The various implementations described herein include methods, devices, and systems for detecting motion and persons. In one aspect, a method is performed at a smart home system that includes a video camera, a server system, and a client device. The video camera captures video and audio, and wirelessly communicates, via the server system, the captured data to the client device. The server system: (1) receives and stores the captured data from the video camera; (2) determines whether an event has occurred, including detected motion; (3) in accordance with a determination that the event has occurred, identifies video and audio corresponding to the event; and (4) classifies the event. The client device receives information indicative of the identified events, displays a user interface for reviewing the video and audio stored by the remote server system, and displays the at least one classification for the event.

A method, computer system, and a computer program product for generating a summary video from a plurality of presentation attendee notes is provided. Embodiments of the disclosure may include collecting the plurality of attendee notes from a plurality of attendees of a presentation and then analyzing the collected plurality of notes to identify a plurality of common note topics. The identified plurality of common note topics may be correlated to a plurality of portions in a presentation video of the presentation which is used to generate the summary video by combining the correlated plurality of portions in the presentation video.

System and computer-implemented method for editing a video sequence with temporal consistency. The method includes the steps of: computing a motion field modeling temporal consistency between successive frames; defining an energy functional modeling the desired properties to be enforced on the video sequence; splitting the video sequence into two sets with even frames and odd frames; computing the motion field between consecutive frames on the splitted sequences; recursively performing steps until the sets to be split contain one frame to edit; minimizing the energy functional for each set containing one frame to edit; merging the edited frames and outputting the edited video sequence.

There is provided an apparatus configured to control a plurality of light emitting elements so that the light emitting elements display a lighting behavior. The apparatus includes a control portion operable to generate an instruction sequence. The instruction sequence controls the lighting behavior of the light emitting elements. The instruction sequence can include a plurality of lighting instructions. The control portion can include a first input portion and an option portion. The first input portion generates a first lighting instruction of the plurality of lighting instructions and the option portion can be operated by, for example, a user to present a second input portion for generating a second lighting instruction of the plurality of lighting instructions. The lighting behavior displayed by the light emitting elements can have a lighting sequence which is based on the instruction sequence where the first lighting instruction is followed by the second lighting instruction.
