An approach is provided for managing a usage of a camera. Based on a second location of the camera being determined to match a first location associated incidents of camera usage that caused harm, the camera is determined to be at a location of concern. The user is notified about the location of concern by a rule-specified, highlighted boundary in a pre-captured first image on the camera display. A person in a pre-captured second image is determined to be within the boundary. The usage of the camera by the user is determined to likely cause a danger to the person. Based on the person being within the boundary and the usage of the camera being likely to cause the danger, a functionality of the camera is disabled so that the camera is not able to capture an image.

Modulating the received, demodulated and processed spread spectrum signal into a modulated Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexed (OFDM) signal and transmitting the OFDM modulated signal in a digital communications wireless Network. Processing, in a mobile device, a fingerprint signal for authenticating use of the mobile device, and processing a touch screen generated signal for controlling the mobile device. Processing in a mobile device a motion detector generated signal into a motion detector generated control signal for control of mobile device. Receiving, demodulating and processing in a mobile device a modulated location finder signal into a processed location finder signal. Generating and processing in a mobile device a photo and/or video signal into processed digital photo and/or video signal. Providing the processed photo and/or digital video signal with said processed location finder signal to a transmitter for transmission of digital video signal with the processed location finder signal.

Provided is an information processing server and the like, in which in response to the start of an on period of the movable body V, imaged images that are registered at the client 2 and a designated location are associated and transmitted to an information processing server 1. An image corresponding to a first designated location that is a designated location that is outside a base area that is specific to the client 2 is registered as a first image in the information processing server 1. Further, an image library with respect to a trip period of the client 2 is generated based on a plurality of first images that are registered in the information processing server 1 in response to the start of an off period of the movable body V that occurs one or a plurality of times.

A method and an apparatus to provide a service using a sensor and image recognition in a portable terminal that supports Augmented Reality (AR). The method includes determining whether the portable terminal is parallel to ground using an acceleration sensor. When the portable terminal is parallel to the ground, either a map including nearby Point Of Interest (POI) information or constellation information is displayed.

Systems, methods, devices, computer readable media, and other various embodiments are described for location management processes in wearable electronic devices. Performance of such devices is improved with reduced time to first fix of location operations in conjunction with low-power operations. In one embodiment, low-power circuitry manages high-speed circuitry and location circuitry to provide location assistance data from the high-speed circuitry to the low-power circuitry automatically on initiation of location fix operations as the high-speed circuitry and location circuitry are booted from low-power states. In some embodiments, the high-speed circuitry is returned to a low-power state prior to completion of a location fix and after capture of content associated with initiation of the location fix. In some embodiments, high-speed circuitry is booted after completion of a location fix to update location data associated with content.

Receiving and processing in an automobile a sensor transmitted signal into a processed sensor signal for control or monitor of certain functions of an automobile. Processing in an automobile a touch screen generated signal for controlling communications and or navigation of the automobile. Receiving, demodulating and processing a signal into a processed baseband location finder signal for location finding and or navigation of an automobile. Providing a photo camera signal with processed baseband location finder signal to a modulator and transmitter for modulation and transmission of photo camera generated photo with processed baseband location finder signal in a third generation (3G), or a fourth generation (4G), or a fifth generation (5G) wireless network. Receiving and demodulating, in an automobile, a modulated Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexed (OFDM) signal into a first demodulated OFDM signal and processing, modulating and transmitting the first demodulated OFDM signal into a second processed, modulated and transmitted OFDM signal.

The present invention relates to a method for uploading a file from a user device (10) to a data storage service (20, 30, 40). According to the method, a category of a set of categories is assigned to the file based on at least one characteristic of the file characterising a content of the file. Furthermore, a data storage service (20, 30, 40) from a set of data storage services is assigned based on the assigned category and the file is uploaded to the assigned data storage service (20, 30, 40).

A method, apparatus, system for image processing is provided that creates an object note for a picture. The method, apparatus or system includes: automatically obtaining picture description information from a picture source, wherein the picture description information at least partly have been formed automatically; obtaining annotation information from at least two object sources, wherein the two object sources are different from the picture sources, automatically fusing the said annotation information from the two object sources to form fused annotation information, and attaching said fused annotation information to the picture to create the object note for the picture.

An approach is provided for managing a usage of a camera. A context of a camera being used by a user is determined. The context includes information selected from: a geographic location of the camera, a direction in which the camera is pointed, a position of the user, a time at which the camera is being used by the user, and an identification of object(s) in an image being processed by the camera. Based on the context of the camera, it is determined that the usage of the camera by the user is likely to cause a danger to the user or to another person. Based on the usage of the camera being likely to cause the danger, a functionality of the camera is disabled or a notification about the danger is sent to one or more persons.

An imaging device includes an imaging portion that images a subject; a positional information acquisition portion that acquires positional information of an imaging position; a control portion which acquires information on the subject based on the positional information, and displays image data of the subject and the information on the subject on a display portion; and a hold control portion that outputs a hold control signal, which holds the image data of the subject and the information on the subject, to the control portion.
