Patent number: 10372319Abstract: A method, apparatus and computer program product are provided for enabling scrubbing of a media file. Swiping gestures of varying speeds and directions may applied to a touch screen display such that a playhead indicating a selected frame of a media file moves at speeds relative to the swiping gesture, and in a direction of the swiping gesture. When the swiping gesture falls below a threshold speed, fine control in frame-by-frame increments is enabled. A user may therefore select a precisely desired frame for purposes such as playback and/or video editing, with a continuous swiping gesture and in as small as a space as provided by the touch screen display of a mobile device.Type: GrantFiled: November 13, 2014Date of Patent: August 6, 2019Assignee: HERE GLOBAL B.V.Inventors: Maarten Hammendorp, Charlie Sutton, Pascal Wever, Sebastian Frey

Patent number: 10209876Abstract: A method, apparatus and computer program product are provided to facilitate the identification of one or more media files within a gallery of media files presented upon a display. In the context of a method, a gallery of media files is caused to be displayed. The gallery of media file is grouped into a plurality of sessions. Each session includes one or more media files. The method also causes display of a scrollbar partitioned into a plurality of segments. Each segment corresponds to a respective session of media files. The method further includes determining the media files of the gallery to be displayed in response to user input selecting a respective segment of the scrollbar. In this regard, the method determines the media files of the gallery to be displayed by determining the media files of the session corresponding to the respective segment of the scrollbar that is selected.Type: GrantFiled: November 13, 2014Date of Patent: February 19, 2019Assignee: HERE Global B.V.Inventors: Steven Kish, Brody Larson, Nicole Ryan, Pascal Wever, Charlie Sutton, Oliver Farshi

Patent number: 9507445Abstract: A method, apparatus and computer program product are provided to facilitate the display of data in conjunction with an image. In the context of a method, an image is caused to be presented and input is received via a rotatable dial wheel while the image is presented. The method also includes determining data to be presented based upon the input. In this regard, the method modifies the data to be presented in response so the rotation of the dial wheel. Further, the method causes the data that is determined based on the input to be presented concurrent with the image.Type: GrantFiled: November 13, 2014Date of Patent: November 29, 2016Assignee: HERE Global B.V.Inventors: Charlie Sutton, Brody Larson, Sebastian Frey, Pascal Wever, David Vegezzi, Vidyut Samanta, Julian Bleecker, Simon James, Tom Arbisi, Jeremy Matters, Kevin Walker, Pawena Thimaporn, John-Rhys Newman, Duncan Burns, Markus Eklund

Patent number: 9413960Abstract: A method, apparatus and computer program product are provided so as to capture video images such that an image of a moment of significance is captured within the video. In the context of a method, an indication is received that a video capture user input will be subsequently provided directing that video images be captured. The method then determines whether a pre-roll is to be captured in advance of the video capture user input. The method causes the video images to be captured in response to the video capture user input. The video images include a start frame captured temporarily proximate receipt of the video capture user input. The method receives a video capture completion user input indicating that the capturing of the video images should be ceased. In response to receipt of the video capture completion user input, the method causes a post-roll to be captured.Type: GrantFiled: March 7, 2014Date of Patent: August 9, 2016Assignee: HERE Global B.VInventors: Maarten Hammendorp, Stephen Hartford, Pascal Wever, Andrew Gartrell

Patent number: 9262120Abstract: Techniques for providing a graphical user interface for an audio channel include receiving data that indicates multiple audio contents for audio presentation at a first node. A graphical user interface is formed, which displays a time sequence of the plurality of audio contents for presentation, and which associates with each audio content one or more selectable operations on the audio content. Presentation of the graphical user interface is caused at a second node. In response to causing presentation of the graphical user interface, data is received that indicates an associated operation on audio content based on input from the second node.Type: GrantFiled: September 11, 2009Date of Patent: February 16, 2016Assignee: Nokia Technologies OyInventors: Jan Chipchase, Pascal Wever, Nikolaj Bestle, Pawena Thimaporn, Thomas Arbisi, John-Rhys Newman, Andrew Gartrell, Simon James, Carrie Chan

Patent number: 9106820Abstract: Mechanisms are described for capturing video images using a multi-stage trigger button, where the effect of the trigger button is dependent on how a user interacts with the trigger button, such as during what timeframe the user releases the trigger button. For example, if the user ceases actuating the trigger button during a first time period following actuation, the capture of the video image is halted. If the user ceases actuating the trigger button during a second time period, the capture of the video image is continued. If the user ceases actuating the trigger button during a third time period, the capture of the video image is halted. Thus, for short actuations and long actuations, video images are only recorded while the trigger button is continued to be depressed. For video images in between, the video is continued to be recorded until a second actuation is received from the user.Type: GrantFiled: March 18, 2014Date of Patent: August 11, 2015Assignee: HERE Global B.V.Inventors: Maarten Hammendorp, Stephen Hartford, Pascal Wever, Andrew Gartrell
