Abstract: A method includes capturing, in a streamer device, a video stream from a user comprising a plurality of images, receiving, in the streamer device from the user, a specification of an image location associated with the plurality of images, receiving, in the streamer device from a remote provider server, incoming image data, combining, in the streamer device, the video stream and the incoming image data, to form a composite user video stream, wherein the incoming image data is disposed in the image location within the plurality of images, sending, from the streamer device to a video distribution server, the composite video stream, receiving, in the streamer device from the video distribution server, video consumption data associated with the composite video stream provided by the video distribution server and sending, from the streamer device to the remote provider server, the video consumption data associated with the composite video.

Abstract: A method includes capturing a user video having first and second images, determining first and second marker locations, respectively, in the first and second images, receiving object data from a remote server, determining first and second characteristics, respectively, in response to the first and second locations and the first and second images, rendering a first object in response to the first characteristics and the object data and a second object in response to the second characteristics and the object data, forming a composite user video comprising a first composite image comprising the first image and the first object and a second composite image comprising the second image and the second object, sending the composite user video to a video distribution server, receiving, from the video distribution server, video consumption data associated with the composite user video, and sending to the remote server, the video consumption data.

Abstract: A MEMS device includes a first MEMS sensor associated with a first spatial plane and a second MEMS sensor is associated with a spatial second plane not co-planar with the first spatial plane, wherein the first MEMS sensor is configured to provide a first interrupt and a first data in response to a physical perturbation, wherein the second MEMS sensor is configured to provide a second interrupt and second data in response to the physical perturbation, and a controller configured to receive the first interrupt at a first time and the second interrupt at a second time different from the first time, wherein the controller is configured to determine a latency between the first time and the second time, and wherein the controller is configured to determine motion data in response to the first data, to the second data, and to the latency.

Abstract: A monitoring device includes a male portion including a housing with a top on a first ear side, a first needle and a shorter second needle for piercing the ear, electronic components including a battery, processor and temperature sensor, a thermally conductive ring on the first ear side coupled to the temperature sensor, a female portion including a housing with a bottom surface on a second ear side, a first and second openings in the housing, a first chamber for physically selectively retaining and releasing the first needle, and a second chamber for inhibiting rotation of the male portion relative to the female portion, when the first needle is physically retained by the first chamber.
