Abstract: A computing device can include a recognition mode interface utilizing graphical elements, such as virtual fireflies, to indicate recognized or identified objects. The fireflies can be animated to move across a display, and the fireflies can create bounding boxes around visual representations of objects as the objects are recognized. In some cases, the object might be of a type that has specific meaning or information to be conveyed to a user. In such cases, the fireflies might be displayed with a particular size, shape, or color to convey that information. The fireflies also can be configured to form shapes or patterns in order to convey other types of information to a user, such as where audio is being recognized, light is sufficient for image capture, and the like. Other types of information can be conveyed as well via altering characteristics of the fireflies.

Abstract: Devices, systems and methods are disclosed for anchoring bookmarks to individual words for precise positioning within electronic documents. The bookmarks may be anchored based on user input selecting particular words, based on gaze tracking identifying most recently read words, or based on estimated reading speed. The bookmarks may be a link used to navigate within the document, may be used as an anchor for a new layout after content reflow or may be automatically saved when the e-reader turns off the display to provide the user with a most recently read passage. If a bookmark isn't anchored to specific words by the user, the device may anchor the bookmark to the beginning of a sentence or a paragraph including the recently read words determined using gaze tracking or estimated reading speed.

Abstract: A computing device can obtain information about how the device is held, moved, and/or used by a hand of a user holding the device. The information can be obtained utilizing one or more sensors of the device independently or working in conjunction. For example, an orientation sensor can determine whether a left hand or a right hand is likely rotating, tilting, and/or moving, and thus holding, the device. In another example, a camera and/or a hover sensor can obtain information about a finger position of the user's hand to determine whether the hand is likely a left hand or a right hand. In a further example, a touch sensor can determine a shape of an imprint of a portion of the user's hand to determine which hand is likely holding the device. Based on which hand is holding the device, the device can improve one or more computing tasks.

Abstract: A system determines if someone watching a live video feed looks or moves away from a display screen, and when their attention is back on the display, provides an accelerated recap of the content that they missed. The video component of the feed may be shown as a series of selected still images or clips from the original feed, while audio and/or text captioning is output at an accelerated rate. The rate may be adaptively adjusted to maintain a consistent speed, and superfluous content may be omitted. When the recap catches up to the live feed, output returns to regular speed.
Abstract translation: 系统确定观看实时视频馈送的人是否看起来或远离显示屏幕，并且当他们的注意力回到显示器上时，提供他们错过的内容的加速回顾。 馈送的视频分量可以被显示为来自原始馈送的一系列所选择的静止图像或剪辑，同时以加速的速率输出音频和/或文本字幕。 可以自适应地调整速率以保持一致的速度，并且可以省略多余的内容。 当回顾达到直播饲料时，输出返回正常速度。

Abstract translation: 计算设备可以获取关于如何通过持有设备的用户的手来保持，移动和/或使用设备的信息。 该信息可以利用设备中的一个或多个传感器独立地或联合工作来获得。 例如，取向传感器可以确定左手或右手是否可能旋转，倾斜和/或移动，并因此保持该装置。 在另一示例中，相机和/或悬停传感器可以获得关于用户手的手指位置的信息，以确定手可能是左手还是右手。 在另一示例中，触摸传感器可以确定用户手的一部分的印记的形状以确定哪个手可能保持该设备。 根据装载装置的方式，设备可以改进一个或多个计算任务。
