  • Systems and methods for capturing content
    Patent number: 10404906
    Abstract: Systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable media can determine a first faceplate installed in the computing device, the first faceplate being an attachment that is capable of being physically installed in the computing device. A faceplate profile associated with the first faceplate can be determined. At least one setting of the computing device or operation performed by the computing device can be modified based at least in part on information specified by the faceplate profile associated with the first faceplate.

  • SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR PROVIDING DEVICE-BASED FEEDBACK
    Publication number: 20190190970
    Abstract: Systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable media can determine content that was captured and provided by a camera device. At least one event that occurred in a social networking system in response to the content can be determined. One or more instructions can be provided to the camera device for illuminating one or more light sources associated with the camera device. The one or more light sources can be illuminated based at least in part on a pre-defined illumination pattern that visually communicates occurrence of the event.
