One example method includes the steps of receiving a video that includes a sequence of images, detecting at least one object of interest (e.g., a face), locating feature reference points of the at least one object of interest, aligning a virtual face mesh to the at least one object of interest based on the feature reference points, finding over the sequence of images at least one deformation of the virtual face mesh that reflect face mimics, determining that the at least one deformation refers to a facial emotion selected from a plurality of reference facial emotions, and generating a communication bearing data associated with the facial emotion.

Abstract: Methods and systems for real-time video processing can be used in video conferencing to modify image quality of background. One example method includes the steps of receiving a video including a sequence of images, identifying at least one object of interest (e.g., a face) in one or more of the images, detecting feature reference points of the at least one object of interest, and tracking the at least one object of interest in the video. The tracking may comprise aligning a virtual face mesh to the at least one object of interest in one or more of the images. Further, a background is identified in the images by separating the at least one object of interest from each image based on the virtual face mesh. The background is then modified in each of the images by blurring, changing a resolution, colors, or other parameters.

Abstract: Systems, devices, and methods are presented for segmenting an image of a video stream with a client device by receiving one or more images depicting an object of interest and determining pixels within the one or more images corresponding to the object of interest. The systems, devices, and methods identify a position of a portion of the object of interest and determine a direction for the portion of the object of interest. Based on the direction of the portion of the object of interest, a histogram threshold is dynamically modified for identifying pixels as corresponding to the portion of the object of interest. The portion of the object of interest is replaced with a graphical interface element aligned with the direction of the portion of the object of interest.

Abstract: A context based augmented reality system can be used to display augmented reality elements over a live video feed on a client device. The augmented reality elements can be selected based on a number of context inputs generated by the client device. The context inputs can include location data of the client device and location data of nearby physical places that have preconfigured augmented elements. The preconfigured augmented elements can be preconfigured to exhibit a design scheme of the corresponding physical place.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus, including computer program products, related to extensibility of pattern components in a visual modeling language environment. A pattern component may implement an interface, the pattern component may be received (e.g., by a compiler), and a determination may be made as to whether components of the interface are implemented by the pattern component. If so, a reference to the interface is bound to the pattern component (e.g., a function call referencing a function signature of an interface may be substituted with a call to a function having the same name of the pattern component). A role may be assigned to a pattern component of a visual modeling environment of an application development system and a behavior may be performed based on the role assigned to the pattern component.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus, including computer program products, for developing user interface applications using configurable patterns and for executing such pattern-based applications. The applications can be developed by generating a graphic representation of a pattern, which can include multiple pattern elements having prearranged user interface elements. The pattern can specify predefined actions that can be performed using the user interface elements, and the graphic representation can include graphic objects corresponding to the pattern elements. Application development can further include receiving user input identifying a selected graphic object and modifying the graphic representation to display information regarding the pattern element corresponding to the selected graphic object.
