Abstract: Existence of instrumentation for automatic video recording creates an excess capacity of video recording for those who own automatic video recorders. Others may want to utilize this excess capacity to record their activities thus there is a need for a system that helps match those who would like to utilize the excess capacity with those who have such capacity. Such excess capacity is matched with demand to use such excess capacity by creating a network of automatic video recording units and tags that are associated with people who want to be recorded.

Abstract: A system and method are provided for automatic cooperative object tracking using gain comparison of antenna pairs facing different directions. In cooperative object tracking, the object is associated with a radiation source, or beacon, that emits radiation that is detected by the tracking system. The present invention makes use of antennas that are not highly oriented antennas but are characterized by having a steep drop in their gain profiles at a particular angle of incidence of the radiation that they detect.

Abstract: Current indoor tracking methods are inadequate to accurately and reliably point a pointer or camera at an object or a person doing an activity. An apparatus and method are provided for cooperative tracking that is operable both indoors and outdoors. The system works using ranging technology without the need for placing radiation sources and/or sensors in set locations around the location where tracking takes place. The apparatus and method may be used for automatic filming, allowing free movement of both the subject of the filming and that of the camera with a compact design, and providing easy setup at any location.

Abstract: A network of systems to automatically record videos of one or multiple freely moving subjects using one or multiple cameras. The networked systems employ essential software for recording high quality videos. The network allows the development and use of additional software applications that modify and supplement the essential software. The network of systems further provides features for posting, playing, and streaming videos on a dedicated website, video hosting websites, and/or on social networking websites.

Abstract: System and methods for pointing a device, such as a camera, at a remote target wherein the pointing of the device is controlled by a combination of location information obtained by global positioning technology and image recognition of the target.

Abstract: A compliant electronic device is presented. The device may be, for example a wearable display for sports applications. The compliant electronic device comprises a thin sheet with a regular pattern of openings optimized to provide maximum compliance. The device may be partially or completely embedded in foam or other highly stretchable and compressible material that, while preserving compliance, protects the device from untoward environmental influences.

Abstract: The video recording systems disclosed herein comprise recording devices built in a variety of system architectures depending on the type of intended use. The guiding principle of the system architectures is that an optimal recording device will have optics, sensor, control electronics, and communication capability designed for the purpose of use. User controls, as well as power sources may be separated from the optimal recording device. Different applications may demand a variety of accessories including camera mounts, automatic camera orientation capabilities, remote control devices, and remote power sources, all of which may be designed as use-specific devices and optimized for the purpose of use.

Abstract: Current video sharing systems, particularly systems sharing sports videos suffer from lots of users sharing low quality video recordings. High quality video is manifested primarily in capturing interesting content and good camera handling. These qualities may be achieved by amateur videographers by employing automated video recording devices, using highlight finding software to obtain short but interesting video clips, and augmenting the video clips with special effects and musical soundtracks. Systems and methods provide for sharing videos recorded by automatic video recording devices. The system plays video files at a user's request accompanied with music clips if desired and permits users to participate in improving video quality by providing feedback to the video sharing system.

Abstract: A video sharing method for automatic video recording and for sharing recorded videos, comprising: registering specialized equipment and users; accepting and storing video files and music files; building searchable databases of uploaded video and music files; accepting user requests; selecting a music file; playing video files accompanied with the selected music file; and soliciting and accepting user feedback. A system plays video files at a user's request accompanied with music clips if desired.
