Abstract: A small wearable recall device is provided to capture images triggered by a combination of a detection of a capture condition (e.g., changes in motion, temperature or light level) followed by a relatively stable period, as detected by an accelerometer. By triggering on the combination of a detected capture condition followed by a detected stability condition, a clearer image of the environment of an interesting event is expected to be captured. The small size of the recall device makes it possible to integrate it into common portable consumer products, such as MP3 players, purses, clothing, hats, backpacks, necklaces, collars, and other human-wearable products.

Abstract: Calibration of gaze tracking equipment is described, for example, in a desktop computing scenario. In various examples, an explicit calibration phase is carried out, optionally followed by an implicit calibration phase. In examples, the explicit calibration phase comprises requesting and receiving user manual input events associated with specified locations and measuring gaze associated with the manual input events. In examples, the implicit calibration phase is carried out without disturbing other activity of a user in the desktop computing environment, such as operating a graphical user interface. In various examples calibration data is stored in a plurality of buffers and used to control switching between explicit and implicit calibration phases.
