Abstract: A method of managing crops using an electronic device having an interface. Inputs of crop data is received, and each of the crop data is associated with a sample site location corresponding to each of a plurality of images captured by an image capturing device. A graph plotting one or more types of crop data including data associated with the plurality of images is generated in a first display region of the interface. A subset of sample site locations requiring one of a predetermined set of actions is displayed on the map in a second display region of the interface based on a selection within one of the plots on the graph.

Abstract: A method of browsing images on a user interface displaying a map. A selection of a geographical feature within the map on the user interface is received based on a selection criteria comprising a set of predefined gesture rules. A plurality of images is selected based on a proximity of each of the images to the selected geographical feature. A dynamic browsing widget is generated on the user interface having dimensions proportional to dimensions of the selected geographical feature. The selected plurality of images is browsed using the generated dynamic browsing widget.

Abstract: A method of selecting items in a graphical user interface displayed on a screen. A selection of at least one item in the graphical user interface is detected, the at least one item being located in a bounded region of the graphical user interface, the bounded region having an abutting region. In the abutting region, a selection deadband representing a distance from a boundary between the bounded region and the abutting region is set, the selection deadband having a thickness determined according to proximity of another boundary of the abutting region. Selection of an item located in the abutting region is disabled until a selector is traversed past the selection deadband and into the abutting region.

Abstract: A system and head-mounted device modify display of augmented reality content during an interaction between a person and a user of a mixed reality system. The method comprises detecting an interaction between a person and a user of a mixed reality system, the mixed reality system displaying the augmented reality content to the user, the interaction being detectable by the mixed reality system when a gaze interaction of the person is detected as directed towards the user and accordingly a sensor of the mixed reality system; determining an urgency of the interaction according to further interaction between the person and the user; determining that an element of the display of the augmented reality content is obscuring the interaction; selecting a transition effect for modifying display of the element from a plurality of transition effects according to the determined urgency of the interaction, and modifying the display of the element according to the selected transition effect.

Abstract: A method of providing a print representation of a document which, when printed, has at least one region the appearance of which is dependent on viewing conditions. The method comprises generating a representation of the document and then modifying the appearance of the at least one region to thereby simulate the appearance of the document when printed. This is achieved by animating the representation of the at least one region or at least partially combining the at least one region with an image.

Abstract: Disclosed is a method for displaying a plurality of objects on a display (105). Each object has at least a first attribute and a second attribute. The method sets a range of first attributes to be displayed. A set of objects is then displayed having the same second attribute on a radial line of an ellipse based on a comparison between the range and the first attribute of the objects. Desirably the method is used for displaying information regarding a plurality of broadcast programs on the display, each broadcast program having attributes comprising at least time of transmission and channel of transmission. In that implementation a display period is set. The method then compares the time of broadcast transmission of one or more programs with the display period and then displays (eg. 600) information regarding a set of programs (602, 604, 606) having the same channel of transmission (eg. 12) on at least one radial line of an ellipse, based on the comparison.

Abstract: Disclosed are a method and system for automated classification of a digital image. The method analyzes the image for the presence of a human face. A determination is then made regarding the size of the located face compared to the size of the image to classify the image based on the relative size of the face. Alternatively, the position of the face within the image can be used to determine the classification. With a classified image, particularly forming part of a sequence of classified images, editing of the sequence may be performed dependent upon the classification to achieve a desired aesthetic effect. The editing may be performed with the aid of an editing template.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for processing media items is disclosed. The method involves selecting a sub-set (106) of the media items (102), and concurrently displaying a spatial representation (606) and a temporal representation (610) of the selected sub-set. Using this starting point, a user can browse, using either a temporal control input (414) or a spatial control input (406), applied to the associated temporal or spatial display (610, 606 respectively), to modify the media item selection (106). The display corresponding to the non-selected navigation mode is automatically and contemporaneously changed to reflect the change in the media item selection.

Abstract: A method of animating a sprite in a video production comprising a plurality of sequential video frames is disclosed. The method comprises the steps of selecting (2004) a feature, with which the sprite is to be juxtaposed, in one of said video frames, applying (2006) a feature tracking process to the video production to thereby output (2008), for a series of said plurality of video frames containing the feature, a temporal-spatial record for the feature across the plurality of video frames, and compositing (2010), with the series of said plurality of video frames, a corresponding series of instantiations of the sprite dependent upon the temporal-spatial record.

Abstract: A method of editing a video sequence comprising a series of clips, in which each clip is formed by video content captured between two points in time. Duration data associated with the duration of each clip is extracted from the sequence. The duration data is processed according to at least one predetermined template of editing rules to form editing instruction data, the template indicating a plurality of predetermined edited segment durations, and the editing instruction data being configured to form output edited segments from the clips The clip is then processed (edited) according to the editing instruction data to form an output edited sequence of output edited segments. Each of the output edited segments has a duration corresponding to one of the predetermined edited segment durations with at least a portion of the clip being discarded by the processing of the clip.
