    Abstract: Apparatuses, systems and methods for wearable devices such as eyewear are described. According to one embodiment, the wearable device includes a body, electronics, and a connector. The body is configured to hold one or more optical elements, the body being disposable between a collapsed condition and a wearable condition in which the device is wearable by a user to hold the one or more optical elements within user view. The electronics are carried by the body. The connector is configured to enable establishment of an electrical and/or electronic connection with the electronics via the connector, the connector being housed by the body such that the connector is substantially obscured from view when the body is in the wearable condition, and such that the connector is exposed for connective access when the body is in the collapsed condition.

    Abstract: A wearable or a mobile device includes a camera to capture an image of a scene with an unknown object. Execution of programming by a processor configures the device to perform functions, including a function to capture, via the camera, the image of the scene with the unknown object. To create lightweight human-machine user interactions, execution of programming by the processor further configures the device to determine a recognized object-based adjustment; and produce visible output to the user via the graphical user interface presented on the image display of the device based on the recognized object-based adjustment. Examples of recognized object-based adjustments include launch, hide, or display of an application for the user to interact with or utilize; display of a menu of applications related to the recognized object for execution; or enable or disable of a system level feature.

    Abstract: Augmented reality experiences of a user wearing an electronic eyewear device are captured by at least one camera on a frame of the electronic eyewear device, the at least one camera having a field of view that is larger than a field of view of a display of the electronic eyewear device. An augmented reality feature or object is applied to the captured scene. A photo or video of the augmented reality scene is captured and a first portion of the captured photo or video is displayed in the display. The display is adjusted to display a second portion of the captured photo or video with the augmented reality features as the user moves the user's head to view the second portion of the captured photo or video. The captured photo or video may be transferred to another device for viewing the larger field of view augmented reality image.

    Abstract: Systems, devices, media, and methods are presented for detecting and interpreting motion of a device and a remote object to control operations of the device. The systems and methods identify a sensor input within a drone. The sensor input indicates movement of the drone within a three dimensional space. The systems and methods determine one or more movement attributes from the sensor input and, in response to the one or more movement attributes, selects one or more maneuvers corresponding to at least one movement attribute. The system and methods then execute the one or more maneuvers by controlling one or more drone control components to move the drone within the three dimensional space.
