Abstract:
Various client devices include displays and one or more image capture devices configured to capture video data. If a user is exchanging content with another user via a client device and is subsequently identified by a receiving client device via image data captured by an image capture device of the receiving client device, the client device transfers the exchanged content with the other user to the receiving client device. The receiving client device includes information identifying one or more other client devices authorized to transfer exchanged content to the receiving client device when the receiving client device receives a request from the client device. If multiple other client devices are within a threshold distance of the receiving client device, the other client devices transfer exchanged content to the receiving client device, which combines the content from different other client devices.
Abstract:
Techniques for enhancing group communication on a device are described. A method may include presenting a message in a message portion of a user interface (UI) for a group communication application executing on a first device, where the group communication application communicates messages among multiple devices. The method may further include monitoring an input component for the first device and detecting a first control directive from the input component. The first control directive may select a message displayed in the message portion of the user interface. The method may further include performing a pin operation on the selected message; and presenting the pinned message in a banner portion of the UI. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
Abstract:
In one embodiment, a method includes detecting one or more objects in an image, generating at least one mask for each of the detected objects, wherein each of the masks is defined by a perimeter, classifying the detected objects, receiving gesture input in relation to the image, determining whether one or more locations associated with the gesture input correlate with any of the masks, and providing feedback regarding the image in response to the gesture input. Each of the masks may include data identifying the corresponding detected object, and the perimeter of each mask may correspond to a perimeter of the corresponding detected object. The perimeter of the corresponding detected object may separate the detected object from one or more portions of the image that are distinct from the detected object.

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:
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. A user of a client device may provide a message to an additional user of an additional client device for asynchronous presentation to the additional user. The message includes information identifying the additional user and one or more privacy settings. When the additional client device identifies the user via captured video data, the online system determines whether the message has previously been presented to the additional user. Subject to the privacy settings included in the message, the additional client device presents the message to the additional user after detecting the additional user and determining the message has not previously been presented to the additional user.
