Abstract: The display of images, such as lenticular images, in a limited display space can be aided through the use of motion-based control, whereby a user can rotate and/or translate a computing device in order to cause different views of a lenticular image to be displayed. Sensors can be used to determine the motion in order to select the appropriate view to display. Approaches can further assist the user in creating lenticular images. The user can specify various configurations in which to display different views in a lenticular. If the user is capturing the images, one or more previously-acquired images can be used as a guide to help the user to align the images. Various processing can be performed to cause the individual views of the lenticular to match as closely as possible in factors such as alignment, brightness, and color range, among other such options.

Abstract: Headphones can be configured such that back surfaces of the speaker housings can be coupled to form a loop enabling users to wear the headphones around their necks when the speakers are not in use. In various embodiments, faces of the respective speaker housings may comprise asymmetrical, complementary surfaces. In such embodiments, the users can distinguish between the speakers intended to correspond with respective right and left stereo channels by tactile feel. In some embodiments, the interlocking of the housing structures can be achieved by magnetic force to maintain the coupling when the speakers are not in use but can be decoupled by the user without undue effort. In some embodiments, the speaker housings are configured to constrain the housings to a specific orientation when mated.
Abstract translation: 可以配置耳机，使得扬声器壳体的后表面可以耦合以形成环路，使得当扬声器不使用时，用户可以在其颈部周围佩戴耳机。 在各种实施例中，相应扬声器壳体的表面可以包括不对称的互补表面。 在这样的实施例中，用户可以通过触觉来区分旨在与相应的右和左立体声通道相对应的扬声器。 在一些实施例中，壳体结构的互锁可以通过磁力来实现，以在扬声器不使用时保持耦合，但是可以在不用过度的努力的情况下被使用者解耦。 在一些实施例中，扬声器壳体被配置为当配合时将壳体约束到特定取向。

Abstract: The display of images, such as panoramic images, in a limited display space can be aided through the use of motion-based control, whereby a user can rotate and/or translate a computing device in order to view different portions of the image, including translating or zooming within the image. Sensors can be used to determine the motion for adjusting the display. The same or other sensors can also assist a user in capturing such an image. For example, a compass can determine the relative orientation of the device and a gyroscope can determine rotation of the device, to determine an appropriate path of motion for the capture and any deviation from that path. The user can be provided with information enabling the user to follow the path with an appropriate device orientation.

Abstract: Technologies are described herein for determining calibration settings for displaying content on a monitor. A user may use a mobile computing device to determine calibration settings for a monitor. A calibration tool on the mobile computing device causes one or more calibration images to be displayed on the monitor. The calibration images are used to determine settings related to gamma, brightness, contrast, color settings, and the like that are associated with the monitor. After a calibration image is displayed, the calibration tool utilizes a camera on the mobile computing device to capture an image of the calibration image. The calibration tool analyzes the captured image data to determine calibration settings for the monitor. The calibration tool may apply the calibration settings directly to the monitor or might adjust image data before the image data is displayed.

Abstract: A plurality of depth planes corresponding to a scene within a field of view of a camera of a computing device can be computed based on stereographic techniques, infrared transceivers, ultrasonic transceivers, among other approaches. The depth planes can be utilized to independently meter subject matter of interest (e.g., person, object, region, etc.) corresponding to each depth plane to obtain image statistics for each depth plane. The image statistics can be analyzed to determine optimal settings (e.g., focus, exposure, white balance, etc.) for each depth plane, and a camera can be configured to acquire image data according to the optimal settings for one or more of the depth planes. Further, the image statistics can be leveraged for processing portions of the image data that are not optimized during capture. Thus, a final image can reflect optimizations for multiple subject matter of interest located at various distances from a computing device.

Abstract: Approaches utilize image information to not only identify a user, but also verify that the user is actually a physical person and not a false representation of that user. For example, a computing device can utilize image information with a facial recognition process in order to verify an identity of a current user of the device. A fingerprint or other verification metric can be generated from the image information and can be used to verify that the user is actually a physical human user instead of a representation (e.g., photo) of a human user. The fingerprint can include a number of cues, such as a shape of the face, a stereo disparity signature of the face, facial feature movement, as well as a presence of a human pulse. The cues can be combined and utilized for authenticating a user into the device as well as for verifying that the user is actually a physical person and not a false representation of that user.

Abstract: A finger of a user detected within a predetermined range from a surface of a display screen can be used to navigate through and select content in accordance with various embodiments. In response to detecting the finger within the predetermined range, a selection element can be positioned offset from the finger. The offset positioning keeps the selection element from being obscured by the finger and, thus, enabling it to remain visible to the user. In response to detecting the user's finger approaching the surface of the display screen, the selection element becomes fixed in its current location when the finger reaches a threshold distance from the surface. Accordingly, as the finger gets closer to the surface, it starts to converge with the selection element. Finally, the finger converges with the selection element when the finger reaches the surface of the display screen to select the desired content.
Abstract translation: 根据各种实施例，可以使用从显示屏的表面在预定范围内检测到的用户的手指导航并选择内容。 响应于在预定范围内检测到手指，选择元件可以定位成偏离手指。 偏移定位使得选择元素不被手指遮挡，并且因此使其能够保持对用户可见。 响应于检测到用户的手指接近显示屏幕的表面，当手指到达距离表面的阈值距离时，选择元件变得固定在其当前位置。 因此，当手指靠近表面时，它开始与选择元件收敛。 最后，当手指到达显示屏幕的表面以选择期望的内容时，手指与选择元件收敛。
