integrated sensor-lens assembly (ISLA), and a second ISLA. The second housing is coupled to the first housing to form an internal compartment. The first ISLA includes a first image sensor coupled to a first lens in fixed alignment. The second ISLA includes a second image sensor coupled to a second lens in fixed alignment. The first ISLA is positively statically connected to the first housing, and the second ISLA is coupled to the first housing indirectly via the first ISLA.

Abstract: An image capture apparatus with a first image sensor and lens assembly (first ISLA), a second image sensor and lens assembly (second ISLA); a connector module, and a front connector. The connector module connects the first ISLA and the second ISLA are in a back-to-back configuration. The front connector is connected to the connector module via fasteners that extend into the front connector and the connector module in a direction from the first ISLA towards the second ISLA so that the first ISLA and the second ISLA are connected within the image capture device.

Abstract: A video edit may include one or more segment of a video. A graphical user interface may convey information that indicates video editing decisions made to generate the video edit. The graphical user interface may include a timeline element to represent the length of the video and one or more inclusion elements to visually indicate the segment(s) of the video included in the video edit. The graphical user interface may convey information on the segment(s) of the video that have been automatically included in the video edit and the segment(s) of the video that have been manually included in the video edit.

Abstract: Positions of an image capture device during capture of a video may be transferred to a computing device before the video is transferred to the computing device. The positions of the image capture device may be used to determine a viewing window for the video before the video is obtained. The viewing window may be used to present a stabilized view of the video when the video is obtained. For example, a stabilized view of the video may be presented as the video is streamed to the computing device.

Abstract: An object may be tracked through a video using the sizes of objects depicted in the video. The size of an object to be tracked (tracking object) may be determined using the depiction of the tracking object in a video frame. In a subsequent video frame, an object that has (1) a size that is closest to the tracking size, and (2) a size that differs from the tracking size by less than a threshold amount may be identified to be the tracking object. The tracking size may be updated with the size of the object identified to be the tracking object for use in the next video frame. This enables objects to be tracked simply and quickly by using the sizes of objects. The video frames may be framed for presentation using the positions of the tracking object in the video frames.

Abstract: A coupler (mount) is disclosed that is configured to releasably connect an image capture device and an accessory. The coupler includes a shaft and a lever that is operatively connected to the shaft, and is repositionable between unlocked and locked positions as well as between disengaged and engaged positions. When the coupler is in the unlocked positioned, the image capture device and the accessory are movable in relation to each other, and when the coupler is in the locked positioned, the image capture device and the accessory are fixed in relation to each other. When the coupler is in the disengaged position, the shaft is removable from the image capture device and the accessory, and when the coupler is in the engaged position, the shaft is non-removable from the image capture device and the accessory.

Abstract: A lens adapter is attached to an image capture device to lower the profile of the image capture device when mounted to a mounting device. The lens adapter includes a lens that refracts light incident from an outer lens of the lens adapter into collimated light. The lens adapter includes an optical device that alters the direction of the collimated light and directs the collimated light to an image capture device lens assembly.

Abstract: An image capture device that includes a housing; a heat generating component enclosed by internal surfaces of the housing; and a first heatsink and a second heatsink that are each simultaneously and thermally connected with the heat generating component. One or both of the first and second heatsinks positioned on an external surface of the housing.

Abstract: An image capture device including: heat generating devices, one or more batteries, and a sensor heat spreader. The heat generating devices generate a thermal load. The sensor heat spreader is in thermal communication with one or more of the heat generating devices and extends from the one or more of the heat generating devices to the one or more batteries so that all or a portion of the thermal load is transferred to the one or more batteries.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to methods and systems for providing alerts to a helmet user. A method includes determining a current location of the user, determining a transit area and a transit direction of the user based on the current location, retrieving records of transit alerts based on the transit area of the user, selecting relevant transit alerts from the records of transit alerts based on the transit direction of the user, and alerting the user of the relevant transit alerts.

Abstract: A video may be captured by an image capture device in motion. A stabilized view of the video may be generated by providing a punchout of the video. The punchout of the video may compensate for rotation of the image capture device during capture of the video. Different field of view punchouts, such as wide field of view punchout and linear field of view punchout, may be used to stabilize the video. Different field of view punchouts may provide different stabilization margins to stabilize the video. The video may be stabilized by switching between different field of view punchouts based on the amount of stabilization margin needed to stabilize the video.

Abstract: A video may be captured by an image capture device. A stabilized view of the video may be generated by using a punchout of the video. The shape and/or size of the punchout may be dynamically changed based on stabilization performance of the video. The shape and/or size of the punchout may be changed when the punchout is moving within the video. The shape and/or size of the punchout may not be changed when the punchout is not moving within the video.
