Abstract: An apparatus includes a transceiver circuit and a first controller circuit. The transceiver circuit may be configured to receive an uplink channel and transmit a downlink channel. The first controller circuit configured to (i) control operation of an unmanned aerial vehicle and a camera in response to commands received via the uplink channel, (ii) capture video data from the camera, (iii) generate a first encoded video stream having a first resolution and a second encoded video stream having a second resolution, (iv) store the first encoded video stream with time stamp information on a storage medium, (v) transmit the second encoded video stream and the time stamp information via the downlink channel, (vi) receive encoded audio information associated with previously transmitted time stamp information via the uplink channel, and (vii) combine the encoded audio information with the first encoded video stream stored on the storage medium using the associated time stamp information.

Abstract: An apparatus comprising an interface to a sensor and a processor. The sensor may be configured to generate a video signal having a first field of view based on a targeted view from a vehicle. The processor may be configured to (A) receive the video signal from the interface, (B) generate a second field of view from the video signal based on (i) the first field of view, (ii) a shape of a display and (iii) an input and (C) present the second field of view from the video signal to the display. The second field of view is a cropped version of the first field of view. The second field of view is generated by adjusting video data in the first field of view. Portions of the first field of view not in the second field of view are hidden portions of the video signal.

Abstract: An apparatus comprising a sensor and a processor. The sensor may be configured to capture video frames of an environment near a vehicle. The processor may be configured to (i) receive the video frames from the sensor, (ii) perform video analytics on the video frames and (iii) generate a control signal in response to the video analytics. The video analytics may analyze visual content in the video frames to identify an object approaching the vehicle. The video analytics may determine an expected path of the object approaching the vehicle. The control signal may be configured to generate a warning for the object approaching the vehicle if the expected path poses a collision hazard with the vehicle.

Abstract: An apparatus comprising a first sensor, a second sensor and a processor. The first sensor may be configured to generate a first video signal based on a targeted view from a vehicle. The second sensor may be configured to generate a second video signal based on a targeted view of a driver. The processor may be configured to (A) receive the first video signal, (B) receive the second video signal, (C) determine a field of view to present to the driver, (D) generate a third video signal and (E) present the third video signal to a display showing the field of view. The field of view is determined based on (i) a body position of the driver extracted from the second video signal and (ii) the first video signal.

Abstract: An apparatus comprising a camera, a microphone, a speaker and a processor. The camera may be mounted to a first portion of a pair of eyeglasses. The microphone may be mounted to a second portion of the pair of eyeglasses. The speaker may be mounted to the pair of eyeglasses. The processor may be electronically connected to the camera, the microphone and the speaker. The processor may be configured to (i) associate a visual display of the movement of the lips of a target received from the camera with an audio portion of the target received from the microphone, (ii) filter sounds not related to the target, and (iii) play sounds not filtered through the speaker.

Abstract: An apparatus comprising a sensor, a motion detector, a memory and a processor. The sensor may be configured to capture a first image. The motion detector may be configured to initiate the capture of the first image. The memory may be configured to store exposure data associated with the first image. The processor may be configured to determine if the stored exposure data is usable to capture a second image.
