    Abstract: One embodiment of the present invention sets forth a technique for intelligently accessing one or more different hardware-based mechanisms for cropping out, blurring or blocking private content in a live preview image generated for the camera and in media recorded by the camera. The technique incudes receiving input regarding a plurality of objects to be concealed in media captured by an imaging device and identifying at least one of the plurality of objects in a field of view of the imaging device. Further, the technique includes modifying the at least one of the plurality of objects in a live preview image or media captured by the imaging device using one or more hardware-based actuators, where the modifying the at least one of the plurality of objects causes the one of the plurality of objects to be concealed.
