Patent number: 12154280Abstract: A media items to be shared with users of a content sharing service are identified. Each of the media items corresponds to a video recording generated by a client device that depicts one or more objects corresponding to a real-world event and/or a geographic location. A location of the client device that generated the video recording corresponding to a respective media item of the media items is determined based on image features depicted in a set of frames of the video recording. A request for content associated with at least one of the real-world event and/or the geographic location is received from another client device connected to the content sharing service. The media items and, for each of the media items, an indication of the location of the client device that generated the corresponding video recording are provided in accordance with the request for content.Type: GrantFiled: April 24, 2023Date of Patent: November 26, 2024Assignee: Google LLCInventors: Joan Lasenby, Stuart Bennett, Sasi Inguva, Damien Kelly, Andrew Crawford, Hugh Denman, Anil Kokaram

Patent number: 11042991Abstract: The technology disclosed herein includes a method for determining the position of multiple cameras relative to each other. In one example, the method may include: receiving, by a processor, a first video recording of a first camera and a second video recording of a second camera; selecting a set of frames of the first video recording; determining a blurriness measure for multiple frames of the set; identifying feature points in multiple frames of the set; selecting a frame from the set of frames based on the blurriness measure and the identified feature points; and determining a position of a first camera relative to a second camera by comparing the selected frame with a frame of the second video recording.Type: GrantFiled: October 2, 2018Date of Patent: June 22, 2021Assignee: Google LLCInventors: Joan Lasenby, Stuart Bennett, Sasi Inguva, Damien Kelly, Andrew Crawford, Hugh Denman, Anil Kokaram

Patent number: 8340661Abstract: Embodiments of techniques for low-cost multimode operation in wireless communications involving the Time Division Synchronous Code Division Multiple Access (TD-SCDMA) standard and the Global System for Mobile telecommunications (GSM) standard are described. In one aspect, a method of multimode operation in a mobile telecommunication device renders wireless communications based on the TD-SCDMA standard using either or both of first and second frequency synthesizers of the mobile telecommunication device. The method also receives signals based on the GSM standard using either or both of the first and second frequency synthesizers of the mobile telecommunication device. Techniques for performing baton handover as well as signal reception for multimedia broadcast and multicast services (MBMS) using two frequency synthesizers are also provided.Type: GrantFiled: July 2, 2010Date of Patent: December 25, 2012Assignee: MStar Semiconductor, Inc.Inventors: Francesc Boixadera, Eric K.
