A camera system includes a housing and camera modules (e.g., digital cameras) that are aligned with fields of view that extend below the housing. The camera modules are provided about a perimeter of the housing and mounted to a bench within the housing. Two camera modules have axes of orientation extending below and away from a centroid of the camera system. Two camera modules have axes of orientation extending below and toward the centroid of the camera system. The housing includes inlets and outlets that enable air to flow past the camera modules and other components within the housing. Images captured by the camera modules of the camera system may be utilized for any purpose.

Hybrid omnidirectional camera systems

Techniques are described for facilitating interactions between computing systems, such as in accordance with usage models that are configured for available services by the providers of the services. In some situations, the services are Web services, and an electronic Web service ('WS') marketplace is provided via which third-party WS providers make their WSes available to third-party WS consumers who purchase access to those WSes via the electronic marketplace based on configured usage models selected by the consumers. Some or all of the one or more usage models configured for an available WS may each have associated use prices and/or non-price use conditions, and if so access to those WSes using those usage models may be provided only if a consumer requesting access provides appropriate payment and otherwise satisfies the specified use conditions for a selected usage model.

Controlling access to services via usage models

Disclosed are various embodiments for automatically selecting alert modes for a mobile device based at least in part on the mobile device location. In one embodiment, a velocity of the mobile device is determined. If the velocity exceeds a threshold, the mobile device refrains from automatically configuring a notification of the mobile device to use a location-dependent alert mode.

Automatically selecting alert modes based on location

Disclosed are various embodiments for automatically selecting alert modes for a mobile device based at least in part on the mobile device location. A location of the mobile device is determined. A map feature classification of the location is obtained from a server. One or more notifications of the mobile device are automatically to use a particular alert mode that is selected based at least in part on the map feature classification of the location.

Providing multiple configurable usage models for available services

Providing configurable usage models for available services

A method, system, and computer-readable medium is described for facilitating interactions between computing systems, such as by providing an electronic Web service ('WS') marketplace via which third-party WS providers make their WSes available to third-party WS consumers who locate and purchase access to those WSes via the electronic marketplace. Some or all available WSes may have associated use prices and or non-price use conditions, and if so access to those WSes may be provided only if a consumer requesting access provides appropriate payment and otherwise satisfies the specified use conditions. In some situations, WS consumers may also purchase subscriptions to provide later access to registered WSes. This abstract is provided to comply with rules requiring it, and is submitted with the intention that it will not be used to interpret or limit the scope or meaning of the claims.

Providing a marketplace for web services

A kit for cleaning phonograph records including cleaning fluid, a brush and a record vacuum cleaning attachment apparatus. The record vacuum cleaning attachment apparatus is adapted to attach to a wet/dry shop vacuum cleaner which causes a suction to emanate from a longitudinal slot in the lower surface of the record vacuum cleaning attachment apparatus. The suction emanating from the longitudinal slot of the record vacuum cleaning attachment apparatus safely removes the dirt, dust, grease, grime and chemicals which are suspended in the cleaning fluid applied to the playing surface of the phonograph record.
