Abstract:
Embodiments of the invention are directed toward a multifunction wristband (or other wearable device) providing a lifestyle display that outwardly displays to other people the interests and social connections of the wearer, which can include data related to music, social media, charities, and more. The multifunction wristband can act either as a stand-alone device or as a companion device to another personal electronic device. Furthermore, it can incorporate a variety of additional useful features.
Abstract:
Described herein are methods and devices employing low power wireless features to identify persons in a captured image using signals emitted from such persons' personal computing devices. As described, signals emitted from personal computing devices commonly carried on a person, such as cell phones, enable an image capture device to wirelessly connect to the personal computing devices, both directly and through a mesh network, and to obtain information about the person carrying the device. Further, the image capture device may determine the location of the personal computing devices to tag locations of persons in a captured image. Some embodiments may allow the image capture device to automatically share the captured image, such as by email, text, or social networking websites and applications. It is also possible to create a local group of users who will be identified by the image capture device, or to operate in a publicly detectable mode.
