Abstract: According to one or more embodiments of the present disclosure, a method of linking images may include analyzing metadata of a plurality of image files each associated with an image of a plurality of images. The method may also include determining that the plurality of images are associated with the same event based on the analysis of the metadata. In addition, the method may include linking the plurality of images based on the determination that the plurality of images are associated with the same event.

Abstract: According to one or more embodiments of the present disclosure, a method may include receiving, from a first wireless device, a wireless beacon signal that corresponds to an event. The method may further include communicating, by a second wireless device, an indication of participation in image sharing with respect to the event in response to receiving the wireless beacon signal. Additionally, the method may include receiving, by the second wireless device, one or more image files that correspond to one or more images captured during the event based on the indication of participation in the image sharing.

Abstract: Embodiments described herein include systems and methods for automatically creating compilation videos from an original video based on metadata associated with the original video. For example, a method for creating a compilation video may include determining a relevance score for video frames in an original video; selecting a plurality of relevant video frames from the original video based on the relevance score; selecting a plurality of video clips from the original video based on the relevance scores of the video frames; and creating a compilation video from the plurality of video clips. Each of the plurality of video clips, for example, may include at least one relevant video frame from the plurality of relevant video frames.

Abstract: A modular camera expansion system for a modular camera capable of capturing digital video, audio, and photograph data, the modular camera expansion system comprising a processor, a connecting means configured to electrically and mechanically connect the processor to a processor of the modular camera, a user interface connected to the processor which is capable of initiating a process in the processor of the modular camera when the modular camera is connected to the modular camera housing, and a housing which houses the processor, connecting means and user interface, the modular camera expansion system being configured to couple with the modular camera to form an assembled camera whereby the user interface of the modular camera expansion system is used to operate the modular camera.

Abstract: A method of controlling a modular camera using an external device, the method comprising receiving a command to capture a digital video and/or a digital image from the external device via a wireless communication, capturing the digital video and/or the digital image according to the command from the external device, storing the digital video and/or the digital image in a memory, receiving a command to transfer the digital video and/or the digital image to the external device via the wireless communication, and transferring the digital video and/or the digital image to the external device via the wireless communication.

Abstract: A modular camera comprising a camera capable of capturing digital video, audio, and photograph data, a processor capable of controlling the controller to initiate the capture of digital video, audio, or photograph data and receive the captured digital video, audio, or photograph data and transferring the captured digital video, audio, and photograph data to an external computing device, a memory for storing captured digital video, audio, or photograph data, an electrical connection connected to the processor, and a housing which houses the camera, processor, and the electrical connection, wherein the housing is configured to couple with a plurality of external camera modules, each of which encloses at least a portion of the housing and which includes a housing electrical connection which connects electrically to the electrical connection of the modular camera.

Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed to provide video data structures that include one or more tracks that comprise different types of metadata. The metadata, for example, may include data representing various environmental conditions such as location, positioning, motion, speed, acceleration, etc. The metadata, for example, may also include data representing various video or audio tags such as people tags, audio tags, motion tags, etc. Some or all of the metadata, for example, may be recorded in conjunction with a specific video frame of a video clip. Some or all of the metadata, for example, may be recorded in a continuous fashion and/or may be recorded in conjunction with one or more of a plurality of specific video frames.

Abstract: A camera system is disclosed according to some embodiments described herein that may include a motion sensor 135, an image sensor, a user interface, a memory, and a processor communicatively coupled with at least the motion sensor 135 and the user interface. The processor may be configured to enter a hibernate state; receive motion data from the motion sensor 135; determine whether the motion data indicates motion of the camera system; in the event motion is determined from the motion data, entering a sleep state; receive a user input from the user interface while in the sleep state; and entering an active state such that an image sensor of the camera system is powered on and is actively sampling images.

Abstract: A method of integrating a device with a storage network may include generating metadata associated with image files generated by a camera of a device. The method may further include automatically transferring to a storage network the image files and the metadata based a status of the device. The status of the device may include on one or more of power consumption associated with transferring the image files and metadata, battery status of a battery of the device, available storage space on the device, available connectivity paths with the storage network, and a power supply mode of the device.

Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed to rotate an image recorded by an image sensor to compensate for angular rotation or tilt of the image sensor. For example, a camera can include an image sensor having a plurality of pixels arranged in an array, an accelerometer, a memory, and a processing unit. The processing unit can be configured to read a first plurality of pixels corresponding to an imaging area of the image sensor. The processing unit can also be configured to receive an acceleration value from the accelerometer, and determine an tilt angle value from the acceleration value that represents at least in part the tilt of the image sensor relative to the Earth's gravitational field or the horizon. The processing unit may also be configured to rotate at least a subset of the first plurality of image pixels of the image sensor based on the tilt angle value.

Abstract: A system for use in presenting media content includes a media server configured to provide media content and a media client configured to obtain the media content from the media server and to present the media content on a device. The media client is configured to generate a first code and to transmit information to the media server. The information identifies the media client and the information indicates that the media client is available for pairing. The media server is configured to reply to the information with a second code that corresponds to the first code in order to enable pairing between the media server and the media client.
