Implementations generally relate to updating events in a social network system. In some implementations a method includes generating one or more event objects having an event information section associated with a first user. The method also includes sending a post from the first user to one or more target users in a social network system, updating the one or more event objects based on the event information section, and causing the one or more updated event objects to be displayed along with the post to the one or more target users in the social network system.

Updating event posts

The present disclosure provides image capture devices and associated methods of operation that enable the interactive editing of imagery, including, for example, removal and/or addition of non-stationary objects from and/or to captured imagery. According to one example aspect of the present disclosure, an image capture device can capture a plurality of frames of imagery that depict a scene and, while capturing the plurality of frames of imagery, provide a composite image within a viewfinder of the image capture device, where non-stationary objects included in the scene are removed from the composite image. According to another example aspect of the present disclosure, the image capture device can allow a user to edit a final composite image directly within the viewfinder. Thus, the present disclosure provides systems and methods that enable enhanced capture and interactive editing of imagery.

Systems and methods for removing non-stationary objects from imagery

The present disclosure provides systems and methods that generate a summary storyboard from a plurality of image frames. An example computer-implemented method can include inputting a plurality of image frames into a machine-learned model and receiving as an output of the machine-learned model, object data that describes the respective locations of a plurality of objects recognized in the plurality of image frames. The method can include generating a plurality of image crops that respectively include the plurality of objects and arranging two or more of the plurality of image crops to generate a storyboard.

The present disclosure provides systems and methods that generate a scrubbing video that depicts a scrubbing operation performed on a first video. In particular, a user can directly manipulate video playback of the first video (e.g., by interacting with a touch-sensitive display screen) and the scrubbing video can depict such manipulation. As one example, the user can 'scratch' his or her videos like a disc jockey (DJ) scratches records to produce scrubbing videos that are remixes (e.g., looping remixes) of his or her original videos. Thus, the systems and methods of the present disclosure enable a user to capture and edit a new type of video that allows the user to directly manipulate its timeline, producing fun and creative results.

Direct user manipulation of video to generate scrubbing videos

A method and computing system for providing, using one or more computing devices, a synchronous communication session for a plurality of users of a social network. A first video stream of a first user of the plurality of users is rendered within a primary viewing field associated with the synchronous communication session. At least a second video stream of at least a second user of the plurality of users is rendered within the primary viewing field associated with the synchronous communication session.

Synchronous communication system and method

A method and computing system for providing, using one or more computing devices, a synchronous communication session for a plurality of users of a social network. A first video stream of a first user of the plurality of users is rendered within a primary viewing field associated with the synchronous communication session. A placeholder for the first user of the plurality of users is rendered within a first portion of a secondary viewing field associated with the synchronous communication session. The secondary viewing field includes a plurality of portions. A video stream of the remaining users of the plurality of users is rendered within the remaining portions of the secondary viewing field.

A method, computer program product, and computing system for receiving an indication of a user selecting a selected portion of a piece of content for review on a display screen. A determination is made concerning whether the piece of content will fit within the display screen. If the piece of content will not fit within the display screen: a header portion of the piece of content is rendered within an upper portion of the display screen, and the selected portion of the piece of content is rendered within a main portion of the display screen.

Data presentation

The tactile sensor has at least two conductive workpieces which bear on one another at a bearing area, at least one workpiece of which is produced from elastomer, with the result that it is possible to measure a contact resistance between the workpieces, which contact resistance is dependent at least on a pressure on the bearing area. At least one of the conductive workpieces comprises a conductive closed cell foam.

Tactile sensor apparatus and methods

An electronic whiteboard system using an electronic whiteboard having a foam sensor for measuring the input data drawn onto the whiteboard writing surface. The electronic whiteboard system includes a communications interface that allows the electronic whiteboard to serve as a network appliance. In particular, the electronic whiteboard's interface includes at least a network interface capable of communicating the measured input data, and also audio data in some embodiments, directly via a network to a server or to a networked computer, in response to a request to access a stored electronic whiteboard meeting. In some embodiments, the server stores the input data associated with an electronic whiteboard meeting and in other embodiments the electronic whiteboard has sufficient memory to store the input data of a meeting.
