The vehicle accident recording system is configured for use with a vehicle. The vehicle further comprises a vehicle electric power source. The vehicle accident recording system comprises an acceleration sensor, a plurality of cameras, a control circuit, and a commercially provided and publically available cellular wireless network. The acceleration sensor detects the deceleration event. The plurality of cameras continuously captures video images of the area around the vehicle. The control circuit controls the operation of the vehicle accident recording system. The commercially provided and publically available cellular wireless network provides a communication link between the vehicle accident recording system and the appropriate authority. The vehicle accident recording system is isolated from the vehicle electric power source such that the vehicle accident recording system continues to operate in the event that the vehicle electric power source fails during the unfortunate incident.

An electronic device and a method for processing an image by the electronic device according to various embodiments of the present invention are provided. The method may comprise: generating password information for a first image using security information of a user; changing the first image to a second image using the generated password information; and transmitting the second image and the password information in response to a transmission request of the first image. Various other embodiments may be available.

There is provided a method for compositing remote sensing images (such as satellite images in visible light) with user generated content. An image capture device carried on a satellite platform is tasked to capture at least one remote sensing image of a geographical area within a predetermined time slot. The at least one remote sensing image is received at an interface portal along with at least one user-generated content, UGC, item. UGC items that have an associated location within the geographical area and that were captured within the time slot are merged, by the interface portal, with the remote sensing image to form a hybrid image. The interface portal and user device implementing the above method are described as is the system in which the method is implemented.

Aspects of the disclosure provide a method and an apparatus for synchronization to a common synchronization reference source. For example, the apparatus can include receiving circuitry and processing circuitry. The receiving circuitry can be configured to receive from a BS a signaling indicating a timing offset between sidelink synchronization timings of the apparatus and a GNSS. The processing circuitry can be configured to adjust the sidelink synchronization timing of the apparatus based on the timing offset.

A portable information device including a body, a position information portion that is provided in the body and that outputs position information, an image sensor that is provided in the body, a display system that is provided in the body and that displays, on a local field in a screen field, relevant information based on the position information such that the displayed relevant information is overlapped on a real-time image, an input portion that is provided on the body and, by use of which user operates an icon, the icon being displayed on the local field such that the displayed icon is overlapped on the real-time image and an imaging button that is provided, separately from the input portion, on the body and that is operated by user to capture a subject image via the image sensor.

Disclosed are computerized methods and systems for providing digital image data in which there appears a captured instance of a point of interest located within a coverage area of the systems. Exemplary systems may include at least one image repository gateway for accessing one or more image data repositories which may store digital image data of images and videos acquired from within the system coverage area. The system may also include an image scanning engine to search through and access image data from the one or more image data repositories in accordance with an image data search query, selecting stored images and videos with geolocation tags indicating a location within a spatial distance of a location parameter of the image date query. The system may perform image searches and retrievals based on manually defined search queries. The system may also include an Image search query generator configured to auto-generate an image data search query to find a moving subject appearing in a previously retrieved image, wherein the image data search query for finding and or tracking may be based on an auto-predicted route of the subject derived from a previously retrieved or selected image.

The present disclosure relates to a method and apparatus for an electronic device to share content information. The electronic device includes: a display; a processor that is electrically connected to the display; and a memory that is electrically connected to the processor. Upon the processor executing instructions stored in the memory, the processor is configured to perform: displaying a content in the display; detecting at least one shared area from the content; and generating a single image based on information associated with the at least one shared area.

The present invention relates to a method for determining imaging location information and a device for performing same. A method for generating imaging position information may comprise the steps in which: a service server receives information on a plurality of frames from an image processing device; the service server determines each of a plurality of pieces of imaging location information on each of the plurality of frames; and the service server generates an image to be provided to user by post-processing the plurality of frames on the basis of the plurality of pieces of imaging location information.

The present disclosure relates to user-selected metadata related to images captured by a camera of a client device. User-selected metadata may include contextual information and/or information provided by a user when the images are captured. In various implementations, a free form input may be received at a first client device of one or more client devices operated by a user. A task request may be recognized from the free form input, and it may be determined that the task request includes a request to store metadata related to one or more images captured by a camera of the first client device. The metadata may be selected based on content of the task request. The metadata may then be stored, e.g., in association with one or more images captured by the camera, in computer-readable media. The computer-readable media may be searchable by the metadata.
