Described is system that characterizes segments of document with one or more keyphrases and then uses keyphrases to help users find interesting parts of document. Keyphrases are displayed with information about the location of the phrase in the document and are used as pointers to quickly move to from overview to section of potential interest. In another implementation, when there are many documents in a collection, inventive multi-document view can be used to reduce number of documents presented, helping user to more efficiently find documents of interest. In this view, a user (possibly repeatedly) filters documents displayed based on metadata values. In one implementation, icons corresponding to documents are displayed on a display device together with metadata corresponding to the documents. When the value of the metadata is selected by the user, display state of the icons corresponding to document is varied based on selected value of metadata.

Described is a system and methods for embedding standard video-taking heuristics into video-recording devices to help improve the quality of captured video for consumer devices. The described approach uses a combination of audio, visual, and haptic feedback that responds to video as it is recorded. This feedback can help users compose better shots as well as help them develop an understanding of the fundamentals of good video-taking.

System and method that utilizes light sources, for example projectors embedded in mobile camera phones, to allow users to interact with documents on large displays without requiring users to install any third-party software. With this approach, multiple users can select interactors on the large display by displaying different images via their projector.

Systems and methods are provided for capturing, annotating, organizing and sharing content captured by a mobile device. The content may represent meeting notes on a whiteboard and may be captured by a camera on the mobile device, or by using specialized whiteboard capture software. Regions of the content where a user wishes to add annotations are then identified, after which the user adds annotations, such as written or audio annotations, to the identified regions. The annotated content is then organized into a specific sequence in which the content and the annotations will be presented, and a video is created from the sequence so that the annotated content can be easily shared with, and understood by, other users.

A system for visually navigating a document in conjunction with a text-to-speech (“TTS) engine presents a visual display of a region of interest that is related to the text of the document that is being audibly presented as speech to a user. When the TTS engine converts the text to speech and presents the speech to the user, the system presents the corresponding section of text on a display. During the presentation, if the system encounters a linked section of text, the visual display changes to display a linked region of interest that corresponds to the linked section of text.

A system and method for linking media that is captured and then classified based on a set of parameters, such that related media is linked for further analysis by a user. The parameters include temporal, proximity, and content information in the form of metadata that is extracted from each media clip received in the system. The linked media provides for complex analysis of collaboratively-captured media from multiple sources and the sharing of related media between users. The system further links annotations included with captured media to provide analysis of collaboratively-annotated media and aid users in accessing and synthesizing large amounts of collaboratively-captured media.

Increasingly people want to maintain a persistent personal presence in virtual spaces (usually via avatars). However, while mobile they tend to devote only short bursts of attention to their mobile device, making it difficult to control an avatar. The core contribution of this IP is to use implicitly sensed context from a mobile device to control avatars in a virtual space that does not directly correspond to the user's physical space. This work allows mobile users to have a presence in a virtual space that matches their environmental conditions without forcing them to configure and reconfigure their virtual presence manually.
