  • Publication number: 20230171370
    Abstract: In an embodiment, a computer-implemented method (100) is described. The method comprises identifying (102) a specified facial gesture from imaging data of a user. The method further comprises determining (104) whether the specified facial gesture is indicative of a specified zoom level to be used for displaying the user's face. In response to determining that the specified zoom level is to be used instead of a previously-determined zoom level used for displaying the user's face, a display showing a video feed of the user's face is caused to change a displayed size of at least a portion of the user's face on the video feed based on a difference between the specified zoom level and the previously-determined zoom level.

  • Patent number: 11154997
    Abstract: There is provided a method of providing feedback regarding motion of a rotary shaver performed by a user, the method comprising the steps of receiving, during at least one time interval, at least one motion type determined for the motion of the rotary shaver performed by the user, wherein the motion type is selected from a set of predefined motion types that comprises small rotational motion and one or more other predefined motion types; determining a degree of occurrence in the time interval of each of the motion types in the set of time interval; determining from the determined degree of occurrence of each of the motion types in the set of predefined motion types which motion type has a highest degree of occurrence in the time interval; and providing feedback to the user to increase a degree of occurrence of small rotational motion of the rotary shaver if the determined motion type having the highest degree of occurrence is one of the other predefined motion types.
