Disclosed are a method and device for determining an icon position. The method includes: detecting a target object in a target image and determining the reference position of the target object in the target image, and detecting a salient position in the target image, thereby obtaining the reference position of a key target or object in the target image, and a salient position possibly requiring more attention in the target image; and selecting, according to the distance between the reference position or salient position and preset candidate positions, an icon position from the candidate positions.

A method for sharing content on an instant messaging application operating in a user terminal including determining whether content-to-be-shared for a chat room associated with a user account of the instant messaging application exists, outputting a share recommendation message for the user account through the chat room in response to a result of the determining indicating that the content-to-be-shared exists, receiving a response to the share recommendation message from the user account, and outputting the content-to-be-shared for the chat room based on the received response to the share recommendation message may be provided.

A system and method for displaying elevated, polarized views of water bodies are provided. The system and method of the present disclosure are generally designed to obtain images from a vantage point located at a first location and subsequently transmit and display the same to an individual located at a second location. To this end, the system and method of the present disclosure may comprise a camera, a mounting device, and a display operably connected to the camera. The mounting device may be used to attach the camera in an elevated position on a boat to enable the camera to capture video images of the body of water surrounding the boat. To reduce glare on the body of water, the camera may have a polarized filter. Video images captured by the camera are transmitted to the display for display thereon in real time.

Described herein are systems and methods for dynamically adjusting an aspect ratio of a video. Exemplary methods can include receiving (i) a video having an original aspect ratio and at least one user interface (UI) element configured to be selected by a user of the video and (ii) an aspect ratio of a display screen for presenting the video. The methods can include automatically determining a display area of the video to be presented based on (i) the default position of the at least one UI element in the video, (ii) an active area in the video, and/or (iii) a central area in the video, the display area having an aspect ratio equal to the aspect ratio of the display screen; and presenting the video display area in the display screen with the at least one UI element for at least the portion of the video.

An electronic device may have a housing. The housing may be characterized by a vertical axis and may have housing structures such as cylindrical housing structures with a cylindrical surface. A speaker may be mounted in the housing to provide sound through openings in the housing structures. A visual output device may be mounted in the housing to provide light through openings in the housing structures. The visual output device may include an electrophoretic display, a light-emitting diode display, or other display with an array of pixels that display images or may include other components for emitting light. During operation, voice commands may be received by a microphone in the device and action taken based on the commands and other information. The action taken may include playing sound with the speaker and providing visual output with the visual output device.

Aspects of the subject disclosure may include, for example, receiving content that includes a 360-degree video, determining that guidance is enabled with respect to the content, obtaining an input responsive to determining that the guidance is enabled, and obtaining the guidance with respect to a playback of the content, where the obtained guidance is based on the input. Other embodiments are disclosed.
