Abstract: Various client devices include displays and one or more image capture devices configured to capture video data. Different users of an online system are associated with client devices that exchange information captured by their respective image capture devices. When exchanging information, presentation of content to users associated with different client device may be initially synchronized across the client devices. To synchronize content presentation, a client device initiating presentation of the content transmits a request identifying the content and an initial time to other client devices. The initial time is greater than a maximum return time or latency in a network coupling the client devices and the online system from a time when the request is transmitted. A client device determined to be out of synchronization with one or more other client devices receives a command to modify a rate at which the content is presented to reestablish synchronization.

Abstract: A client device receives a request to initiate a communication session with a particular user of a first plurality of users that are registered with the client device. The client device determines, using a sensor of the client device, a respective identity of each of a second plurality of users that are proximate to the client device. The client device determines whether an identity of the particular user matches the respective identity of any of the second plurality of users, and, in response to determining that the identity of the particular user matches the respective identity of any of the second plurality of users, the client device transmits the request to a device of the particular user.

Abstract: One example modular electronic device of the present disclosure includes a frame and a plurality of electronic modules which are respectively removably received at a plurality of bays formed by the frame. The modular electronic device can enable a user to directly operate, interact with, remove, or otherwise manipulate the electronic modules without requiring the user to navigate through or otherwise interact with a graphical user interface. In particular, the modular electronic device can enable the user to operate, remove, or otherwise interact with the electronic modules by simply touching or pressing a particular electronic module.

Abstract: Device health metrics may be collected and aggregated on a device before sending to a server for further aggregation. The method may include determining a crash has occurred on a device, and recording the crash and information corresponding to the crash in buffer storage on the device. The method may also include recording a crash type, a crash time, an identification of a component that caused the crash and a state of the device when the crash occurred. The method may also include grouping two or more crash events based on the crash type, generating device health metrics data including metadata corresponding to the two or more crash events, storing the device health metrics data in the buffer storage on the device, and sending the device health metrics data along with device identification information to a server for further aggregation.

Abstract: Disclosed are mobile communication devices, and methods for mobile communication devices including two video cameras that can operate simultaneously and in real-time. The device includes a first video camera pointing in a first direction and configured to generate a first video signal and a second video camera pointing in a second direction and configured to generate a second video signal. The device includes a processor configured to receive the first video signal and the second video signal and to encode the first video signal and the second video signal for simultaneous transmission. Disclosed is another device, including a housing having a fixed first video camera configured to point in a first direction with respect to the housing and generate a first video signal and a movable second video camera configured to point in a plurality of second directions with respect to the housing and generate a second video signal.

Abstract: A method (200) and an apparatus (400) for a wireless portable communication device (104) having a video telephony communication capability for responding to an incoming call are provide. The wireless portable communication device detects the incoming call and determines whether the incoming call is a video telephony call. If the incoming call is a video telephony call, then the wireless portable communication device configures itself for video telephony communication. Then upon receiving a single input signal, the wireless portable communication device activates required video functions and completes the incoming call.
