A device for documenting and encrypting a face to face personal meeting that includes a casing, a connecting unit that can communicate with external data storage device, a camera or microphone, an encryption subsystem, a decryption subsystem, and a personal key reader that is capable to identify personal keys of participants of the meeting. The device can encrypt the video that can be decrypted by using the personal keys of the participants. The device can save the encrypted video only in external storage device that communicates with the connecting unit while the camera shoots the video, and it is saved with information of the participants' identified personal keys. The decryption subsystem can decrypt the encrypted video when external storage device in which the encrypted video is saved communicates with the connecting unit and when the reader identifies the identified personal keys of the participants.

An apparatus for a social media streaming device may include (i) a camera connector that connects to and receives streaming video data from an external camera, (ii) a device connector that connects to and sends the streaming video data to a mobile device with network streaming capabilities, and (iii) a video processing module that enables the social media streaming device to, via the mobile device with network streaming capabilities, post the streaming video data to an account on a social media platform on behalf of a user. Various other methods, systems, and computer-readable media are also disclosed.

An electronic device of the disclosure may include a camera module including a lens assembly, a reflector for changing a field of view, a Hall sensor for identifying a position of the reflector, and a first memory for storing a first correction value for correcting shading by the lens assembly, a second memory for storing reflector shading correction, and a processor. The processor may obtain a first image frame by driving the camera module, obtain first Hall data corresponding to the position of the reflector through the Hall sensor while the first image frame is obtained through the camera module, obtain the first correction value from the first memory, obtain a second correction value corresponding to the first Hall data among the reflector shading correction values from the second memory, and perform shading correction on the first image frame based on the first correction value and the second correction value.

Techniques for video analytics of captured video content are described. An apparatus may comprise a flash memory, a serial bus, and a processor circuit coupled to the flash memory and the serial bus. The processor circuit may comprise a multi-core central processing unit (CPU) and an integrated graphics processing unit (GPU). The processor circuit may receive captured video content via a local communication link, perform video analytics on the captured video content; and send data associated with the performed video analytics to a network interface, for communication to a remote device via a network communication link. Other examples are described and claimed.

A system and method provide an enhanced listening experience for a user of a radio receiver or other device that receives broadcast or streamed content having a plurality of program channels. Thu method and system buffer designated channels at the receiver and, when switching among channels, play back the buffered designated channels during reception from a selected point therein depending on the channel or other criteria. When switching to a different channel during reception, a user is able to hear content in a buffered program channel with music from the start of a song, for example, whereas content in a channel with news, talk radio, or live sports is played back from live reception, even though the content segments are transmitted at different start times relative to their selected times for playback following a channel change. User controls allow navigation among buffered designated channels during reception.
