Abstract: Disclosed are systems, apparatuses, processes, and computer-readable media to capture images with subjects at different depths of fields. For instance, a method of processing image data includes obtaining a first image captured using an image sensor with a first exposure. The method may further include obtaining a second image captured using the image sensor with a second exposure. The method may include compressing the second image based on a comparison of the second image with the first image and storing the compressed second image in a memory. The method may further include obtaining the compressed second image from the memory and decompressing the compressed second image based on a difference between the compressed second image and the first image. The method may further include generating a combined image at least in part by combining the first image and the second image.

Abstract: A convertible head wearable audio device is provided that may include a headband having a first earpiece at a first end and a receptacle at a second end. The convertible head wearable audio device may also include a wireless interface. The wireless interface may be configured to communicatively couple the convertible head wearable audio device to a remote device. The convertible head wearable audio device may further include an active noise cancellation module. The active noise cancellation module may be configured to reduce ambient noise from an audio output of the convertible head wearable audio device.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for paying for an existing report are provided. In the method, an existing report for which a first structure of entities is identified is received. Thereafter, a set of other reports for which respective second structures of entities are identified is received. A weighting for other reports in the set of other reports is assigned, based on the respective structures. A payment for the existing report is extracted based on the weighting, a selected scoring rule, and the set of other reports.
