  • Patent number: 11159763
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides an image capture, curation, and editing system that includes a resource-efficient mobile image capture device that continuously captures images. In particular, the present disclosure provides low power frameworks for controlling image sensor mode in a mobile image capture device. On example low power frame work includes a scene analyzer that analyzes a scene depicted by a first image and, based at least in part on such analysis, causes an image sensor control signal to be provided to an image sensor to adjust at least one of the frame rate and the resolution of the image sensor.

  • Patent number: 10732809
    Abstract: 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.

  • Publication number: 20140372923
    Abstract: High performance touch drag and drop are described. In embodiments, a multi-threaded architecture is implemented to include at least a manipulation thread and an independent hit test thread. The manipulation thread is configured to receive one or more messages associated with an input and send data associated with the messages to the independent hit test thread. The independent hit test thread is configured to perform an independent hit test to determine whether the input hit an element that is eligible for a particular action, and identify an interaction model associated with the input. The independent hit test thread also sends an indication of the interaction model to the manipulation thread to enable the manipulation thread to detect whether the particular action is triggered.

  • Publication number: 20140359475
    Abstract: The techniques and systems described herein present various examples of a settings analytics component which provides for different ways to create a customized control settings panel for a user to modify system or application control settings. For example, in an environment where a user of a computing device with an operating system allows user configuration of system control settings, the settings analytics component may track and store user behaviors in regard to the modification of system control settings. The settings analytics component may then base the creation of a customized control settings panel on the tracked and stored user behaviors in regard to the modification of system control settings.

  • Publication number: 20140298258
    Abstract: A graphical user interface for viewing and selecting from a list of available applications through an operating system of a computer includes a switch list. The displayed switch list can be either fully or partially displayed, or hidden. The switch list becomes partially displayed after a user selects an object from the switch list through some user input gesture, such as a swipe from the left edge of the display when the switch list is hidden, or a selection and drag of an object from a fully displayed switch list. The switch list transitions from partially displayed or hidden to fully displayed when a user indicates, through some user gesture, that a currently active object is being placed back into the switch list.
