Abstract: A client device coupled to a makeup consultation device establishes a makeup consultation session with the makeup consultation device. The client device obtains a plurality of makeup snapshots from the makeup consultation device, the makeup snapshots each depicting a different makeup effect on a digital image of the user. A user interface is displayed to the user, the user interface comprising a grouping of preview windows, each of the preview windows depicting one of the plurality of makeup snapshots. The client device obtains a selection of one of the preview windows for resuming the makeup consultation and transmits the selection to the makeup consultation device, where the makeup professional resumes the makeup consultation based on the makeup snapshot depicted in the selected preview window.

Abstract: An image editing device is configured to automatically apply special effects to a digital image. In the image editing device, a digital image is obtained, and a selection is retrieved from a user, where the user selection specifying at least one criterion. At least one attribute of the digital image is analyzed, and a determination is made on whether the at least one attribute coincides with a target attribute associated with the at least one criterion. Responsive to the at least one attribute coinciding with the target attribute, a special effect is obtained from a data store, and the obtained special effect is applied to the digital image.

Abstract: A multimedia synchronization system used in a wireless local area network is provided. The multimedia synchronization system includes a first multimedia device and a second multimedia device. The first multimedia device wirelessly transmits a beacon, in which the beacon includes a timestamp. The second multimedia device is connected to the first multimedia device through the wireless local area network for receiving the beacon from the first multimedia device and synchronizing with the first multimedia device according to the timestamp of the beacon.

Abstract: A carrier for a flexible printed circuit (FPC) includes a number of latching members. The latching members secure the carrier to a printed circuit board (PCB).

Abstract: A wireless network system and a connecting method thereof are provided. The wireless network system includes a Wi-Fi apparatus and a communication apparatus. The Wi-Fi apparatus provides a Service Set Identifier (SSID). The SSID includes a first identifier value and a second identifier value, and the second identifier value is derived from the first identifier value by a hash function. After searching the SSID of the Wi-Fi apparatus, the communication apparatus determines that a value derived from the first identifier value of the SSID by the hash function is equal to the second identifier value, and then establishes a Wi-Fi authenticating connection with the Wi-Fi apparatus according to a connection password. The Wi-Fi apparatus establishes a data transmission connection with the communication apparatus after determining that the communication apparatus is legal according to the Wi-Fi authenticating connection.
