  • Patent number: 11704433
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide a computer system a computer program product, and a method that comprises identifying privacy data within received data by identifying markers that are indicative of privacy data within the received data; generating a respective classification of an object within the identified privacy data; assigning values to the generated respective classification of the object based on a perceived threat level associated with the identified privacy data; and in response to determining that the assigned value of the received data triggers an alert associated with a predetermined threshold for privacy, automatically preventing distribution of the received data from a computing device to another computing device.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 10958603
    Abstract: A computer-implemented method is presented for enabling instant and automatic photo sharing between computing devices. The method includes allowing a first user to operate a first computing device to create a plurality of images, the plurality of images including physical characteristics of a second user, transmitting a broadcast message to a plurality of second computing devices, determining whether a match occurs between the first computing device and one or more of the plurality of second computing devices, and establishing a local area network between the first computing device and matched second computing devices. The method further includes automatically and instantly transmitting the plurality of images to the matched second computing devices by priority and sequence determinations, and, upon completion of the transmittal of the plurality of images to the matched second computing devices, terminating the local area network.

  • Patent number: 10234660
    Abstract: An optical lens accessory used in conjunction with a terminal device equipped with two camera devices is provided, the optical lens accessory includes: an optical device including two fisheye lenses arranged in a back-to-back configuration, where directions of the two respective viewing angles associated with the two fisheye lenses are opposite to each other, and where viewing angle of each of the fisheye lenses is greater than 180° to allow each of the two fisheye lenses to independently frame a view in the respective direction of the respective viewing angle, to let the framed lights into the two camera devices; a housing device positioned outside the optical device, where the housing device is configured to support the optical device, and to isolate the framed lights from external stray light; and a fixture device configured to attach the optical lens accessory to the terminal device.

  • Publication number: 20180052308
    Abstract: An optical lens accessory for wide-angle photography is provided. The optical lens accessory includes: an optical device having a wide-angle lens. The optical device is configured to frame a view with a range of viewing angle greater than a range of viewing angle of the camera device and let framed light into the camera device; a housing device positioned outside the optical device and causing no interference to the range of viewing angle of the wide-angle lens, the housing device is configured to support the optical device, and to isolate the framed light from external stray light, thereby preventing the external stray light from interfering with an optical path of the framed light; and a fixture device configured to attach the optical lens accessory to the camera device of the terminal device while causing no interference to the range of viewing angle of the wide-angle lens.
