Patent number: 10732809Abstract: The present disclosure provides an image capture, curation, and editing system that includes a resource-efficient mobile image capture device that continuously captures images. The mobile image capture device is operable to input an image into at least one neural network and to receive at least one descriptor of the desirability of a scene depicted by the image as an output of the at least one neural network. The mobile image capture device is operable to determine, based at least in part on the at least one descriptor of the desirability of the scene of the image, whether to store a second copy of such image and/or one or more contemporaneously captured images in a non-volatile memory of the mobile image capture device or to discard a first copy of such image from a temporary image buffer without storing the second copy of such image in the non-volatile memory.Type: GrantFiled: March 6, 2018Date of Patent: August 4, 2020Assignee: Google LLCInventors: Iwona Bialynicka-Birula, Blaise Aguera-Arcas, Daniel Ramage, Hugh Brendan McMahan, Oliver Fritz Lange, Emily Anne Fortuna, Divya Tyamagundlu, Jess Holbrook, Kristine Kohlhepp, Juston Payne, Krzysztof Duleba, Benjamin Vanik, Alison Lentz, Jon Gabriel Clapper, Joshua Denali Lovejoy, Aaron Michael Donsbach

Patent number: 10686932Abstract: Apparatus and methods are disclosed for allowing smart phone users to “capture the moment” by allowing easy access to a camera application when a mobile device is in an above-lock (or locked) mode, while also preventing unauthorized access to other smart phone functionality. According to one embodiment of the disclosed technology, a method of operating a mobile device having an above-lock state and a below-lock state comprises receiving input data requesting invocation of an camera application when the mobile device is in the above-lock state and invoking the requested camera application on the device, where one or more functions of the requested application are unavailable as a result of the mobile device being in the above-lock state.Type: GrantFiled: November 18, 2016Date of Patent: June 16, 2020Assignee: Microsoft Technology Licensing, LLCInventors: Shamik Bandyopadhyay, Donald A. Barnett, Vikram Kapoor, Veronica Y. Law, Kathryn C. Lemson, Tirthankar Sengupta, Divya Tyamagundlu, Ahmad Bilal

Publication number: 20130007667Abstract: A menu structure is provided which allows a user of a computing device to more easily consolidate and navigate images and/or albums regardless of their location. Moreover, the menu structure is dynamically tailored to individual users based on their previous interactions with the people appearing in the images/albums. The menu includes icons representing images (e.g., photos) or collections of images that have been categorized based in part on metadata respectively associated with the images. The metadata may have been provided by tagging the images or posting the images on one or more social networking sites. The order in which the icons are presented on the menu or interface may be based on their relative relevance or importance to the user.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 28, 2011Publication date: January 3, 2013Applicant: MICROSOFT CORPORATIONInventors: Aaron Sauve, Jannes Paul Peters, Marc David McClure, Kathryn Lemson, Divya Tyamagundlu, Ian Middleton, Sushil Kumar, Peter Bohac, Aravind Narayanan Manimandiram, Gary Daniels, Jonathan Gass
