  • Publication number: 20160142745
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a system and method for adjusting bit rate streaming during live video recording while traveling in a moving vehicle on public right-of-ways. The embodiments of the present invention relates to a system and method for gathering and analyzing dynamically and continuously cellular strength and bit loss while traveling from point A to point B. The result of the predictive bit rate is to adjust the video streaming throughput to best match the predictive bit rate and maximize the quality of the video stream.

  • Publication number: 20160098816
    Abstract: The present invention provides a number of advantageous modifications and improvements in wearable computing devices to optimize or at least more fully utilize the potential applications of such devices. These modifications include transforming the view of a second observer to be able to view what a first observer at a different location is viewing, allowing the second observer or a remote administrator to control the zoom on the device of a first observer, providing a pointer on the device of the first observer to assist in framing or viewing an object; and controlling the device to avoid overheating or to avoid transmitting redundant or hijacked information.

  • Publication number: 20150244969
    Abstract: The various embodiments of the present invention relate to a system and method for gathering and analyzing data from a plurality of users at a specific event or a location with recording devices, which is executed real-time, wherein the plurality of users are aiming their image capture devices at a specific object at the event or the location, and subsequently creating a line of sight to an object of interest, thereby forming a cluster density of plurality of users, and sharing all the intersecting videos or metadata with the users in the same formed cluster. The plurality of image users are communicated from the plurality of image-capture devices to a remote server for subsequent statistical analysis of the proportionate amount of users focusing their devices on each target object at the specific event or the location.
