An integrated hands-free, point of view, action-sports, digital video camera (or camcorder) () includes: a rotary horizon adjustment controller () for adjusting the orientation of a horizontal image plane () recorded by an image sensor with respect to the orientation of a camera housing (); a laser alignment system with laser sources () capable of projecting light to define a horizontal projection axis () that is coordinated with orientation of the horizontal image plane (); a manually operable switch (), which covers a microphone () whenever the switch () is in the OFF position, for controlling video data capture; and a 'quick-release' mounting system () that retains a desired orientation of the camera ().

Image orientation control for a portable digital video camera

A wearable digital video camera () is equipped with wireless connection protocol and global navigation and location positioning system technology to provide remote image acquisition control and viewing. The Bluetooth® packet-based open wireless technology standard protocol () is preferred for use in providing control signals or streaming data to the digital video camera and for accessing image content stored on or streaming from the digital video camera. The GPS technology () is preferred for use in tracking of the location of the digital video camera as it records image information. A rotating mount () with a locking member () on the camera housing () allows adjustment of the pointing angle of the wearable digital video camera when it is attached to a mounting surface.

A baby handling device includes a removable, washable pillow cover sized and shaped to fit over and extend from an irregular star-shaped pillow and provides at least two elongated star-point shaped extensions formed of flexible material and adapted to fold over and enclose at least a portion of a baby positioned on the cover. The cover has a closeable opening sized and shaped to permit insertion and removal of the pillow which is formed of resilient material and includes a broad center section with a central depression to receive a baby's head. A central point-shaped portion of the pillow extends upwardly from the depression and is adapted to lodge under an arm of a breast feeding mother. The pillow includes first and second side portions that surround a cavity that is sized and shaped to receive the shoulders and torso of the baby. The side portions support a baby's arms.

A user interface is used to assign different devices and device types to media services where the number of different devices and device types that are capable of being assigned is determined by access privilege information corresponding to such media services. When a number of devices of a specific type are assigned where such a number exceeds a limit specified in the access privilege information, the assignment of additional devices of that specific type is halted.

Method and apparatus for assigning devices to a media service

The disclosed embodiments relate to a system and method for a touchscreen device. The method includes presenting a program guide. The program guide includes a cell associated with a content item. The cell is selected in response to a first user input. The method also includes determining, in response to a second user input, a number of content occurrences of the content item to record based on a length of the second user input. The second user input includes a rightward movement. Additionally, the method includes scheduling the content item to be recorded for the number of content occurrences.
