Abstract: To address issues of capturing and processing images, a mobile computing device is provided. The mobile computing device may include a two-part housing coupled by a hinge, with first and second parts that include first and second displays, respectively. The hinge may permit the displays to rotate throughout a plurality of angular orientations. The mobile computing device may include one or more sensor devices, processor, first camera, and second camera mounted in the housing. The one or more sensor devices may be configured to measure the relative angular displacement of the housing, and the processor may be configured to process images captured by the first and second cameras according to a selected function based upon the relative angular displacement measured by the one or more sensor devices.

Abstract: A hinged multi-screen computing device is provided that includes a processor, at least one speaker, two display devices connected by a hinge containing a hinge sensor, and a housing with two parts, each including a display device. At least one of the displays is configured to display GUI controls, one which adjusts a volume balance between a first and second GUI element displayed on each of the first and second displays, and another which adjusts overall volume.

Abstract: A mobile computing device is provided that comprises a housing having a first part and a second part coupled by a hinge, the first part including a first display and the second part including a second display, wherein the hinge is configured to permit the first and second displays to rotate between angular orientations from a face-to-face angular orientation to a back-to-back angular orientation. The mobile computing device further includes a camera mounted in the first part of the housing and configured to capture image data, the camera and the first display both facing a first direction, and a processor mounted in the housing. In the back-to-back angular orientation, the processor is configured to cause the second display to display the image data while simultaneously causing the first display to display the image data and secondary content.

Abstract: Motion and/or rotation of an input mechanism can be tracked and/or analyzed to determine limits on a user's range of motion and/or a user's range of rotation in three-dimensional space. The user's range of motion and/or the user's range of rotation in three-dimensional space may be limited by a personal restriction for the user (e.g., a broken arm). The user's range of motion and/or the user's range of rotation in three-dimensional space may additionally or alternatively be limited by an environmental restriction (e.g., a physical object in a room). Accordingly, the techniques described herein can take steps to accommodate the personal restriction and/or the environmental restriction thereby optimizing user interactions involving the input mechanism and a virtual object.

Abstract: A mobile computing device is provided that includes a processor, an accelerometer, and a housing with two parts, the first part including a first camera and a first display device, and the second part including a second camera and a second display device. When a predetermined trigger condition is satisfied, the processor is configured to cause the first and second display devices to each simultaneously display image data captured by the second camera, and image data received from a remote computing device.

Abstract: Techniques described herein dynamically adapt an amount of smoothing that is applied to signals of a device (e.g., positions and/or orientations of an input mechanism, positions and/or orientations of an output mechanism) based on a determined distance between an object and the device, or based on a determined distance between the object and another device (e.g., a head-mounted device). The object can comprise one of a virtual object presented on a display of the head-mounted device or a real-world object within a view of the user. The object can be considered a “target” object based on a determination that a user is focusing on, or targeting, the object. For example, the head-mounted device or other devices can sense data associated with an eye gaze of a user and can determine, based on the sensed data, that the user is looking at the target object.
