Abstract:
Various systems and methods for capturing media moments are described herein. An autonomous camera system for capturing media moments includes a configuration module to receive configuration parameters; a flight control module to autonomously maneuver the autonomous camera system over a crowd of people; a search module to search for a subject in the crowd of people based on the configuration parameters; and a control module to perform an action when the subject is found in the crowd of people.
Abstract:
A mechanism is described for facilitating dynamic detection and intelligent use of segmentation on flexible display screens according to one embodiment. A method of embodiments, as described herein, includes detecting, via one or more touch sensors, alterations in current in and around one or more areas of a flexible display screen, where the alterations represent pressure being applied to cause at least one of bending, rolling, and curving of the flexible display screen at the one or more areas. The method may further include dividing the flexible display screen into a plurality of zones corresponding to the one or more areas, where the marking/dividing logic is further to mark a plurality of portions of the plurality of zones to serve as a plurality of segments. The method may further include facilitating displaying of contents via the plurality of segments of the flexible display screen.
Abstract:
A smart fabric may include a smart material such as an Electroactive Polymer (EAP). An adaptive garment formed from the smart fabric may change textile density based on user needs, sensor states, context, and other inputs. In various embodiments, the EAP enables the adaptive garment to change textile density based on a sport or activity, based on calendar or scheduled events, or based on user preferences. In various embodiments, these smart fabrics may be implemented in sporting garments, uniforms, multiple-day clothing (e.g., for travel or military usage), furniture fabric, curtains, or other implementations.
Abstract:
Various systems and methods for using a user gesture to display content on a display are described herein. An apparatus comprises a media module, a gesture module, an angle module, a streaming module, and a network device. The media module displays media content on a display of a computing device; the gesture module detects a gesture control on the computing device; the angle module calculates an angle of the gesture control with respect a reference direction; the streaming module selects a display from a plurality of displays based on the calculated angle; and the network device transmits the media content to the selected display.
Abstract:
Various systems and methods for providing contextual information to a user while the user is wearing headphones are described herein. A system for providing contextual information while wearing headphones comprises an event detector module to detect an event external and proximate to a user device, the user device communicatively coupled to headphones worn by a user, the headphones producing sound at a first volume; a notification decision module to determine whether to notify the user of the event; and a notification module to notify the user of the event based on the determination.
Abstract:
Disclosed herein are systems and methods for selectively disabling operation of hardware components based on network changes. In some embodiments, the hardware component may cause a platform to perform network discovery to receive first network discovery data, cause the platform to perform network discovery to receive second network discovery data, determine that the differences between the first and second data exceed a network change threshold, and in response to the determination, cause disablement of operation of one or more functions of the hardware component. Other embodiments may be disclosed and/or claimed.
Abstract:
Systems, apparatus, and methods to determine relationships, group memberships, and social networks and circles automatically through an analysis of media content, such as photos or videos, and ascertaining the connections between individuals or groups. Embodiments include identifying individuals in photos with or without other people in different situations, and developing a context based on objects in the photo. The extracted context may be stored in a predefined ontology structure in a database and analyzed to determine relationships or group memberships. A database of automatically determined relationships may be analyzed in order to provide relationship recommendations, social advice, or to sup port law enforcement investigations. The database may be continuously updated with additional information provided by individuals or obtained through a secondary socal network that includes user media or social information.
