Abstract: Methods, apparatuses, and computer-readable medium are disclosed for real time synchronization of data between a presenter and multiple devices being operated by remote third party users. The specialized processors disclosed herein are directed to receiving additional information generated by third party remote users and transmitting the same information with other party users and with the original presenter by having the additional information transmitted to a flat screen via a projector.

Abstract: An apparatus and method for secure image storage including storing, in a memory of an image capture device, a first region accessible only to an authenticated user and a second region accessible to a non-authenticated user, storing, in the memory of the image capture device, a variable having a first state and a second state, capturing, by a camera of the image capture device, an image, and storing, by the controller of the image capture device, the captured image in the memory, the controller being configured to store the captured image in the first region when the variable is in the first state during image capture and store the captured image in the second region when the variable is in the second state during image capture.
