Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for stabilizing a stream of spherical images captured by an image capture device to produce a stabilized spherical video sequence. The rotation of the image capture device during capture may be corrected in one or more desired axial directions in a way that is agnostic to the translation of the image capture device. The rotation of the image capture device may also be corrected in one or more desired axial directions in a way that is aware of the translation of the image capture device. For example, the assembled output spherical video sequence may be corrected to maintain the horizon of the scene at a constant location, regardless of the translation of the image capture device (i.e., a ‘translation-agnostic’ correction), while simultaneously being corrected to maintain the yaw of the scene in the direction of the image capture device's translation through three-dimensional space (i.e., a ‘translation-aware’ correction).

Abstract: Some embodiments provide a method of processing images for a first camera and a second camera of a mobile device using a shared pipeline. A method receives a first set of images captured by the first camera of the mobile device. The method processes the first set of images using a first configuration of the shared pipeline. The method also receives a second set of images captured by the second camera of the mobile device, and processes the second set of images using a second configuration of the shared pipeline different from the first configuration.

Abstract: Some embodiments provide a method for allowing a first device that is in a video conference with a second mobile device to remotely control the second mobile device. The method sends images captured by a camera of the first device to the second device. The method receives images captured by a camera of the second device. The method sends a command through a communication channel of a real-time communication session to the second device. The command is for instructing the second device to perform an operation that modifies the images captured by the camera of the second device.

Abstract: A multi-functional garment system includes an outer shell garment (20), detachable inflatable insulation module (30), detachable heating module (40), detachable physiological parameter sensors (208,210), detachable communication module (150) and detachable control and display module (130), the control module including environmental parameter sensors. Modularity of these various functional units allows a user to easily configure the garment system as needed for various activities. The control module provides for storing parameter limits and responses to fault conditions which occur when a parameter exceeds the corresponding limit. Stored responses to fault conditions include controlling any of the functional modules thereby providing improved convenience, comfort and safety.
