Synchronization of simultaneously captured media in a multi-camera system is performed using a consistent file structure within the cameras. A primary camera receives a bitmap describing the file and folder utilization of each of one or more secondary cameras. The primary camera selects a folder number and file position number that is commonly available across all cameras. The primary camera directs the secondary cameras to store subsequently simultaneously captured media content at the selected file number and folder position number. During post-processing, simultaneously-captured content is accessed based on common folder numbers and file position numbers. A post-processing system compares a timestamp associated with each content file in a group with matching folder numbers and file position numbers to identify false positive groupings.

Moving images are switched naturally when development of a story is switched according to a situation. An image display system includes a display unit that displays a moving image, an acquisition unit that acquires a motion of a user viewing the moving image displayed by the display unit, a determination unit that determines whether or not the motion of the user acquired by the acquisition unit satisfies a predetermined switching condition in which the user does not recognize switching between images even when the moving image displayed by the display unit is switched from first moving image data to second moving image data different from the first moving image, and a switching unit that switches the moving image displayed by the display unit from the first moving image data to the second moving image data when the determination unit determines that the switching condition is satisfied.

Disclosed are techniques that provide a best picture taken within a few seconds of the moment when a capture command is received (e.g., when the shutter button is pressed). In some situations, several still images are automatically (that is, without the user's input) captured. These images are compared to find a best image that is presented to the photographer for consideration. Video is also captured automatically and analyzed to see if there is an action scene or other motion content around the time of the capture command. If the analysis reveals anything interesting, then the video clip is presented to the photographer. The video clip may be cropped to match the still-capture scene and to remove transitory parts. Higher-precision horizon detection may be provided based on motion analysis and on pixel-data analysis.

An augmented reality property system assessable via enrolled handy having the ability to filterably record and read augmented reality moment files tagged to real object or locations selectably via augmented reality moment file icons viewable by enrolled handy when positioned near tagged real object or locations. Augmented reality moment files also include augmented estate owner content for display when an augmented reality moment file icon is selected within the confines of an augmented estate.

A sheet discriminator, which is incorporated in an image forming apparatus and an image forming system, includes a sheet loader on which a recording medium is loaded, an information detector including a light emitter to emit light to a surface of the recording medium loaded on the sheet loader and a light receiver to receive the light emitted by the light emitter and detecting information of the recording medium, a sheet distinguisher to distinguish a type of the recording medium based on the information detected by the information detector, and a light emission controller to control activation and stop of the light emitter and activate the light emitter before the information detector starts detection of the information of the recording medium.

An aerosol delivery device includes a cartridge of aerosol precursor composition, and a control body coupled or coupleable to the cartridge. The control body includes a control component to control delivery of components of the aerosol precursor composition in response to detection of airflow through at least a portion of the cartridge or control body, and includes a camera system with a digital camera to capture video imagery of a scene in a field of view thereof. The camera system or the control component is configured to perform video content analytics on the video imagery to detect a temporal or spatial event in the scene, and transfer at least one of the video imagery or information indicative of the temporal or spatial event externally to a computing device configured to store or display the video imagery or information, or perform at least one control operation based on the information.

An information recording device includes a data acquisition unit and a service information recording unit. The data acquisition unit acquires data. The service information recording unit records in a recording unit service information including information regarding each of a plurality of services which may be performed utilizing the data acquired by the data acquisition unit in association with the data acquired by the data acquisition unit.

A digital image processing apparatus and a method of controlling the same. The digital image processing apparatus includes: a display controller for displaying first content on a display unit; and an image generator for generating second content based on a photographing signal input, which may be from a user, and third content related to the second content.

A system for collection and distribution of curated tagged content includes a server or collection of servers in communication with one or more networks. The servers receive moment files generated by recording users via recording devices; each moment file is associated with a tagged object (e.g., physical or virtual) and includes associated media content. Each moment file is associated with recorder-side filtering via which a potential reader may be defined as an eligible or ineligible reader of the moment file. The server stores the received moment files to memory and receives indications of an eligible reading device near an associated tagged object and displays eligible interactive AR/VR content to a reading user having a reader-side filter indicating an interest in the content.
