The (copyright or mask work) owner has no objection to the facsimile reproduction by anyone of the patent document or the patent disclosure, as it appears in the Patent and Trademark Office patent file or records, but otherwise reserves all (copyright or mask work) rights whatsoever. The applicant acknowledges the respective rights of various Intellectual property owners.

[0002] The present invention relates generally to displaying contextual keywords with corresponding associated or related or contextual one or more types of user actions, reactions, call-to-actions, relations, activities and interactions for user selection, wherein displaying contextual keywords based on plurality of factors and in the event of selection of keywords store and associate keywords with unique identity of user and in the event of selection of keyword associated action, associate keywords with unique identity of user and store data related to selected type of user actions, reactions, call-to-actions, relations, activities and interactions.

[0003] Recently Apple™ offers touch ID to use fingerprint to unlock a handset, Google™ has now released an update to its Android software allowing owners to unlock their phone with their voice. U.S. Pat. No. 8,235,529 teaches “The computing system may generate a display of a moving object on the display screen of the computing system. An eye tracking system may be coupled to the computing system. The eye tracking system may track eye movement of the user. The computing system may determine that a path associated with the eye movement of the user substantially matches a path associated with the moving object on the display and switch to be in an unlocked mode of operation including unlocking the screen.” All above prior arts requires particular hardware or user intervention to unlock device. Most of the smart device including mobile devices now enabled user to use camera while device is lock by tapping on camera icon. Present invention enables user to either unlock device by using eye tracking system via employing user device image sensor or auto open camera display screen by identifying pre-defined types of device orientation and pre-defined aye gaze via eye tracking system. Because present invention wants to auto open camera on lacked device which at present user has to tap on camera icon to open the camera, so it's possible to employ simple eye tracking system and orientation sensor(s) to auto open camera and there is no issue of privacy and security to need to employ advance fingerprint hardware or each time issue voice command.

[0004] Currently user has to each time unlock device and invoke or click or tap on default camera application or other one or more types of photo applications for capturing photo or recording video or voice or preparing one or more type of media. In an embodiment present invention identifies user intention to take photo or video based on one or more types of eye tracking system to detect that user want to start camera screen display to capture photo or record video or invoke & access camera display screen and based on that automatically open camera display screen or application or interface without user need to manually open it each time when user want's to capture photo or record video/voice or access device camera. Eye tracking system identifies eye positions and movement by eye tracking to measure the point of gaze to identify eye position e.g. straight to eye(s) for taking photo or video and automatically invoke, open and show camera display screen so user is enable to capture photo or video without each time manually open camera application. In another embodiment present invention identifies user intention to take photo or video based on one or more types of sensors by identifying device position i.e. far from body. Based on one or more types of eye tracking system and/or sensors, present invention also detect or identifies user intention to view received or shared contents or one or more types of media including photos or videos or posts from one or more contacts or sources e.g. Eye tracking system identifies eye positions and movement by eye tracking to measure the point of gaze to identify eye position and proximity sensor identifies distance of user device (e.g. device in hand in viewing position), so based on that system identifies user intention to read or view media.

[0005] At present Snapchat™ or Instagram™ enables user to view received ephemeral message or one or more types of visual media items or content items from senders for pre-set view duration set by sender and in the event of expiration of said timer, remove said ephemeral message from recipient's device and/or server. Because there are plurality types of user contacts including friends, relatives, family, other types of contacts there is need of identifying or providing different ephemeral and/or non-ephemeral settings for different types of users. For example for family members user wants that they can save user's posts or view alter and for other users e.g. some friends wants they can view user posted content items for pre-set view duration only and in the event of expiry of said pre-set duration of timer remove said user ported content items from their device. For some contacts e.g. best friends user wants they can real-time view and react real-time. So present invention enables sender user and receiving user to select, input, apply, and set one or more types of ephemeral and non-ephemeral settings for one or more contacts or senders or recipients or sources or destinations for sending or receiving of contents.

[0006] U.S. Pat. No. 9,148,569 teaches “according to one embodiment of the present invention, a check's image is automatically captured. A stabilization parameter of the mobile device is determined using a movement sensor. It is determined whether the stabilization parameter is greater than or equal to a stabilization threshold. An image of the check is captured using the mobile device if the stabilization parameter is greater than or equal to the stabilization threshold.” But said invention does not tech about in single mode capturing of photo or video based on the stabilization threshold and the receiving of haptic contact engagement or tap on the single mode input icon which determines whether a photograph will be recorded or a video. Present invention teaches, based on monitored device stabilization parameter via device senor, stabilization threshold is identified. In the event of stabilization parameter is greater than or equal to a stabilization threshold and in response to haptic contact engagement, photo is captured and photo is store. If stabilization parameter is not greater than or not equal to a stabilization threshold or in the event of stabilization parameter is less than to a stabilization threshold and in response to haptic contact engagement, start recording of video and start timer and in an embodiment stop video, store video and stop or re-initiate timer in the event of expiration of pre-set timer.

[0007] At present Snapchat™ or Instagram™ enables user to add one or more photos or videos to “My Stories” or feed for publishing or broadcasting or presenting said added phots or videos or sequence of photos or videos to one or more or all friends or contacts or connections or followers or particular category or type of user. Snapchat™ or Instagram™ enables user to add one or more photos or videos to “Our Stories” or feed i.e. add photos or videos to particular events or place or location or activity or category and making them available to requested user or searching user or connected or related user.

[0008] At present some of the photo sharing applications enables user to prepare one or more types of media including capture photo or record video or prepare text contents or any combination thereof and add to user's stories or add to particular type or category related feeds or add to particular event(s) for making them available to one or more or all friends or contacts or connections or networks or followers or groups or making available for all or particular type of users. None of the presently available type of feed(s) or story or stories enables user to provide object criteria i.e. model of object or sample image or sample photo and provide one or more criteria or conditions or rules or preferences or settings and based on that provide object model or sample image and provided one or more criteria or conditions or rules or preferences or settings identify or recognize or track or match one or more matched object or full or part of image or photo or video inside captured or presented or live photo or video and merge all identified photos or videos and present to user. For example by using present invention user can provide object model or sample image of “coffee” and/or provide “coffee” keyword and/or provide location as “Mumbai” for searching all coffee related photos and videos by identifying or recognizing “coffee” object inside photo or video and matching said provided “coffee” object or sample image with said identified “coffee” object or image inside said captured or selected or live photo or video and processing or merging or separating or sequencing said all identified photos and videos and presenting to user or searching user or requesting user or recipient user or targeting user.

[0009] At present photo applications or Google Glass™ or Snapchat Spectacles™ enables user to capture photo or record video and send or post to one or more selected contacts or one or more types of stories or feeds. So by using camera of smartphone or photo applications or one or more types of wearable devices including spectacles, it's very easy to capture someone's photos or selfie or record video without knowing to them. So there is need arise to provide privacy settings to allow or not allow 3^rd parties or user's contacts or other users to capture user's photo or record video. Present invention enables user to allow or not allow all or selected one or more users and/or allow or not allow all or selected one or more users at particular one or more pre-defined location(s) or place(s) or pre-defined geo-fence boundaries and/or allow or not allow all or selected one or more users at particular one or more pre-defined location(s) or place(s) or pre-defined geo-fence boundaries at particular pre-set schedule(s) to capture user's photo or record video or allow or not allow to capture photo or record video at particular selected location(s) or place(s) or within pre-defined geo-fence boundaries and/or at particular pre-set schedule(s) and/or for all or one or more selected users (phone contacts, social contacts, clients, customers, guests, subscribers, attendees, ticket holders etc.) or one or more types of pre-defined users or pre-defend particular type of characteristics of users.

[0010] Currently Google™ search engine enables user to search as per user provided search query or keywords and present search result. Advertisers can create and manage one or more campaign and associate advertisements groups and associate advertisements. Advertisers can provide keywords, bids, advertisement text or description, image, video and settings. Based on said created advertisements related keywords and bids Google™ search present advertisement to searching user by matching user's search keywords with advertisement related keywords and present highest bids advertisement top position or in prominent place on search result page. Google Image Search™ search and present matched or some level identical images based on user provided image. Present invention enables user to provide or upload or set or apply image or image of part of or particular object, item, face of people, brand, logo, thing, product or object model and/or provide textual description, keywords, tags, metadata, structured fields and associate values, templates, samples & requirement specification and/or provide one or more conditions including similar, exact match, partially match, include & exclude, Boolean operators including AND/OR/NOT/+/−/Phrases, rules. Based on provided object model, object type, metadata, object criteria & conditions server identifies, matches, recognize photos or videos stored by server or accessed but server provided from one or more sources, databases, networks, applications, devices, storage mediums and present to users wherein presented media includes series of or collections of or groups of or slide shows of photos or merged or sequences of or collection of videos or live streams. For example plurality of merchant can upload videos of available products and/or associate details which server stores at server database. Searching user is enabled to provide or input or select or upload one or more image(s) or object model of particular object or product e.g. “mobile device” and provide particular location or place name as search query. Based on said search query server matches or identifies said object e.g. “mobile device” with recognized or detected or identified object inside videos and/or photos and/or live stream and/or one or more types of media stored or accessed from one or more sources and present or present merged or series of said identified or searched or matched videos and/or photos and/or live stream and/or one or more type of media to searching user or contextual user or requested user or user(s) of network.

[0011] Present invention teaches various embodiments related to ephemeral contents including rule base ephemeral message system, enabling sender to post content or media including photo and enable to add or update or edit or delete one or more content item including photo or video from one or more recipient devices, whom sender sends or adds based on connection with recipient and/or privacy settings of recipient.

[0012] At present plurality of applications particularly Snapchat™ enables user to capture and post captured photo or video to selected contacts and/or “My Stories” and/or “Our Stories” and post will delete after particular set period of time by sender at recipient device or application. U.S. Pat. No. 8,914,752 teaches “present on a display indicia of a set of ephemeral messages available for viewing; present on the display a first ephemeral message of the set of ephemeral messages for a first transitory period of time defined by a timer, wherein the first ephemeral message is deleted when the first transitory period of time expires; receive from a touch controller a haptic contact signal indicative of a gesture applied to the display during the first transitory period of time; wherein the ephemeral message controller deletes the first ephemeral message in response to the haptic contact signal and proceeds to present on the display a second ephemeral message of the set of ephemeral messages for a second transitory period of time defined by the timer, wherein the ephemeral message controller deletes the second ephemeral message upon the expiration of the second transitory period of time; wherein the second ephemeral message is deleted when the touch controller receives another haptic contact signal indicative of another gesture applied to the display during the second transitory period of time; and wherein the ephemeral message controller initiates the timer upon the display of the first ephemeral message and the display of the second ephemeral message.”

[0013] Ephemeral messaging may rely on a timer to determine the length of viewing time for content. For example, a message sender may specify the length of viewing time for the message recipient. When receiving a set of timed content to be viewed sequentially, sometimes the set viewing period for a given piece of content can exceed the viewing period desired by the message recipient. That is, the message recipient may want to terminate the current piece of content to view the next piece of content. U.S. Pat. No. 8,914,752 (Spiegel Evan et el), discloses an electronic device comprises a display and an ephemeral message controller to present on the display an ephemeral message for a transitory period of time. A touch controller identifies haptic contact on the display during the transitory period of time. The ephemeral message controller terminates the ephemeral message in response to the haptic contact. Present invention discloses an electronic device comprises a display and an ephemeral message controller to present on the display an ephemeral message for a transitory period of time. A sensor controller identifies user sense on the display or application or device during the transitory period of time. The ephemeral message controller terminates the ephemeral message in response to the receiving of one or more type of identified user sense via one or more type of sensors. Present invention also teaches multi-tabs presentation of ephemeral messages and based on switching of tab, pausing of view timer associated with each message presented on current tab and presents set of content items related to switched tab and start timers associated with each presented message related to switched tab and in the event of expiry of timer or haptic contact engagement remove ephemeral message and present next one or more (if any) ephemeral messages.

[0014] At present photo applications enables user to capture photo or record video and send to one or more contacts or feeds or stories or destinations and recipient or viewing user can view said posted content items at their time and provide reactions e.g. like, dislike, rating or emoticons at any time. Present invention enables real-time or maximum possible near real-time sharing and/or viewing and/or reacting of/on posted or broadcasted or sent one or more types of one or more content items or visual media items or news items or posts or ephemeral message(s).

[0015] Ephemeral messaging may rely on a timer to determine the length of viewing time for content. For example, a message sender may specify the length of viewing time for the message recipient. When receiving a set of timed content to be viewed sequentially, sometimes the set viewing period for a given piece of content can exceed the viewing period desired by the message recipient. That is, the message recipient may want to terminate the current piece of content to view the next piece of content. U.S. Pat. No. 8,914,752 (Spiegel Evan et el), discloses an electronic device comprises a display and an ephemeral message controller to present on the display an ephemeral message for a transitory period of time. A touch controller identifies haptic contact on the display during the transitory period of time. The ephemeral message controller terminates the ephemeral message in response to the haptic contact. Present invention discloses or teaches about various types of ephemeral stories, feeds, galleries or albums including view and completely scroll content item to remove or hide from presentation interface or remove after pre-set wait duration, load more or push to refresh or auto refresh (after pre-set interval duration) to remove currently present content and present next set of contents (if any) from presentation or user interface or enable sender to apply or pre-set view duration for set of content items and present said posted set of or one or more content items to viewers or target o intended recipients and present for pre-set duration of timer and in the event of expiry of timer remove set of presented content items or visual media items and display next set of content items or visual media items or enable sender to apply view timer for each posted content item and present more than one content items and each content item having different pre-set view duration and in the event of expiry of view duration remove each expired content item and present new content item, enable receiver to pre-set number of times of views and remove after said pre-set number of times of views or enabling viewing user to mark content item as ephemeral or non-epithermal or enabling viewing user to hold and view photo or video and in the event of releases or expiry of pre-set view timer remove viewed content and also remove thumbnail or index item.

[0016] At present GroupOn™ and other group deals sites enables group deals or Group buying, also known as collective buying, offers products and services at significantly reduced prices on the condition that a minimum number of buyers would make the purchase. Typically, these websites feature a “deal of the day”, with the deal kicking in once a set number of people agree to buy the product or service. Buyers then print off a voucher to claim their discount at the retailer. Many of the group-buying sites work by negotiating deals with local merchants and promising to deliver a higher foot count in exchange for better prices. Present invention enables one or more types of mass user action(s) including participate in mass deals, buy or make order, view and like & review movie trailer release first time, download, install & register application, listen first time launched music, buy curate product, buy latest technology products, subscribe services, like and comment on movie song or story, buy books, view latest or top trend news or tweet or advertisement or announcement at specified date & time for particular pre-set duration of time with customized offer e.g. get points, get discounts, get free samples, view first time movie trailer, refer friends and get more discounts (like chain marketing), which mainly enables curate or verified or picked up or mas level effected but less known or first time launch products, services, mobile application to get huge traction and sells or bookings. User can get preference based or use data specific contextual push notifications or indication or can directly view from application, date & time specific presented content (advertisement, news, group deals, trailer, music, customized offers etc.) with one or more types of mass action (install, sign off mass or group deals, register, view trailer, fill survey form, like product, subscribe service etc.)

[0017] Current methods of visual media recording require that a user specify the format of the visual media—either a photograph or a video—prior to capture. Problematically, a user must determine the optimal mode for recording a given moment before the moment has occurred. Moreover, the time required to toggle between different media settings often results in a user failing to capture an experience. Snapchat U.S. Pat. No. 8,428,453 (et. el. Spiegel; Evan Thomas) discloses an electronic device includes digital image sensors to capture visual media, a display to present the visual media from the digital image sensors and a touch controller to identify haptic contact engagement, haptic contact persistence and haptic contact release on the display. A visual media capture controller alternately records the visual media as a photograph or a video based upon an evaluation of the time period between the haptic contact engagement and the haptic contact release. A device may include a media application to capture digital photos or digital video. In many cases, the application needs to be configured into a photo-specific mode or video-specific mode. Switching between modes may cause delays in capturing a scene of interest. Further, multiple inputs may be needed thereby causing further delay. Improvements in media applications may therefore be needed. Facebook U.S. Pat. No. 9,258,480 discloses techniques to selectively capture media using a single user interface element are described. In one embodiment, an apparatus may comprise a touch controller, a visual media capture component, and a storage component. The touch controller may be operative to receive a haptic engagement signal. The visual media capture component may be operative to be configured in a capture mode based on whether a haptic disengagement signal is received by the touch controller before expiration of a first timer, the capture mode one of a photo capture mode or video capture mode, the first timer started in response to receiving the haptic engagement signal, the first timer configured to expire after a first preset duration. The storage component may be operative to store visual media captured by the visual media capture component in the configured capture mode. Users of client devices often use one or more messaging applications to send messages to other users associated with client devices. The messages include a variety of content ranging from text to images to videos. However, the messaging applications often provide the user with a cumbersome interface that requires users to perform multiple user interactions with multiple user interface elements or icons in order to capture images or videos and send the captured images or videos to a contact or connection associated with the user. If a user simply wishes to quickly capture a moment with an image or video and send to another user, typically the user must click through multiple interfaces to take the image/video, select the user to whom it will be sent, and initiate the sending process. It would instead be beneficial for a messaging application to present a user interface to a user allowing the user to send images and videos to other users based on as few as possible user interactions with one or more of the user interface elements. Facebook U.S. patent application Ser. No. 14/561,733 discloses a user interacts with a messaging application on a client device to capture and send images to contacts or connections of the user, with a single user interaction. The messaging application installed on the client device, presents to the user a user interface. The user interface includes a camera view and a face tray including contact icons. On receiving a single user interaction with a contact icon in the face tray, the messaging application captures an image including the current camera view presented to the user, and sends the captured image to the contact represented by the contact icon. In another example, the messaging application may receive a single user interaction with a contact icon for a threshold period of time, and may capture a video for the threshold period of time, and send the captured video to the contact. U.S. patent application Ser. No. 15/079,836 (et. El. Yogesh Rathod) discloses devices are configured to capture and share media based on user touch and other interaction. Functional labels show the user the operation being undertaken for any media captured. For example, functional labels may indicate a group of receivers, type of media, media sending method, media capture or sending delay, media persistence time, discrimination type and threshold for capturing different types of media, etc., all customizable by the user or auto-generated. Media is selectively captured and broadcast to receivers in accordance with the configuration of the functional label. A user may engage the device and activate the functional label through a single haptic engagement, allowing highly-specific media capture and sharing through a single touch or other action, without having to execute several discrete actions for capture, sending, formatting, notifying, deleting, storing, etc. Some of the said prior arts teach about single mode capturing of photo or video and some of the prior arts disclose presenting contact(s) or group(s) specific visual media capture controller control or label and/or icon or image and one tap photo capturing or video recording and optionally previewing and auto sending to said contact specific visual media capture controller control or label and/or icon or image associated contact(s) or group(s). Present invention enables multi-tasking visual media capture controller control or label and/or icon or image including selecting front or back camera mode, capturing photo or start recording video and sop while further tap on icon or recording pre-set duration video or stop before pre-set duration of video or remove pre-set duration of video and capture as per user need, optionally preview or preview for pre-set duration, auto send to said visual media capture controller control or label and/or icon or image associated or pre-configured contact(s) or group(s) or destination(s) and view said visual media capture controller control or label and/or icon or image associated or pre-configured contact(s) or group(s) or destination(s) specific received content items or view pre-configured one or more interfaces and optionally via status (e.g. online or offline, last seen, manual status, received or not-received or read or not read sent or posted content items) or view reactions of visual media capture controller control or label and/or icon or image associated or pre-configured contact(s) or group(s) or destination(s).

[0018] At present many web sites and applications provides check-in functionality to enable user to automatically publish or share user's current checked-in place to contacts of user and some of the websites and applications enables user to provide user's status or updated status, which will automatically publish or present to contacts of user. Facebook™ provides Activity/feeling option, which enables user to select from list one or more type of feelings and activities from list which automatically publish to connections of user via news feed. U.S. Pat. No. 8,423,622 (et. El. Neeraj Jhanji) teaches systems for “sharing current location information among users by using relationship information stored in a database, the method comprising: a) receiving data sent from a sender's communication device, the data containing self-declared location information indicating a physical location of the sender at the time the sender sent the data determined without the aid of automatic location determination technology; b) determining from the data the sender's identity and based on the sender's identity and the relationship information stored in the database, determining a plurality of users associated with the sender and who have agreed to receive messages about the sender, each of the plurality of users having a communication device; c) wherein the data sent from the sender's communication device does not contain an indication of contact information of said plurality of users; and d) sending a notification message to the communication devices of, among the users, only the determined users, the notification message containing the sender's self-declared location information. All these methods and systems enables user to manually provide or select one or more types of status, but none of these teaches auto identifying, preparing and generating and presenting user's status based on user's supplied data including image (via scanning, capturing, selecting), user's voice, and/or user related data including user device's current location or place, user profile (age, gender, various dates & times.

[0019] At present Snapchat™ enable's to provide geo-location based emoji and customized emoji or photo filter, but none of these teaches generating and presenting cartoon or emoji or avatar based on auto generated user's status i.e. based on plurality of factors including scanning or providing image via camera display screen and/or user's voice and/or user and connected users' data (current location, date & time) and identification of user's related activities, actions, events, entities, and transactions.

[0020] At present photo applications enables user to capture and share visual media in plurality of ways. But user has to each time start camera application and each time start recording of video which will takes time. Present invention suggests always on camera (when user's intention to take visual media based on recognition of particular type of pre-defined user's eye gaze) and auto start video (even if user is not ready to take proper scene) and then enable user to trim unnecessary part and mark as start of video and mark as end of one or more videos and enable to capture one or more photos and share all or one or more or preset or default or updated one or more contacts and/or one or more types of destination(s) (make it one or more types of ephemeral or non-ephemeral and/or real-time viewing based on setting(s)) and/or enable to record front camera video (for providing video commentaries) simultaneously with back camera video during parent video recording session. So like eye (always ON and always recoding views) user can instantly, real-time view and simultaneously record one or more videos and captures one or more photos and provide commentary with back camera video and share with one or more contacts and make it one or more types of ephemeral or non-ephemeral and/or real-time viewing.

[0021] Mobile devices, such as smartphones, are used to generate messages. The messages may be text messages, photographs (with or without augmenting text) and videos. Users can share such messages with individuals in their social network. However, there is no mechanism for sharing messages with strangers that are participating in a common event. U.S. Pat. No. 9,113,301 (et. el. Spiegel Evan—title Geo-location based event gallery) teaches a computer implemented method includes receiving a message and geo-location data for a device sending the message. It is determined whether the geo-location data corresponds to a geo-location fence associated with an event. The message is posted to an event gallery associated with the event when the geo-location data corresponds to the geo-location fence associated with the event. The event gallery is supplied in response to a request from a user. A computer implemented method, comprising: receiving a message and geo-location data for a device sending the message, wherein the message includes a photograph or a video; determining whether the geo-location data corresponds to a geo-location fence associated with an event; supplying a destination list to the device in response to the geo-location data corresponding to the geo-location fence associated with the event, wherein the destination list includes a user selectable event gallery indicium associated with the event and a user selectable entry for an individual in a social network; adding a user of the device as a follower of the event in response to the event gallery indicium being selected by the user; and supplying an event gallery in response to a request from the user, wherein the event gallery includes a sequence of photographs or videos and wherein the event gallery is available for a specified transitory period. Present invention discloses user created gallery or event including provide name, category, icon or image, schedule(s), location or place information of event or predefine characteristics or type of location (via SQL or natural query or wizard interface), define participant members criteria or characteristics including invited or added members from contact list(s) or request accepted or based on SQL or natural query or wizard and define viewers criteria or characteristics and define presentation or feed type. Based on auto starting or manually started by creator or authorized user(s) and said provided settings and information, in the event of matching of said defined target criteria specific including schedule(s) and/or location(s) and/or authorization matching with user device current location or type or category of location and/or user device current date & time and/or user identity or type of user based on user data or user profile, system presents one or more visual media capture controller control or icon and/or label on user device display or camera screen display or device camera for enabling user to alerting, notifying, capturing, recording, storing, previewing, and autos sending to visual media capture controller control or icon and/or label associated created one or more galleries or events or folders or visual stories and/or one or more types of destination(s) and/or contact(s) and/or group(s).

[0022] At present online application stores, web sites, search engine and platform enables user to search, match view details, select, if paid then make payment, download, install one or more application at user device and access them by tapping on individual application icon. U.S. Pat. No. 8,099,332 discloses methods that include the actions of receiving a touch input to access an application management interface on a mobile device; presenting an application management interface; receiving one or more inputs within the application management interface including an input to install a particular application; installing the selected application; and presenting the installed application. At present there is plurality of augmented reality applications available at application stores (e.g. Google Play Store™ or Apple App Store™) e.g. Pokemon Go™, Google Translate™, and Wikitude World Browser™ etc. User has to install each application from app store and access independently. At present there is no augmented reality applications, functions, features, controls (e.g. button), and interfaces search engine, platform and client application available. Present invention enables registered developers of network to register, verify, make listing payment (if paid), upload or listing with details and making them searchable one or more augmented reality applications, functions, features, controls (e.g. button), and interfaces and enabling user to download and install augmented reality client application and enabling searching users including advertisers of network to search, match, select, select from one or more types of categories, make payment (if paid), download, update, upgrade, install or access from server or select link(s) of one or more augmented reality applications, functions, features, controls (e.g. button), and interfaces and enable to customize or configure and associate with defined or created named publication or advertisement said one or more augmented reality applications, functions, features, controls (e.g. button), and interfaces and provide publication criteria including provide object criteria including object model(s), so when user scan said object then auto present said one or more augmented reality applications, functions, features, controls (e.g. button), and interfaces related to said user or advertiser or publisher and/or target audience criteria, so user data match with said target criteria then present one or more augmented reality applications, functions, features, controls (e.g. button), and interfaces and/or target location(s) or place(s) or defined location(s) based on structured query language (SQL), natural query and step by step wizard to define location(s) type(s), categories & filters (e.g. all shops related to particular brand, all flower seller—system identifies based on pre-stored categories, types, tags, keywords, taxonomy, associated information associated with location or place or point of interest or spot or location point or location or each identified or updated places or point of interests or spots or location points on map of world or databases or storage mediums of locations or places, so when user device monitored current location is matched with or near to said target location or place then auto present said one or more augmented reality applications, functions, features, controls (e.g. button), and interfaces and any combination thereof.

[0096] The following presents some of the limited details about various technologies, technical terms used in or useful in understanding various inventions.

[0097] Eye tracking is the process of measuring either the point of gaze (where one is looking) or the motion of an eye relative to the head. An eye tracker is a device for measuring eye positions and eye movement. Eye trackers are used in research on the visual system, in psychology, in psycholinguistics, marketing, as an input device for human-computer interaction, and in product design. There are a number of methods for measuring eye movement. The most popular variant uses video images from which the eye position is extracted. Other methods use search coils or are based on the electrooculogram.

[0098] Tracker types: Eye trackers measure rotations of the eye in one of several ways, but principally they fall into three categories: (i) measurement of the movement of an object (normally, a special contact lens) attached to the eye, (ii) optical tracking without direct contact to the eye, and (iii) measurement of electric potentials using electrodes placed around the eyes.

[0099] Eye-attached tracking: The first type uses an attachment to the eye, such as a special contact lens with an embedded mirror or magnetic field sensor, and the movement of the attachment is measured with the assumption that it does not slip significantly as the eye rotates. Measurements with tight fitting contact lenses have provided extremely sensitive recordings of eye movement, and magnetic search coils are the method of choice for researchers studying the dynamics and underlying physiology of eye movement. It allows the measurement of eye movement in horizontal, vertical and torsion directions.

[0100] Optical tracking: An eye-tracking head-mounted display. Each eye has an LED light source (gold-color metal) on the side of the display lens, and a camera under the display lens. The second broad category uses some non-contact, optical method for measuring eye motion. Light, typically infrared, is reflected from the eye and sensed by a video camera or some other specially designed optical sensor. The information is then analyzed to extract eye rotation from changes in reflections. Video-based eye trackers typically use the corneal reflection (the first Purkinje image) and the center of the pupil as features to track over time. A more sensitive type of eye tracker, the dual-Purkinje eye tracker, uses reflections from the front of the cornea (first Purkinje image) and the back of the lens (fourth Purkinje image) as features to track. A still more sensitive method of tracking is to image features from inside the eye, such as the retinal blood vessels, and follow these features as the eye rotates. Optical methods, particularly those based on video recording, are widely used for gaze tracking and are favored for being non-invasive and inexpensive.

[0101] Technologies and techniques: The most widely used current designs are video-based eye trackers. A camera focuses on one or both eyes and records their movement as the viewer looks at some kind of stimulus. Most modern eye-trackers use the center of the pupil and infrared/near-infrared non-collimated light to create corneal reflections (CR). The vector between the pupil center and the corneal reflections can be used to compute the point of regard on surface or the gaze direction. A simple calibration procedure of the individual is usually needed before using the eye tracker.

[0102] The proximity sensor is common on most smart-phones, the ones that have a touchscreen. This is because the primary function of a proximity sensor is to disable accidental touch events. The most common scenario being—The ear coming in contact with the screen and generating touch events, while on a call. Proximity Sensor is interrupt based (NOT polling). This means that we get a proximity event only when the proximity changes (either NEAR to FAR or FAR to NEAR).

[0103] Gyroscope sensor helps in identifying rate of rotation around the x, y and z axis. It's needed in VR (virtual reality). Accelerometer sensor identifies acceleration force along the x, y and z axis (including gravity). Needed to measure any motion inputs like games. Proximity sensor is used to disable accidental touch events. The most common scenario is the ear coming in contact with the screen, while on a call. Compass sensor is a magnetometer which measures the strength and direction of magnetic fields.

[0104] Accelerometers in mobile phones are used to detect the orientation of the phone. The gyroscope, or gyro for short, adds an additional dimension to the information supplied by the accelerometer by tracking rotation or twist.

[0105] An accelerometer measures linear acceleration of movement, while a gyro on the other hand measures the angular rotational velocity. Both sensors measure rate of change; they just measure the rate of change for different things. In practice, that means that an accelerometer will measure the directional movement of a device but will not be able to resolve its lateral orientation or tilt during that movement accurately unless a gyro is there to fill in that info.

[0106] Object recognition is a technology in the field of computer vision for finding and identifying objects in an image or video sequence. Humans recognize a multitude of objects in images with little effort, despite the fact that the image of the objects may vary somewhat in different viewpoints, in many different sizes and scales or even when they are translated or rotated. Objects can even be recognized when they are partially obstructed from view. Object recognition is a process for identifying a specific object in a digital image or video. Object recognition algorithms rely on matching, learning, or pattern recognition algorithms using appearance-based or feature-based techniques.

[0107] Face detection is a computer technology being used in a variety of applications that identifies human faces in digital images. Face detection also refers to the psychological process by which humans locate and attend to faces in a visual scene.

[0108] Object detection is a computer technology related to computer vision and image processing that deals with detecting instances of semantic objects of a certain class (such as humans, buildings, or cars) in digital images and videos. Well-researched domains of object detection include face detection and pedestrian detection. Object detection has applications in many areas of computer vision, including image retrieval and video surveillance. It is used in face detection and face recognition. It is also used in tracking objects, for example tracking a ball during a football match, tracking movement of a cricket bat, tracking a person in a video.

[0109] Optical character recognition (also optical character reader, OCR) is the mechanical or electronic conversion of images of typed, handwritten or printed text into machine-encoded text, whether from a scanned document, a photo of a document, a scene-photo (for example the text on signs and billboards in a landscape photo) or from subtitle text superimposed on an image (for example from a television broadcast). It is widely used as a form of information entry from printed paper data records, whether passport documents, invoices, bank statements, computerized receipts, business cards, mail, printouts of static-data, or any suitable documentation. It is a common method of digitizing printed texts so that they can be electronically edited, searched, stored more compactly, displayed on-line, and used in machine processes such as cognitive computing, machine translation, (extracted) text-to-speech, key data and text mining. OCR is a field of research in pattern recognition, artificial intelligence and computer vision.

[0110] Computer vision is an interdisciplinary field that deals with how computers can be made to gain high-level understanding from digital images or videos. From the perspective of engineering, it seeks to automate tasks that the human visual system can do.

[0111] Computer vision tasks include methods for acquiring, processing, analyzing and understanding digital images, and in general, deal with the extraction of high-dimensional data from the real world in order to produce numerical or symbolic information, e.g., in the forms of decisions. Understanding in this context means the transformation of visual images (the input of the retina) into descriptions of the world that can interface with other thought processes and elicit appropriate action. This image understanding can be seen as the disentangling of symbolic information from image data using models constructed with the aid of geometry, physics, statistics, and learning theory.

[0112] As a scientific discipline, computer vision is concerned with the theory behind artificial systems that extract information from images. The image data can take many forms, such as video sequences, views from multiple cameras, or multi-dimensional data from a medical scanner. As a technological discipline, computer vision seeks to apply its theories and models for the construction of computer vision systems.

[0113] Sub-domains of computer vision include scene reconstruction, event detection, video tracking, object recognition, object pose estimation, learning, indexing, motion estimation, and image restoration.

[0114] The fields most closely related to computer vision are image processing, image analysis and machine vision.

[0115] Image analysis is the extraction of meaningful information from images; mainly from digital images by means of digital image processing techniques. Image analysis tasks can be as simple as reading bar coded tags or as sophisticated as identifying a person from their face.

[0116] Speech recognition (SR) is the inter-disciplinary sub-field of computational linguistics that develops methodologies and technologies that enables the recognition and translation of spoken language into text by computers. It is also known as “automatic speech recognition” (ASR), “computer speech recognition”, or just “speech to text” (STT).

[0117] Some SR systems use “training” (also called “enrollment”) where an individual speaker reads text or isolated vocabulary into the system. The system analyzes the person's specific voice and uses it to fine-tune the recognition of that person's speech, resulting in increased accuracy. Systems that do not use training are called “speaker independent” systems. Systems that use training are called “speaker dependent”.

[0118] Speech recognition applications include voice user interfaces such as voice dialing (e.g. “Call home”), call routing (e.g. “I would like to make a collect call”), domotic appliance control, search (e.g. find a podcast where particular words were spoken), simple data entry (e.g., entering a credit card number), preparation of structured documents (e.g. a radiology report), speech-to-text processing (e.g., word processors or emails), and aircraft (usually termed Direct Voice Input). The term voice recognition or speaker identification refers to identifying the speaker, rather than what they are saying. Recognizing the speaker can simplify the task of translating speech in systems that have been trained on a specific person's voice or it can be used to authenticate or verify the identity of a speaker as part of a security process.

[0119] A barcode is an optical, machine-readable, representation of data; the data usually describes something about the object that carries the barcode. Originally barcodes systematically represented data by varying the widths and spacings of parallel lines, and may be referred to as linear or one-dimensional (1D). Later two-dimensional (2D) codes were developed, using rectangles, dots, hexagons and other geometric patterns in two dimensions, usually called barcodes although they do not use bars as such. Barcodes originally were scanned by special optical scanners called barcode readers. Later applications software became available for devices that could read images, such as smartphones with cameras.

[0120] QR code (abbreviated from Quick Response Code) is the arcode is a machine-readable optical label that contains information about the item to which it is attached. A QR code uses four standardized encoding modes (numeric, alphanumeric, byte/binary, and kanji) to efficiently store data; extensions may also be used. The QR code system became popular outside the automotive industry due to its fast readability and greater storage capacity compared to standard UPC barcodes. Applications include product tracking, item identification, time tracking, document management, and general marketing. A QR code consists of black squares arranged in a square grid on a white background, which can be read by an imaging device such as a camera, and processed using Reed-Solomon error correction until the image can be appropriately interpreted. The required data are then extracted from patterns that are present in both horizontal and vertical components of the image.

[0121] In computer science and information science, ontology is a formal naming and definition of the types, properties, and interrelationships of the entities that really or fundamentally exist for a particular domain of discourse. It is thus a practical application of philosophical ontology, with taxonomy. The core meaning within computer science is a model for describing the world that consists of a set of types, properties, and relationship types. There is also generally an expectation that the features of the model in an ontology should closely resemble the real world (related to the object). Common components of ontologies include: Individuals-Instances or objects (the basic or “ground level” objects), Classes—Sets, collections, concepts, classes in programming, types of objects, or kinds of things, Attributes—Aspects, properties, features, characteristics, or parameters that objects (and classes) can have, Relations—Ways in which classes and individuals can be related to one another, Function terms—Complex structures formed from certain relations that can be used in place of an individual term in a statement, Restrictions—Formally stated descriptions of what must be true in order for some assertion to be accepted as input, Rules—Statements in the form of an if-then (antecedent-consequent) sentence that describe the logical inferences that can be drawn from an assertion in a particular form, Axioms—Assertions (including rules) in a logical form that together comprise the overall theory that the ontology describes in its domain of application, Events—The changing of attributes or relations. Ontologies are commonly encoded using ontology languages. A domain ontology (or domain-specific ontology) represents concepts which belong to part of the world. Particular meanings of terms applied to that domain are provided by domain ontology. For example, the word card has many different meanings. An ontology about the domain of poker would model the “playing card” meaning of the word, while an ontology about the domain of computer hardware would model the “punched card” and “video card” meanings.

[0122] A geo-fence is a virtual perimeter for a real-world geographic area. A geo-fence could be dynamically generated—as in a radius around a store or point location, or a geo-fence can be a predefined set of boundaries, like school attendance zones or neighborhood boundaries.

[0123] The use of a geo-fence is called geo-fencing, and one example of usage involves a location-aware device of a location-based service (LBS) user entering or exiting a geo-fence. This activity could trigger an alert to the device's user as well as messaging to the geo-fence operator. This info, which could contain the location of the device, could be sent to a mobile telephone or an email account. Geo-fencing, used with child location services, can notify parents if a child leaves a designated area. Geo-fencing used with locationized firearms can allow those firearms to fire only in locations where their firing is permitted, thereby making them unable to be used elsewhere. Geo-fencing is critical to telematics. It allows users of the system to draw zones around places of work, customer's sites and secure areas. These geo-fences when crossed by an equipped vehicle or person can trigger a warning to the user or operator via SMS or Email. In some companies, geo-fencing is used by the human resource department to monitor employees working in special locations especially those doing field works. Using a geofencing tool, an employee is allowed to log his attendance using a GPS-enabled device when within a designated perimeter. Other applications include sending an alert if a vehicle is stolen and notifying rangers when wildlife stray into farmland. Geofencing, in a security strategy model, provides security to wireless local area networks. This is done by using predefined borders, e.g., an office space with borders established by positioning technology attached to a specially programmed server. The office space becomes an authorized location for designated users and wireless mobile devices.

[0124] Geo-fencing (geofencing) is a feature in a software program that uses the global positioning system (GPS) or radio frequency identification (RFID) to define geographical boundaries. A geofence is a virtual barrier. Programs that incorporate geo-fencing allow an administrator to set up triggers so when a device enters (or exits) the boundaries defined by the administrator, a text message or email alert is sent. Many geo-fencing applications incorporate Google Earth, allowing administrators to define boundaries on top of a satellite view of a specific geographical area. Other applications define boundaries by longitude and latitude or through user-created and Web-based maps. The technology has many practical uses. For example, a network administrator can set up alerts so when a hospital-owned iPad leaves the hospital grounds, the administrator can disable the device. A marketer can geo-fence a retail store in a mall and send a coupon to a customer who has downloaded a particular mobile app when the customer (and his smartphone) crosses the boundary.

[0125] Geo-fencing has many uses including: Fleet management—e.g. When a truck driver breaks from his route, the dispatcher receives an alert. Human resource management—e.g. An employee smart card will send an alert to security if an employee attempts to enter an unauthorized area.

[0126] Compliance management—e.g. Network logs record geo-fence crossings to document the proper use of devices and their compliance with established rules. Marketing—e.g. A restaurant can trigger a text message with the day's specials to an opt-in customer when the customer enters a defined geographical area. Asset management—e.g. An RFID tag on a pallet can send an alert if the pallet is removed from the warehouse without authorization. Law enforcement—e.g. An ankle bracelet can alert authorities if an individual under house arrest leaves the premises.

[0127] Rather than using a GPS location, network-based geofencing “uses carrier-grade location data to determine where SMS subscribers are located.” If the user has opted in to receive SMS alerts, they will receive a text message alert as soon as they enter the geofence range. As always, users have the ability to opt-out or stop the alerts at any time.

[0128] Beacons can achieve the same goal as app-based geofencing without invading anyone's privacy or using a lot of data. They can't pinpoint the user's exact location on a map like a geofence can, but they can still send signals when it's triggered by certain events (like entering or exiting the beacon's signal, or getting within a certain distance of the beacon)—and they can determine approximately how close the user is to the beacon, down to a few inches. Best of all, because beacons rely on bluetooth technology, they hardly use any data and won't affect the user's battery life.

[0129] Geo-location: identifying the real-world location of a user with GPS, Wi-Fi, and other sensors

[0130] Geo-fencing: taking an action when a user enters or exits a geographic area

[0131] Geo-awareness: customizing and localizing the user experience based on rough approximation of user location, often used in browsers

[0132] Augmented reality (AR) is a live direct or indirect view of a physical, real-world environment whose elements are augmented (or supplemented) by computer-generated sensory input such as sound, video, graphics or GPS data. It is related to a more general concept called mediated reality, in which a view of reality is modified (possibly even diminished rather than augmented) by a computer. As a result, the technology functions by enhancing one's current perception of reality. By contrast, virtual reality replaces the real world with a simulated one. Augmentation is conventionally in real time and in semantic context with environmental elements, such as sports scores on TV during a match. With the help of advanced AR technology (e.g. adding computer vision and object recognition) the information about the surrounding real world of the user becomes interactive and digitally manipulable. Information about the environment and its objects is overlaid on the real world. This information can be virtual or real, e.g. seeing other real sensed or measured information such as electromagnetic radio waves overlaid in exact alignment with where they actually are in space. Augmented reality brings out the components of the digital world into a person's perceived real world. One example is an AR Helmet for construction workers which displays information about the construction sites.

[0133] Hardware components for augmented reality are: processor, display, sensors and input devices. Modern mobile computing devices like smartphones and tablet computers contain these elements which often include a camera and MEMS sensors such as accelerometer, GPS, and solid state compass, making them suitable AR platforms.

[0134] Various technologies are used in Augmented Reality rendering including optical projection systems, monitors, hand held devices, and display systems worn on the human body.

[0135] AR displays can be rendered on devices resembling eyeglasses. Versions include eyewear that employ cameras to intercept the real world view and re-display its augmented view through the eye pieces and devices in which the AR imagery is projected through or reflected off the surfaces of the eyewear lens pieces.

[0136] Modern mobile augmented-reality systems use one or more of the following tracking technologies: digital cameras and/or other optical sensors, accelerometers, GPS, gyroscopes, solid state compasses, RFID and wireless sensors. These technologies offer varying levels of accuracy and precision. Most important is the position and orientation of the user's head. Tracking the user's hand(s) or a handheld input device can provide a 6DOF interaction technique

[0137] Techniques include speech recognition systems that translate a user's spoken words into computer instructions and gesture recognition systems that can interpret a user's body movements by visual detection or from sensors embedded in a peripheral device such as a wand, stylus, pointer, glove or other body wear. Some of the products which are trying to serve as a controller of AR Headsets include Wave by Seebright Inc. and Nimble by Intugine Technologies.

[0138] The computer analyzes the sensed visual and other data to synthesize and position augmentations.

[0139] A key measure of AR systems is how realistically they integrate augmentations with the real world. The software must derive real world coordinates, independent from the camera, from camera images. That process is called image registration which uses different methods of computer vision, mostly related to video tracking. Many computer vision methods of augmented reality are inherited from visual odometry. Usually those methods consist of two parts.

[0140] First detect interest points, or fiducial markers, or optical flow in the camera images. First stage can use feature detection methods like corner detection, blob detection, edge detection or thresholding and/or other image processing methods. The second stage restores a real world coordinate system from the data obtained in the first stage. Some methods assume objects with known geometry (or fiducial markers) present in the scene. In some of those cases the scene 3D structure should be precalculated beforehand. If part of the scene is unknown simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) can map relative positions. If no information about scene geometry is available, structure from motion methods like bundle adjustment are used. Mathematical methods used in the second stage include projective (epipolar) geometry, geometric algebra, rotation representation with exponential map, kalman and particle filters, nonlinear optimization, robust statistics.

[0141] Augmented Reality Markup Language (ARML) is a data standard developed within the Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC), which consists of an XML grammar to describe the location and appearance of virtual objects in the scene, as well as ECMAScript bindings to allow dynamic access to properties of virtual objects.

[0142] To enable rapid development of Augmented Reality Application, some software development kits (SDK) have emerged. A few SDK such as CloudRidAR leverage cloud computing for performance improvement. Some of the well known AR SDKs are offered by Vuforia, ARToolKit, Catchoom CraftAR Mobinett AR, Wikitude, Blippar Layar, and Meta.

[0143] Handheld displays employ a small display that fits in a user's hand. All handheld AR solutions to date opt for video see-through. Initially handheld AR employed fiducial markers,[48] and later GPS units and MEMS sensors such as digital compasses and six degrees of freedom accelerometer-gyroscope. Today SLAM markerless trackers such as PTAM are starting to come into use. Handheld display AR promises to be the first commercial success for AR technologies. The two main advantages of handheld AR is the portable nature of handheld devices and ubiquitous nature of camera phones.

[0144] AR is used to integrate print and video marketing. Printed marketing material can be designed with certain “trigger” images that, when scanned by an AR enabled device using image recognition, activate a video version of the promotional material. A major difference between Augmented Reality and straight forward image recognition is that you can overlay multiple media at the same time in the view screen, such as social media share buttons, in-page video even audio and 3D objects. Traditional print only publications are using Augmented Reality to connect many different types of media. AR can enhance product previews such as allowing a customer to view what's inside a product's packaging without opening it.[102] AR can also be used as an aid in selecting products from a catalog or through a kiosk. Scanned images of products can activate views of additional content such as customization options and additional images of the product in its use. In educational settings, AR has been used to complement a standard curriculum. Text, graphics, video and audio were superimposed into a student's real time environment. Textbooks, flashcards and other educational reading material contained embedded “markers” or triggers that, when scanned by an AR device, produced supplementary information to the student rendered in a multimedia format. Augmented reality technology enhanced remote collaboration, allowing students and instructors in different locales to interact by sharing a common virtual learning environment populated by virtual objects and learning materials. The gaming industry embraced AR technology. A number of games were developed for prepared indoor environments, such as AR air hockey, collaborative combat against virtual enemies, and AR-enhanced pool-table games. Augmented reality allowed video game players to experience digital game play in a real world environment. Companies and platforms like Niantic and LyteShot emerged as major augmented reality gaming creators. Niantic is notable for releasing the record-breaking Pokémon Go game. Travelers used AR to access real time informational displays regarding a location, its features and comments or content provided by previous visitors. Advanced AR applications included simulations of historical events, places and objects rendered into the landscape. AR applications linked to geographic locations presented location information by audio, announcing features of interest at a particular site as they became visible to the user. AR systems can interpret foreign text on signs and menus and, in a user's augmented view, re-display the text in the user's language. Spoken words of a foreign language can be translated and displayed in a user's view as printed subtitles. Augmented GeoTravel application displays information about users' surroundings in a mobile camera view. The application calculates users' current positions by using the Global Positioning System (GPS), a compass, and an accelerometer and accesses the Wikipedia data set to provide geographic information (e.g. longitude, latitude, distance), history, and contact details of points of interest. Augmented GeoTravel overlays the virtual 3-dimensional (3D) image and its information on real-time view.

[0145] An augmented reality development framework utilizes image recognition and tracking, and geolocation technologies. For location-based augmented reality, the position of objects on the screen of the mobile device is calculated using the user's position (by GPS or Wifi), the direction in which the user is facing (by using the compass) and accelerometer.

[0146] Smartglasses or smart glasses are wearable computer glasses that add information alongside or to what the wearer sees. Typically this is achieved through an optical head-mounted display (OHMD) or embedded wireless glasses with transparent heads-up display (HUD) or augmented reality (AR) overlay that has the capability of reflecting projected digital images as well as allowing the user to see through it, or see better with it. While early models can perform basic tasks, such as just serve as a front end display for a remote system, as in the case of smartglasses utilizing cellular technology or Wi-Fi, modern smart glasses are effectively wearable computers which can run self-contained mobile apps. Some are handsfree that can communicate with the Internet via natural language voice commands, while other use touch buttons.

[0147] Like other computers, smartglasses may collect information from internal or external sensors. It may control or retrieve data from other instruments or computers. It may support wireless technologies like Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, and GPS. While a smaller number of models run a mobile operating system and function as portable media players to send audio and video files to the user via a Bluetooth or WiFi headset. Some smartglasses models, also feature full lifelogging and activity tracker capability.

[0148] Such smartglasses devices may also have all the features of a smartphone. Some also have activity tracker functionality features (also known as “fitness tracker”) as seen in some GPS watches.

[0234] FIG. 1 is a network diagram depicting a network system 100 having a client-server architecture configured for exchanging data over a network, according to one embodiment. For example, the network system 100 may be a messaging system where clients may communicate and exchange data within the network system 100. The data may pertain to various functions (e.g., sending and receiving ephemeral or non-ephemeral messages, logging, user activities, actions, events, transactions, senses, behavior, status, receiving user profile, privacy settings, preferences, access conditions & rules, ephemeral settings, rules & conditions, sensor data from one or more types of user device sensors, indications or notifications, text and media communication, media items, and receiving search query including keywords, rules, preferences & Boolean operators, object criteria including object models, keywords & conditions, search result, supplied object criteria and target criteria specific visual media advertisements, created configuration of gallery or story or event, configuration of visual media capture controller, scanned object, supplied scanned objects and associated user actions or controls or interfaces or applications, user actions or controls or interfaces or applications from 3^rd parties developers or providers for augment reality platform or portal or service, provided schedules, user related keywords) associated with the network system 100 and its users. Although illustrated herein as client-server architecture, other embodiments may include other network architectures, such as peer-to-peer or distributed network environments.

[0235] A platform, in an example, includes a server 110 which includes various applications describe in detail in 236, and may provide server-side functionality via a network 125 (e.g., the Internet) to one or more clients. The one or more clients may include users that utilize the network system 100 and, more specifically, the server applications 236, to exchange data over the network 125. These operations may include transmitting, receiving (communicating), and processing data to, from, and regarding content and users of the network system 100. The data may include, but is not limited to, content and user data such as shared or broadcasted visual media, user profiles, user status, user location or checked-in place, search queries, saved search results or bookmarks, privacy settings, preferences, created events, feeds, stories related settings & preferences, user contacts, connections, groups, networks, opt-in contacts, followed feeds, stories & hashtag, following users & followers, user logs of user's activities, actions, events, transactions messaging content, shared or posted contents or one or more types of media including text, photo, video, edited photo or video e.g. applied one or more photo filters, lenses, emoticons, overlay drawings or text, messaging attributes or properties, media attributes or properties, client device information, geolocation information, and social network information, among others.

[0236] In various embodiments, the data exchanges within the network system 100 may be dependent upon user-selected functions available through one or more client or user interfaces (UIs). The UIs may be associated with a client machine, such as mobile devices or one or more types of computing device 130, 135, 140. The mobile devices e.g. 130 and 135 may be in communication with the server application(s) 236 via an application server 199. The mobile devices e.g. 130, 135 include wireless communication components, and audio and optical components for capturing various forms of media including photos and videos as described with respect to FIG. 2.

[0237] The server messaging application 236, an application program interface (API) server is coupled to, and provides programmatic interface to the application server 199. The application server 199 hosts the server application(s) 236. The application server 199 is, in turn, shown to be coupled to one or more database servers 198 that facilitate access to one or more databases 199.

[0301] FIG. 6 (C) illustrates processing operations associated with single mode visual media capture embodiment of the invention. FIG. 6 (D) illustrates the exterior of an electronic device implementing single mode visual media capture. FIG. 2 (278) illustrates components of an electronic device implementing single mode visual media capture in accordance with the invention. According to one embodiment of the present invention, in the event of detection of device stabilization and in the event of receiving of haptic contact engagement capture photo or in the event of detection of device movement and in the event of receiving of haptic contact engagement start recording of video. A stabilization parameter of the mobile device is determined using a movement sensor. It is determined whether the stabilization parameter is greater than or equal to a stabilization threshold. An image of the scene in camera display screen is captured using the mobile device if the stabilization parameter is greater than or equal to the stabilization threshold and receiving of haptic contact engagement signal from touch controller 215 or star recording of video if the stabilization parameter is less than the stabilization threshold and receiving of haptic contact engagement signal from touch controller 215.

[0302] FIG. 2 (278) illustrates an electronic device 200 implementing operations of the invention. In one embodiment, the electronic device 200 is a smartphone with a processor 230 in communication with a memory 236. The processor 230 may be a central processing unit and/or a graphics processing unit. The memory 236 is a combination of flash memory and random access memory. The memory 236 stores a visual media capture controller 278 to implement operations of the invention. The visual media capture controller 278 includes executable instructions to alternately record a photograph or a video based upon the processing of device stability and haptic signals, as discussed below.

[0303] The visual media controller 278 interacts with a photograph library controller 294, which includes executable instructions to store, organize and present photos 291. The photograph library controller may be a standard photograph library controller known in the art. The visual media controller 278 also interacts with a video library controller 296, which includes executable instructions to store, organize and present videos 292. The video library controller may also be a standard video library controller known in the art.

[0304] The processor 230 is also coupled to image sensors 244. The image sensors 244 may be known digital image sensors, such as charge coupled devices. The image sensors capture visual media, which is presented on display 210. That is, in a visual media mode controlled by the visual media capture controller 278, the image sensors 244 capture visual media and present the visual media on the display 210 so that a user can observe the captured visual media.

[0305] A touch controller 215 is connected to the display 210 and the processor 230. The touch controller 215 is responsive to haptic signals applied to the display 210. In one embodiment, the visual media capture controller 278 presents a single mode input icon on the display 210. That is, the visual media capture controller 278 includes executable instructions executed by the processor to present a single mode input icon on the display 210.

[0306] The visual media capture controller 278 communicates with the processor 230 regarding haptic signals applied to the display 210, which are recorded by the touch controller 215. In one configuration, the visual media capture controller 278 processes haptic signals applied to the single mode input icon, as detailed in connection with the discussion of FIG. 6 9D), and determines whether to record a photograph or a video, as discussed below.

[0307] The electronic device 200 may also include other components commonly associated with a smartphone, such as a wireless signal processor 220, a power control circuit 225 and a global positioning system processor 235. While many of components of FIG. 2 are known in the art, new functionality is achieved through the visual media capture controller 278.

[0308] FIG. 6 (C) illustrates processing operations associated with the visual media capture controller 278. Initially, a visual media capture mode is invoked 630. For example, a user may access an application presented on display 210 to invoke a visual media capture mode or auto switch on of closed mobile device and auto present visual media capture mode or open camera display screen or open camera application (as discussed in detail in FIGS. 3 and 4). FIG. 6 (D) illustrates the exterior of electronic device 200. The figure also illustrates the display 210. The electronic device 200 is in a visual media capture mode and presents visual media 640. The display 210 also includes a single mode input icon 645.

[0309] In one embodiment, the stabilization threshold and the receiving of haptic contact engagement or tap on the single mode input icon 640 determines whether a photograph will be recorded or a video. For example, if a user initially intends to take a photograph, then user has to hold mobile device stable and the icon 645 is engaged with a haptic signal or in an embodiment tap anywhere on camera display screen. If the user decides that the visual media should instead be a video, the user has to slight move user device and engage the icon 645 and in the event of start of video user can then move or keep device stable to record video. In an embodiment If the device is stable for a specified period of time (e.g., 3 seconds) and receiving of haptic contact engagement on icon or anywhere on device, then the output of the visual media capture is determined to be photo or If the device is not stable for a specified period of time (e.g., 3 seconds) and receiving of haptic contact engagement on icon or anywhere on device, then the output of the visual media capture is determined to be video. The photo mode or video mode may be indicated on the display 210 with an icon 648. Thus, a single gesture allows the user to seamlessly transition from a photograph mode to a video mode and therefore control the media output during the recording process. This is accomplished without entering one mode or another prior to the capture sequence.

[0310] Returning to FIG. 6 (C), based on device stabilization parameter stabilization threshold is identified 631 and haptic contact engagement is identified 632. For example, the haptic contact engagement may be at icon 645 on display 210. The touch controller 215 generates haptic contact engagement signals for processing by the visual media capture controller 278 in conjunction with the processor 230. Alternately, the haptic contact may be at any location on the display 210.

[0311] The stabilization parameter is based on a motion of the camera on the x-axis, a motion of the camera on the y-axis, and a motion of the camera on the z-axis. In an embodiment the movement sensor comprises an accelerometer.

[0312] Based on monitored device stabilization parameter via device senor, stabilization threshold is identified. In the event of stabilization parameter is greater than or equal to a stabilization threshold (631—Yes) and in response to haptic contact engagement (632—Yes), photo is captured 633 and photo is store 634. If stabilization parameter is not greater than or not equal to a stabilization threshold (631—No) or in the event of stabilization parameter is less than to a stabilization threshold (635—Yes) and in response to haptic contact engagement (636—Yes), start recording of video and start timer 637 and in an embodiment stop video, store video and stop or re-initiate timer 639 in the event of expiration of pre-set timer (638—Yes). In an embodiment in the event of further identification of haptic contact engagement during or before expiration of timer then stop timer. In an embodiment identify further haptic contact engagement to stop video and store video. In an embodiment identify one or more types of users sense via one or more types of user device(s) sensor(s) including voice command to stop video and store video or hover on camera display screen or pre-defined area of camera display screen to stop video and store video or based on eye tracking system identify particular type of pre-defined eye gaze to stop video and store video. In an embodiment receiving one or more types of pre-defined device orientation data via device orientation sensor(s) then stop video, trim said changed device orientation related video part and then store video.

[0313] The video is recorded by the processor 230 operating in conjunction with the memory 236. Alternately, a still frame is taken from the video feed and is stored as a photograph in response to haptic contact engagement and then video is recorded. The timer is executed by the processor 230 under the control of the visual media capture controller 278.

[0314] In particular, a video is sent to the video library controller 296 for handling. In one embodiment, the visual media capture controller 278 includes executable instructions to prompt the video library controller to enter a video preview mode. Consequently, a user can conveniently review a recently recorded video.

[0315] In an embodiment at 633 video is recorded and a frame of video is selected and is stored as a photograph 634. As indicated, an alternate approach is to capture a still frame from the camera video feed as a photograph. Such a photograph is then passed to the photographic library controller 294 for storage. The visual media capture controller 278 may then invoke a photo preview mode to allow a user to easily view the new photograph.

[0316] In one embodiment, the visual media capture controller 278 includes executable instructions to prompt the photo library controller to enter a photo preview mode. Consequently, a user can conveniently review a recently captured photo.

[0317] In one embodiment, determining a stabilization parameter is based on a motion of the camera on the x-axis, a motion of the camera on the y-axis, and a motion of the camera on the z-axis 690, wherein the movement sensor comprises an accelerometer. Using motion-sensing technology, such as an accelerometer or a gyroscope, the stability or movement of the mobile device is determined. When the mobile device is stable, the camera automatically captures the image. When the mobile device is in movement, the camera automatically starts recording of video. This eliminates a user action to capture the image or start recording of the video. In addition, the mobile device may include a stability meter to notify the user of the current stability of the mobile device and/or camera.

[0318] Movement sensor 247 or 248 represents any suitable indicator used to determine a position and/or motion (e.g., velocity, acceleration, or any other type of motion) of one or more points of mobile device 200 and/or camera display screen e.g. 210. Movement sensor 247 or 248 may be communicatively coupled to processor 230 to communicate position and/or motion data to processor 230. Movement sensor 247 or 248 may comprise a single-axis accelerometer, a two-axis accelerometer, or a three-axis accelerometer. For example, a three-axis accelerometer measures linear acceleration in the x, y, and z directions. Movement sensor 247 or 248 may be any motion-sensing device, including a gyroscope, a global positioning system (GPS) unit 235, a digital compass, a magnetic compass, an orientation center, magnetometer, a motion sensor, rangefinder, any combination of the preceding, or any other type of device suitable to detect and/or transmit information regarding the position and/or motion of mobile device 200 and/or camera display screen e.g. 210.

[0319] In one embodiment, stabilization parameter is a value determined from the data received from movement sensor 247 or 248 and stored on memory. The data represents a change in position and/or motion to mobile device 200. Stabilization parameter may be a dataset of values (e.g., position change in X-axis, position change in Y-axis, and position change in Z-axis) or a single value. The dataset of values in stabilization parameter may reflect the change in position and/or motion of mobile device 200 on the X, Y, and Z axes. Stabilization parameter may be a function of an algorithm, of a mean, of a standard deviation, or of a variance of the data received from movement sensor 247 or 248. Stabilization parameter may also be any other suitable type of value and/or data that represents the position and/or motion of mobile device 200 or camera display screen e.g. 210.

[0320] For example, in one embodiment, application 278 receives the acceleration of mobile device 200 according to its X, Y, and Z axes. Single mode visual media capture controller application 278 stores these values as variables prevX, prevY, and prevZ. Application 278 waits a predetermined amount of time, and then receives an updated acceleration of device in the X, Y, and Z axes. Application 278 stores these values as curX, curY, and curZ. Next, application 278 determines the change in acceleration in the X, Y, and Z axes by subtracting prevX from curX, prevY from curY, and prevZ from curZ and then stores these values as difX, difY, and difZ. Finally, stabilization parameter may be determined by taking the average of the absolute value of difX, difY, and difZ. Stabilization parameter may also be determined by taking the mean, median, standard deviation, variance, or function of an algorithm of difX, difY, and difZ.

[0321] In one embodiment, stabilization threshold is a value that represents the minimum stability required for application 278 to initiate capturing the image 200 by camera display screen e.g. 210. Stabilization threshold may be a single value or a dataset, and may be a fixed number or an adaptive number. Adaptive stabilization thresholds can be a function of an algorithm, of a mean, of a standard deviation, or of a variance of the data received from movement sensor 247 or 248. Adaptive stabilization threshold may also be based on previous stabilization parameter values. For example, in one embodiment, mobile device 200 records twenty iterations of stabilization parameter. Stabilization threshold may then be determined to be one standard deviation lower than the previous twenty stabilization parameter iterations. As a new stabilization parameter is recorded, stabilization threshold will adjust its value accordingly.

The image sensors capture visual media, which is presented on display 210. The processor 230 is also coupled to one or more sensors including Orientation Sensor 237, Position Sensor 242, GPS Sensor 238, Audio sensor 245, Proximity Sensor 246, Gyroscope 247, Accelerometer 248 and other one or more types of sensors 250 including hover sensor, eye tracking system via optical sensors 240 or image sensors 244. In one embodiment, the ephemeral message controller 275 monitors signals or senses or one or more types of pre-defined equivalents of generated or updated sensor data from the one or more sensors including voice command from audio sensor 245 or particular type of eye movement from eye tracking system based on image sensors 244 or optical sensors 240 or hover signal from e.g. specific type of proximity sensor 246. If one of the pre-defined types of said senses detected or is observed by the said one or more types of sensors during the display of an ephemeral message, then the display of the existing message is terminated and a subsequent ephemeral message, if any, is displayed. In one embodiment, two types of signals or senses from sensors may be monitored. A continuous signal or senses from one or more types of sensors may be required to display a message, while an additional sensor signal or sense may operate to terminate the display of the message. For example, the viewer might instruct via voice command or hover on display or done one or more types of pre-defined eye movement. This causes the screen to display the next piece of media in the set. In one embodiment, the one or more types of pre-defined signal or senses provide by user and detected or sense by sensor to terminate a message while media viewer application or interface is open or while viewing of display 210. In another embodiment, the sensor signal or sense is any sense applied on the message itself. In one embodiment, the gesture is un-prompted (i.e., there is no prompt such as “Delete” to solicit an action from the user). In another embodiment, the gesture may be prompted (e.g., by supplying a “Delete” option on the display, which must be touched to effectuate deletion).

[0356] The electronic device 100 may also include other components commonly associated with a smartphone, such as a wireless signal processor 220, a power control circuit 225 and a global positioning system processor 242. While many of components of FIG. 2 are known in the art, new functionality is achieved through the ephemeral message controller 275.

[0357] FIG. 19 (B) illustrates processing operations associated with the ephemeral message controller 275. Initially, an ephemeral message is displayed 1920 (In an embodiment message can serve by server 110 via server module 178 or serve from client device 200 storage medium or serve from one or more sources including one or more contacts, connections, users, domains, servers, web sites, applications, user accounts, storage mediums, databases, networks, devices via one or more web services, application programming interface (API) or software development toolkit (SDK) or providing of authentication information or one or more types of communication interfaces and any combination thereof). A timer is then started 1922. The timer may be associated with the processor 230.

[0358] One or more types of user sense is/are then monitored, tracked, detected and identified 1925. If pre-defined user sense identified or detected or recognized or exists (1925—Yes), then the current message is deleted and the next message, if any, is displayed 1920. If user sense does not identified or detected or recognized or exist (1925—No), then the timer is checked 1930. If the timer has expired (1930—Yes), then the current message is deleted and the next message, if any, is displayed 1920. If the timer has not expired (1930—No), then another user sense identification or detection or recognition check is made 1925. This sequence between blocks 1925 and 1930 is repeated until one or more types of pre-defined user sense is identified or detected or recognized or the timer expires.

[0359] In an embodiment in FIG. 19 (A) illustrates processing operations associated with the ephemeral message controller 275. Initially, an ephemeral message is displayed 1910 (In an embodiment message can serve by server 110 via server module 178 or serve from client device 200 storage medium or serve from one or more sources including one or more contacts, connections, users, domains, servers, web sites, applications, user accounts, storage mediums, databases, networks, devices via one or more web services, application programming interface (API) or software development toolkit (SDK) or providing of authentication information or one or more types of communication interfaces and any combination thereof). One or more types of user sense is/are then monitored, tracked, detected and identified 1915. If pre-defined user sense identified or detected or recognized or exists (1915—Yes), then the current message is deleted and the next message, if any, is displayed 1910, then another user sense identification or detection or recognition check is made 1915. This sequence between blocks 1910 and 1915 is repeated until one or more types of pre-defined user sense is identified or detected or recognized or the timer expires.

[0360] FIG. 19 (C) illustrates the exterior of electronic device 200. The Figure also illustrates the display 210. The display 210 presents a set of ephemeral messages 1960 available for viewing. A first message 1971 may be displayed. Upon expiration of the timer, a second message 1970 is displayed. Alternately, if one or more types of pre-define user sense or user sense data or signal via one or more types of sensor is received before the timer expires the second message 1970 is displayed.

[0361] FIG. 20 illustrates processing operations associated with real-time display of ephemeral messages in accordance with an embodiment of the invention. An real-time ephemeral message controller 276 with instructions executed by a processor to: present notification(s) or indication 2005 regarding receiving of Real-time Ephemeral Message(s) (In an embodiment message can serve by server 110 via server module 178 or serve from client device 200 storage medium or serve from one or more sources including one or more contacts, connections, users, domains, servers, web sites, applications, user accounts, storage mediums, databases, networks, devices via one or more web services, application programming interface (API) or software development toolkit (SDK) or providing of authentication information or one or more types of communication interfaces and any combination thereof) in chronological order; in the event of receiving of other notification(s) 2008, pause Accept-to-View timer for pre-set period of time of all other received Notification(s) 2010; start Accept-to-View Timer of first Notification of chronological list of received Notifications (if any) 2015; in the event of Accept-to-View Timer expired 2020 remove notification and discard or remove or hide real-time ephemeral message or content or media item 2025; in the event of Haptic Contact or User Sense or click or tap on particular Notification or click on List item in inbox or auto open of notification, remove current Notification and display selected or user sense identified Notification related Real-time Ephemeral Message on the user display 2033; start view timer 2035; in the event of Haptic Contact or user sense 2045 or expiry of view timer 2050, discard or remove or hide real-time ephemeral message or content or media item 2040.

[0362] FIG. 20 illustrates a data structure for real-time ephemeral messages. FIG. 25 (A) illustrates the exterior of an electronic device implementing real-time accelerated display of ephemeral messages in accordance with the invention. A column 2062 may have a recipient user's unique identity, a column 2064 may have a sender user's unique identity, a column 2066 may have a list of messages or media items. Another column 2068 may have a list of message accept-to-view duration parameters for individual messages, wherein accept-to-view timer is a pre-set duration within which user have to accept notification or view indication or tap on notification to open & view message. Another column 2072 may have a list of message display or message view duration parameters for individual messages, wherein message display or message view duration is a pre-set duration within which user have to view said presented message and in the event of expiry of said view duration timer said message is removed and another message is presented (if any). For example user “Cindy” selects or takes visual media including photo 2510 or video 2515 and select contacts 2520 e.g. contact user [Candice] and send said visual media item 2505. The recipient user e.g. [Candice] receives and presented with said message contains said visual media item on user interface or indication list or notification list or inbox 2565. Observe in this example that the first received message user viewed and in the event of expiry of view timer, message [P1] removed, and user accepts second message notification within accept-to-view timer and in the event of acceptance of notification or tapping on indication or notification or inbox-item message is presented user and view timer started and reaming time 2074 is now e.g. 6 seconds 2510, after expiry of said remaining time of 6 seconds 2510, said presented message 2505 is removed and user is enabled to accept next message notification 2561 within next message associated accept-to-view timer 2566 or based on settings user is directly presented with next message without providing accept-to-view timer duration and in the event of next message presentation, system starts view timer or display timer, within which user have to view message and in the event of expiry of said view duration timer, system removes messages and present next message 2562 (if any). In an embodiment recipient user in real-time i.e. before expiry of view timer 2510 can provide one or more types of user reactions including like, dislike, comment, re-share or save based on sender's permission or privacy settings, report, rating on said visual media 2505. In an embodiment sender user can in real-time view said reactions 2552 from one or more recipient users (e.g. from user interface 2590 of user [Candice]'s device 2580) of said shared or sent visual media 2505. In an embodiment sender user can apply settings as discussed in FIG. 7. In an embodiment recipient user can apply settings as discussed in FIG. 8.

[0363] In the event of non-acceptance of notification or indication based on settings system remind or re-send non-accepted or pending notifications for particular pre-set number of times only and after re-sending of notifications for said particular pre-set number of times system removes message from the server 110. In an embodiment system after sending of first notification or indication about receiving message, remind or re-send non-accepted or pending notifications for particular pre-set number of times only based on identification of recipient is online, when recipient user's manual status is “available” or “online” & like, remind or re-send after pre-set interval duration, re-send when user is not muted, re-send based on sender's scheduled availability, re-send based on “Do not disturb” policy or settings of recipients including sender is allowed to send & like, re-send when recipient user is not block sender and when particular application or interface is open, and determine that user device is open and user is busy in pre-define activities including calling or attending phone call of others, busy in texting via instant messenger(s) and determine that user is not busy and currently doing non-busy pre-defined activities including playing games, browsing social networks & like. So remind or re-send notification when user is not busy. So present invention makes possible maximum real-time or near real-time sending and viewing of messages.

[0377] In another embodiment FIG. 28 illustrates processing operations associated with real-time session specific display of ephemeral messages in accordance with an embodiment of the invention. FIG. 2 illustrates an electronic device 200 implementing operations of the invention. In one embodiment, the electronic device 200 is a smartphone with a processor 230 in communication with a memory 236. The processor 230 may be a central processing unit and/or a graphics processing unit. The memory 236 is a combination of flash memory and random access memory. The memory 236 stores a Real-time or Live Ephemeral Message Session Controller and Application 283 to implement operations of the invention. The Real-time or Live Ephemeral Message Session Controller and Application includes executable instructions to real-time or live accelerate display of ephemeral messages. An ephemeral message may be a text, an image, a video, a voice, a one or more types of multi-media, augmented or edited media and the like. The display time for the ephemeral message is typically set by the message sender. However, the display time may be a default setting or a setting specified by the recipient or a setting specified by the server or a setting auto determined based on type of sender, type of receiver, determined availability of receiver, number of messages pending to view, number of message sent by particular sender, type of relationship with sender, frequency of sharing between sender and receiver & like. Regardless of the setting technique, the message is transitory.

[0378] The processor 230 is also coupled to image sensors 244. The image sensors 244 may be known digital image sensors, such as charge coupled devices. The image sensors capture visual media, which is presented on display 210.

[0379] A touch controller 215 is connected to the display 210 and the processor 230. The touch controller 215 is responsive to haptic signals applied to the display 210. In one embodiment, the Real-time or Live Ephemeral Message Session Controller 283 monitors signals from the touch controller 215. If haptic contact is observed by the touch controller 215 during the display of an ephemeral message, then the display of the existing message is terminated and a subsequent ephemeral message, if any, is displayed. In one embodiment, two haptic signals may be monitored. A continuous haptic signal may be required to display a message, while an additional haptic signal may operate to terminate the display of the message. For example, the viewer might tap the screen with a finger while maintaining haptic contact with another finger. This causes the screen to display the next piece of media in the set. In one embodiment, the haptic contact to terminate a message is any gesture applied to any location on the display 210. In another embodiment, the haptic contact is any gesture applied to the message itself. In one embodiment, the gesture is un-prompted (i.e., there is no prompt such as “Delete” to solicit an action from the user). In another embodiment, the gesture may be prompted (e.g., by supplying a “Delete” option on the display, which must be touched to effectuate deletion).

[0380] The electronic device 200 may also include other components commonly associated with a smartphone, such as a wireless signal processor 220, a power control circuit 225 and a global positioning system processor 235. While many of components of FIG. 2 are known in the art, new functionality is achieved through the Real-time or Live Ephemeral Message Session Controller 283.

[0381] FIG. 28 (A) illustrates processing operations associated with the Real-time or Live Ephemeral Message Session Controller 283. Initially, a notification is displayed 2805. In the event of expiry of accept-to view-timer associated with notification or in the event of rejection via tapping on notification associated “Reject” button or control or link or image or in the event of receiving of rejection signal or pre-defined user sense indication rejection command or instruction from user via one or more types of one or more sensors of user device(s) or haptic contact engagement on “rejection” or “cancel” or “end” button or link or image or control or pre-defined area or identification of block of sender by recipient or identification of mute by recipient or identification of “Do Not Disturb” policies or settings by recipient including not allow recipient or not falls in scheduled to receive by recipient or auto determined busy status of recipient or identification of offline status of user 2808, reject or end or cancel or miss said notification associated session 2810 OR in the event of haptic contact engagement on notification area or identification or recognition of one or more type of pre-defined user senses via one or more sensors of user device(s) or in the event of acceptance by tapping on “Accept” button or icon or link or control associated with notification or in the event of auto accept based on pre-set auto accept settings or auto accept after expiry of pre-set period of time settings or accept within pre-set accept-to-view duration timer, start session (i.e. real-time sharing or sending, receiving and viewing session) 2813. In an embodiment after starting of session receiver or sender can any time haptic contact engagement or haptic contact swipe on tap on “end” button or link or image or control or pre-defined full or part of display area or detection or recognition or receiving of one or more types of pre-defined user senses via one or more types of one or more sensors of user device(s) instructing system to “end” session 2815 then end said started 2813 session 2820. In an embodiment after starting of session 2813 allowing one or more senders to capture one or more or series or sequences of photo or video or voice or one or more types of content items or visual media items or augment or edit & send or select & send or search, select & send or auto send one or more ephemeral messages or server send received or stored one or more ephemeral messages from one or more sources or senders to one or more target recipients or requesting user or searching user or auto determined recipients and add to ephemeral message queue(s) at each intended or targeted recipient's device(s) or interface(s) for presenting said ephemeral message(s) to recipient or viewer or an ephemeral message is displayed 2828. In an embodiment after starting of session 2813 an ephemeral message is displayed 2828. A timer is then started 2830. The timer may be associated with the processor 230.

[0382] In an embodiment message 2828 or notification can serve by server 110 via server module 178 or serve from client device 200 storage medium or serve from one or more sources including one or more contacts, connections, users, domains, servers, web sites, applications, user accounts, storage mediums, databases, networks, devices via one or more web services, application programming interface (API) or software development toolkit (SDK) or providing of authentication information or one or more types of communication interfaces and any combination thereof.

[0383] In an embodiment Haptic contact is then monitored 2835. If haptic contact exists (2835—Yes), then the current message is deleted and the next message, if any, is displayed 2828. If haptic contact does not exist (2835—No), then the timer is checked 2840. If the timer has expired (2840—Yes), then the current message is deleted and the next message, if any, is displayed 2828. If the timer has not expired (2840—No), then another haptic contact check is made 2835. This sequence between blocks 2835 and 2840 is repeated until haptic contact is identified or the timer expires.

[0384] In another embodiment one or more types of pre-defined user sense(s) via one or more types of sensors (e.g. voice sensor (for detecting or recognizing voice command), image sensor (for tracking eye movement), and proximity sensor (recognizing hovering on particular area of display) as discussed in detail in FIG. 19) is/are then monitored 2835. If pre-defined user sense(s) or signal(s) detected or recognized or identified or exists (2835—Yes), then the current message is deleted and the next message, if any, is displayed 2828. If pre-defined user sense(s) or signal(s) does not detected or recognized or identified or exists (2835—No), then the timer is checked 2840. If the timer has expired (2840—Yes), then the current message is deleted and the next message, if any, is displayed 2828. If the timer has not expired (2840—No), then another user sense(s) or signal(s) check is made 2835. This sequence between blocks 2835 and 2840 is repeated until user sense(s) or signal(s) is identified or the timer expires.

[0385] FIG. 28 (B) illustrates the exterior of electronic device 200. The Figure also illustrates the display 210. The display 210 presents a set of ephemeral messages 2860 available for viewing. A first message 2871 may be displayed. Upon expiration of the timer, a second message 2870 is displayed. Alternately, if haptic contact or one or more types of pre-defined user sense(s) is received before the timer expires the second message 2870 is displayed.

[0386] In an embodiment instead of remove ephemeral messages, if message is non-ephemeral then system hide message. In another embodiment ephemeral message is conditional including enable recipient user to view message unlimited times within pre-set life duration and after expiry of said pre-set life duration remove message or allow recipient or viewing user to view message for pre-set number of times then remove message after passing said limit of viewing of message or allow recipient or viewing user to view message for pre-set number of times within pre-set life duration then remove message after expiry of said life duration or after passing said limit of viewing of message whichever is earlier.

[0387] In another embodiment FIG. 29 illustrates processing operations associated with real-time session specific display of ephemeral messages in accordance with an embodiment of the invention. FIG. 2 illustrates an electronic device 200 implementing operations of the invention. In one embodiment, the electronic device 200 is a smartphone with a processor 230 in communication with a memory 236. The processor 230 may be a central processing unit and/or a graphics processing unit. The memory 236 is a combination of flash memory and random access memory. The memory 236 stores a Real-time or Live Ephemeral Message Session Controller and Application 283 to implement operations of the invention. The Real-time or Live Ephemeral Message Session Controller and Application includes executable instructions to real-time or live accelerate display of ephemeral messages. An ephemeral message may be a text, an image, a video, a voice, a one or more types of multi-media, augmented or edited media and the like. The display time for the ephemeral message is typically set by the message sender. However, the display time may be a default setting or a setting specified by the recipient or a setting specified by the server or a setting auto determined based on type of sender, type of receiver, determined availability of receiver, number of messages pending to view, number of message sent by particular sender, type of relationship with sender, frequency of sharing between sender and receiver & like. Regardless of the setting technique, the message is transitory.

[0388] The processor 230 is also coupled to image sensors 244. The image sensors 244 may be known digital image sensors, such as charge coupled devices. The image sensors capture visual media, which is presented on display 210.

[0389] A touch controller 215 is connected to the display 210 and the processor 230. The touch controller 215 is responsive to haptic signals applied to the display 210. In one embodiment, the Real-time or Live Ephemeral Message Session Controller 283 monitors signals from the touch controller 215. If haptic contact is observed by the touch controller 215 during the display of an ephemeral message, then the display of the existing message is terminated and a subsequent ephemeral message, if any, is displayed. In one embodiment, two haptic signals may be monitored. A continuous haptic signal may be required to display a message, while an additional haptic signal may operate to terminate the display of the message. For example, the viewer might tap the screen with a finger while maintaining haptic contact with another finger. This causes the screen to display the next piece of media in the set. In one embodiment, the haptic contact to terminate a message is any gesture applied to any location on the display 210. In another embodiment, the haptic contact is any gesture applied to the message itself. In one embodiment, the gesture is un-prompted (i.e., there is no prompt such as “Delete” to solicit an action from the user). In another embodiment, the gesture may be prompted (e.g., by supplying a “Delete” option on the display, which must be touched to effectuate deletion).

[0390] The electronic device 200 may also include other components commonly associated with a smartphone, such as a wireless signal processor 220, a power control circuit 225 and a global positioning system processor 235. While many of components of FIG. 2 are known in the art, new functionality is achieved through the Real-time or Live Ephemeral Message Session Controller 283.

[0391] FIG. 29 (A) illustrates processing operations associated with the Real-time or Live Ephemeral Message Session Controller 283. Initially, in the event of starting of session start session 2913. After starting of session 2913 allowing sender or broadcaster or session starter to capture one or more or series or sequences of photo or video or voice or one or more types of content items or visual media items or augment or edit & send or select & send or search, select & send or auto send one or more ephemeral messages to one or more contacts and/or destinations. In the event of starting of session 2913 concurrently send and display notification or indication 2905 of starting of said session 2913 to one or more contacts and/or destinations selected or set by sender or session starter user. In the event of rejection via tapping on notification associated “Reject” button or control or link or image or in the event of receiving of rejection signal or pre-defined user sense indication rejection command or instruction from user via one or more types of one or more sensors of user device(s) or haptic contact engagement on “rejection” or “cancel” or “end” button or link or image or control or pre-defined area or identification of block by recipient to sender or ending of session identification of mute by recipient or identification of “Do Not Disturb” policies or settings by recipient including not allow recipient or not falls in scheduled to receive by recipient or auto determined busy status of recipient or identification of offline status of user 2908, then do not show shared or sent or broadcasted one or more types of visual media items or content items 2910 OR in the event of haptic contact engagement on notification area or identification or recognition of one or more type of pre-defined user senses via one or more sensors of user device(s) or in the event of acceptance by tapping on “Accept” button or icon or link or control associated with notification or in the event of auto accept based on pre-set auto accept settings or auto accept after expiry of pre-set period of time settings or accept within any time during session (i.e. accept any time before ending of currently started session), start presenting ephemeral message. In an embodiment after starting of session sender can any time haptic contact engagement or haptic contact swipe on tap on “end” button or link or image or control or pre-defined full or part of display area or detection or recognition or receiving of one or more types of pre-defined user senses via one or more types of one or more sensors of user device(s) instructing system to “end” 2915 session 2913 then end 2920 said started session 2913. In an embodiment after starting of session receiver can any time haptic contact engagement or haptic contact swipe on tap on “end” 2916 button or link or image or control or pre-defined full or part of display area or detection or recognition or receiving of one or more types of pre-defined user senses via one or more types of one or more sensors of user device(s) instructing system to “end” showing of ephemeral message(s) 2918. In an embodiment after accepting (2908=Yes and 2915=No and 2916=No) then an ephemeral message which is/are posted by sender from start of session 2913 (which is/are stored by server 110) is displayed 2928. A timer is then started 2930. The timer may be associated with the processor 230. In an embodiment after accepting (2908=Yes and 2915=No and 2916=No) then an ephemeral message which is/are posted by sender after accepting of said notification or indication is displayed 2928 (i.e. recipient user is not presented with contents which is posted by sender before acceptance). A timer is then started 2930. The timer may be associated with the processor 230.

[0392] In an embodiment message or notification can serve by server 110 via server module 178 or serve from client device 200 storage medium or serve from one or more sources including one or more contacts, connections, users, domains, servers, web sites, applications, user accounts, storage mediums, databases, networks, devices via one or more web services, application programming interface (API) or software development toolkit (SDK) or providing of authentication information or one or more types of communication interfaces and any combination thereof.

[0393] In an embodiment Haptic contact is then monitored 2935. If haptic contact exists (2935—Yes), then the current message is deleted and the next message, if any, is displayed 2928. If haptic contact does not exist (2935—No), then the timer is checked 2840. If the timer has expired (2940—Yes), then the current message is deleted and the next message, if any, is displayed 2928. If the timer has not expired (2940—No), then another haptic contact check is made 2935. This sequence between blocks 2935 and 2940 is repeated until haptic contact is identified or the timer expires.

[0394] In another embodiment one or more types of pre-defined user sense(s) via one or more types of sensors (e.g. voice sensor (for detecting or recognizing voice command), image sensor (for tracking eye movement), and proximity sensor (recognizing hovering on particular area of display) as discussed in detail in FIG. 19) is/are then monitored 2935. If pre-defined user sense(s) or signal(s) detected or recognized or identified or exists (2935—Yes), then the current message is deleted and the next message, if any, is displayed 2928. If pre-defined user sense(s) or signal(s) does not detected or recognized or identified or exists (2935—No), then the timer is checked 2940. If the timer has expired (2940—Yes), then the current message is deleted and the next message, if any, is displayed 2928. If the timer has not expired (2940—No), then another user sense(s) or signal(s) check is made 2935. This sequence between blocks 2935 and 2940 is repeated until user sense(s) or signal(s) is identified or the timer expires.

[0395] FIG. 29 (B) illustrates the exterior of electronic device 200. The Figure also illustrates the display 210. The display 210 presents a set of ephemeral messages 2960 available for viewing. A first message 2971 may be displayed. Upon expiration of the timer, a second message 2970 is displayed. Alternately, if haptic contact or one or more types of pre-defined user sense(s) is received before the timer expires the second message 2970 is displayed.

[0396] In an embodiment instead of remove ephemeral messages, if message is non-ephemeral then system hide message. In another embodiment ephemeral message is conditional including enable recipient user to view message unlimited times within pre-set life duration and after expiry of said pre-set life duration remove message or allow recipient or viewing user to view message for pre-set number of times then remove message after passing said limit of viewing of message or allow recipient or viewing user to view message for pre-set number of times within pre-set life duration then remove message after expiry of said life duration or after passing said limit of viewing of message whichever is earlier.

[0397] In an embodiment after accepting of session recipient can view first ephemeral message and in the event of closing of application or interface or non-viewing by recipient use (due to gap of duration between sending of first and second ephemeral message) then user is notifies about receiving of new ephemeral message.

The memory 236 stores an ephemeral message controller 277 to implement operations of the invention. The ephemeral message controller 277 includes executable instructions to accelerate display of ephemeral messages. An ephemeral message may be a text, an image, a video and the like.

[0403] The processor 230 is also coupled to image sensors 244. The image sensors 244 may be known digital image sensors, such as charge coupled devices. The image sensors capture visual media, which is presented on display 210.

[0404] A touch controller 215 is connected to the display 210 and the processor 230. The touch controller 215 is responsive to haptic signals applied to the display 210. In one embodiment, the ephemeral message controller 277 monitors signals from the touch controller 215. If receiving input associated with a scroll command, then based on the scroll command identify complete scroll-up of one or more digital content items, in response to identifying of complete scroll-up of one or more digital content items, remove complete scrolled-up one or more digital content items or if haptic swipe contact is observed by the touch controller 215 and displayed visual media item completely scrolled up over pre-defined boundaries during the display of an ephemeral message, then the display of the existing message is terminated and a subsequent ephemeral message, if any, is displayed.

[0405] In another embodiment, the haptic swipe is any gesture applied to the message itself. In one embodiment, the gesture is un-prompted (i.e., there is no prompt such as “Delete” to solicit an action from the user). In another embodiment, the gesture may be prompted (e.g., by supplying a “Delete” option on the display, which must be touched to effectuate deletion).

[0406] The electronic device 200 may also include other components commonly associated with a smartphone, such as a wireless signal processor 220, a power control circuit 225 and a global positioning system processor 235. While many of components of FIG. 2 are known in the art, new functionality is achieved through the ephemeral message controller 277.

[0407] In an embodiment FIG. 31 (A) illustrates processing operations associated with the ephemeral message controller 277. Initially, an ephemeral message is displayed 3140 (e.g. 3113 and 3118) (In an embodiment message or notification can serve by server 110 via server module 178 or serve from client device 200 storage medium or serve from one or more sources including one or more contacts, connections, users, domains, servers, web sites, applications, user accounts, storage mediums, databases, networks, devices via one or more web services, application programming interface (API) or software development toolkit (SDK) or providing of authentication information or one or more types of communication interfaces and any combination thereof). Haptic swipe is then monitored 3145. If haptic swipe leads to complete scrolling up of displayed visual media item (e.g. 3113) out of pre-defined boundary e.g. 3104 (3145—Yes), then the completely scrolled-up visual media item or message (e.g. 3113) is deleted (e.g. 3103) and the next message (e.g. 3109) 3140, if any, is appended to feed and displayed. This sequence is repeated until haptic swipe identified which leads to complete scrolling up of displayed visual media item out of pre-defined boundaries.

[0437] FIG. 2 illustrates an electronic device 200 implementing operations of the invention. In one embodiment, the electronic device 200 is a smartphone with a processor 230 in communication with a memory 236. The processor 230 may be a central processing unit and/or a graphics processing unit. The memory 236 is a combination of flash memory and random access memory. The memory 236 stores an ephemeral message controller 277 to implement operations of the invention. The ephemeral message controller 277 includes executable instructions to accelerate display of ephemeral messages. An ephemeral message may be a text, an image, a video and the like. The display time for the one or more or set of ephemeral message is/are typically set by the message sender. However, the display time may be a default setting or a setting specified by the recipient. Regardless of the setting technique, the message is transitory.

[0438] The processor 230 is also coupled to image sensors 244. The image sensors 244 may be known digital image sensors, such as charge coupled devices. The image sensors capture visual media, which is presented on display 210.

[0439] A touch controller 215 is connected to the display 210 and the processor 230. The touch controller 215 is responsive to haptic signals applied to the display 210. In one embodiment, the ephemeral message controller 277 monitors signals from the touch controller 215. If haptic contact is observed by the touch controller 215 during the display of set of ephemeral message(s), then the display of the existing message(s) is/are terminated and a subsequent set of ephemeral message(s), if any, is displayed. In one embodiment, two haptic signals may be monitored. A continuous haptic signal may be required to display a message(s), while an additional haptic signal may operate to terminate the display of the set of displayed message(s). For example, the viewer might tap the screen with a finger while maintaining haptic contact with another finger. This causes the screen to display the next set of media in the collection. In one embodiment, the haptic contact to terminate a set of message(s) is any gesture applied to any location on the display 210. In another embodiment, the haptic contact is any gesture applied to the message(s) itself. In one embodiment, the gesture is un-prompted (i.e., there is no prompt such as “Delete” to solicit an action from the user). In another embodiment, the gesture may be prompted (e.g., by supplying a “Delete” option on the display, which must be touched to effectuate deletion).

[0440] The electronic device 200 may also include other components commonly associated with a smartphone, such as a wireless signal processor 220, a power control circuit 225 and a global positioning system processor 235. While many of components of FIG. 2 are known in the art, new functionality is achieved through the ephemeral message controller 277.

[0441] FIG. 35 (B) illustrates processing operations associated with the ephemeral message controller 106. Initially, one or more or set of ephemeral message(s) is/are displayed 3532 (e.g. 3515-3509 and 3510). A timer associated with said displayed set of ephemeral message(s) is then started 3534. The timer may be associated with the processor 230.

[0442] Haptic contact is then monitored 3537. If haptic contact exists (3537—Yes), then the current one or more or set of message(s) is/are deleted and the next message, if any, is displayed 3532. If haptic contact does not exist (3537—No), then the timer is checked 3540. If the timer has expired (3540—Yes), then the current one or more or set of message(s) is/are deleted and the next one or more or set of message(s), if any, is/are displayed 3532. If the timer has not expired (3540—No), then another haptic contact check is made 3537. This sequence between blocks 3537 and 3540 is repeated until haptic contact is identified or the timer expires.

[0443] FIG. 35 (A) illustrates the exterior of electronic device 200. The Figure also illustrates the display 210. The display 210 presents a set of ephemeral messages 3532 available for viewing. A first set of message(s) 3532 may be displayed. Upon expiration of the timer, a second set of message(s) 3532 is displayed. Alternately, if haptic contact is received before the timer expires the second set of message(s) 3532 is displayed.

[0444] In an another embodiment an ephemeral message controller with instructions executed by a processor to: present on the display a first set of ephemeral content item(s) or message(s) 3552 (3535—e.g. 3524 and 3526) (In an embodiment message or notification can serve by server 110 via server module 178 or serve from client device 200 storage medium or serve from one or more sources including one or more contacts, connections, users, domains, servers, web sites, applications, user accounts, storage mediums, databases, networks, devices via one or more web services, application programming interface (API) or software development toolkit (SDK) or providing of authentication information or one or more types of communication interfaces and any combination thereof) of the collection of ephemeral content item(s) or messages(s) for a first transitory period of time defined by a timer 3354, wherein the first set of ephemeral content item(s) or messages(s) 3552 (3535—e.g. 3524 and 3526) is/are deleted when the first transitory period of time expires 3558; receive from a sensor controller a pre-defined user sense or sensor signal 3556 indicative of a gesture applied to the display during the first transitory period of time 3554; wherein the ephemeral message controller deletes the first set of ephemeral content item(s) or messages(s) 3552 (3535—e.g. 3524 and 3526) in response to the pre-defined user sense or sensor signal 3556 and proceeds to present on the display a second set of ephemeral content item(s) or messages(s) 3552 (3525—e.g. 3523 and 3528) of the collection of or identified or contextual ephemeral content item(s) or messages(s) for a second transitory period of time defined by the timer 3554, wherein the ephemeral message controller deletes the second set of ephemeral content item(s) or messages(s) 3552 (3525—e.g. 3523 and 3528) upon the expiration of the second transitory period of time 3558; wherein the second set of ephemeral content item(s) or messages(s) 3552 (3525—e.g. 3523 and 3528) is/are deleted when the sensor controller receives another pre-defined user sense or sensor signal 3556 indicative of another gesture applied to the display during the second transitory period of time 3554; and wherein the ephemeral content or message controller initiates the timer 3554 upon the display of the first set of ephemeral content item(s) or messages(s) 3552 (3535—e.g. 3524 and 3526) and the display of the second set of ephemeral content item(s) or messages(s) 3552 (3525—e.g. 3523 and 3528).

[0445] FIG. 35 (D) illustrates processing operations associated with accelerated display of ephemeral messages in accordance with an embodiment of the invention and FIG. 35 (C) illustrates the exterior of an electronic device implementing accelerated display of ephemeral messages in accordance with the invention. FIG. 2 illustrates an electronic device 200 implementing operations of the invention. In one embodiment, the electronic device 200 is a smartphone with a processor 230 in communication with a memory 236. The processor 230 may be a central processing unit and/or a graphics processing unit. The memory 236 is a combination of flash memory and random access memory. The memory 236 stores an ephemeral message controller 277 to implement operations of the invention. The ephemeral message controller 277 includes executable instructions to accelerate display of ephemeral messages. An ephemeral message may be a text, an image, a video and the like. The display time for the ephemeral message is typically set by the message sender. However, the display time may be a default setting or a setting specified by the recipient. Regardless of the setting technique, the message is transitory.

[0446] The processor 230 is also coupled to image sensors 244. The image sensors 244 may be known digital image sensors, such as charge coupled devices. The image sensors capture visual media, which is presented on display 210. The processor 230 is also coupled to one or more sensors including Orientation Sensor 237, Position Sensor 242, GPS Sensor 238, Audio sensor 245, Proximity Sensor 246, Gyroscope 247, Accelerometer 248 and other one or more types of sensors 250 including hover sensor, eye tracking system via optical sensors 240 or image sensors 244. In one embodiment, the ephemeral message controller 277 monitors signals or senses or one or more types of pre-defined equivalents of generated or updated sensor data from the one or more sensors including voice command from audio sensor 245 or particular type of eye movement from eye tracking system based on image sensors 244 or optical sensors 240 or hover signal from e.g. specific type of proximity sensor 246. If one of the pre-defined types of said senses detected or is observed by the said one or more types of sensors during the display of a set of ephemeral message(s), then the display of the existing set of message(s) is/are terminated and a subsequent set of ephemeral message(s), if any, is displayed. In one embodiment, two types of signals or senses from sensors may be monitored. A continuous signal or senses from one or more types of sensors may be required to display a set of message(s), while an additional sensor signal or sense may operate to terminate the display of the set of message(s). For example, the viewer might instruct via voice command or hover on display or done one or more types of pre-defined eye movement. This causes the screen to display the next set of media in the collection. In one embodiment, the one or more types of pre-defined signal or senses provide by user and detected or sense by sensor to terminate a message while media viewer application or interface is open or while viewing of display 210. In another embodiment, the sensor signal or sense is any sense applied on the message area itself. In one embodiment, the gesture is un-prompted (i.e., there is no prompt such as “Delete” to solicit an action from the user). In another embodiment, the gesture may be prompted (e.g., by supplying a “Delete” option on the display, which must be sensed or touched to effectuate deletion).

[0447] The electronic device 200 may also include other components commonly associated with a smartphone, such as a wireless signal processor 220, a power control circuit 225 and a global positioning system processor 242. While many of components of FIG. 2 are known in the art, new functionality is achieved through the ephemeral message controller 277.

[0448] FIG. 35 (D) illustrates processing operations associated with the ephemeral message controller 277. Initially, a set of ephemeral message(s) is/are displayed 3552 (e.g. 3535-3524 and 3526). A timer associated with displayed set of message(s) is then started 3554. The timer may be associated with the processor 230.

[0449] One or more types of user sense is/are then monitored, tracked, detected and identified 3556. If pre-defined user sense identified or detected or recognized or exists (3556—Yes), then the current set of message(s) is/are deleted and the next set of message(s) 3552 (e.g. 3525-3523 and 3528), if any, is displayed 3552. If user sense does not identified or detected or recognized or exist (3556—No), then the timer is checked 3558. If the timer has expired (3558—Yes), then the current set of message(s) (e.g. 3525-3523 and 3528) is/are deleted and the next set of message(s) (e.g. 3525-3523 and 3528), if any, is displayed 3552. If the timer has not expired (3558—No), then another user sense identification or detection or recognition check is made 3556. This sequence between blocks 3556 and 3558 is repeated until one or more types of pre-defined user sense is identified or detected or recognized or the timer expires.

[0450] FIG. 35 (C) illustrates the exterior of electronic device 200. The Figure also illustrates the display 210. The display 210 presents a set of ephemeral messages 3552 (e.g. 3535—3524 and 3525) available for viewing. A first set of message 3552 (e.g. 3535-3524 and 3525) may be displayed. Upon expiration of the timer 3558, a second set of messages 3552 (e.g. 3525—3523 and 3528) is displayed. Alternately, if one or more types of pre-define user sense or user sense data or signal via one or more types of sensor is received before the timer expires the second set of message(s) 3552 (e.g. 3525-3523 and 3528) is displayed.

[0451] FIG. 36 illustrates processing operations associated with display of ephemeral messages and based on expiration of pre-set duration of timer for scrolled-up ephemeral message (s) or media item(s), remove expired scrolled-up ephemeral message(s) or media item(s) from presented feed or set of ephemeral messages and in the event of removal of ephemeral message(s) or media item(s), load or present next available (if any) removed number equivalent or particular pre-set number of or available to present ephemeral messages in accordance with an embodiment of the invention.

[0452] A non-transitory computer readable storage medium, comprising instructions executed by a processor to: displaying a scrollable list of content items 3650 (3630—e.g. 3620 & 3622) (In an embodiment message or notification can serve by server 110 via server module 178 or serve from client device 200 storage medium or serve from one or more sources including one or more contacts, connections, users, domains, servers, web sites, applications, user accounts, storage mediums, databases, networks, devices via one or more web services, application programming interface (API) or software development toolkit (SDK) or providing of authentication information or one or more types of communication interfaces and any combination thereof); receiving input associated with a scroll command; based on the scroll command identify complete scrolled-up of one or more digital content items 3655 (3618), in response to identifying of complete scrolled-up of one or more digital content items 3655—yes (e.g. 3605 and 3615) out of pre-defined boundary 3616 of scrollable display container e.g. 210, start pre-set duration of wait timer(s) 3657 (e.g. 3608 and 3610) for each scrolled up visual media item or content item (e.g. 3605 and 3615) and in the event of expiration of pre-set duration of timer 3660 (e.g. 3608 and 3610) for each scrolled-up ephemeral message(s) or media item(s) (e.g. 3605 and 3615), remove expired timer 3660—yes related scrolled-up ephemeral message(s) or media item(s) (e.g. 3605 and 3615) from presented feed or set of ephemeral messages 3630 and in the event of removal of ephemeral message(s) or media item(s) (e.g. 3605 and 3615), load or present next available (if any) or present removed items equivalent number(s) of or particular pre-set number(s) of or available to present ephemeral messages 3650 (e.g. 3645-3640 and 3642) in accordance with an embodiment of the invention.

[0453] FIG. 2 illustrates an electronic device 200 implementing operations of the invention. In one embodiment, the electronic device 200 is a smartphone with a processor 230 in communication with a memory 236. The processor 230 may be a central processing unit and/or a graphics processing unit. The memory 236 is a combination of flash memory and random access memory. The memory 236 stores an ephemeral message controller 277 to implement operations of the invention. The ephemeral message controller 277 includes executable instructions to accelerate display of ephemeral messages. An ephemeral message may be a text, an image, a video and the like.

[0454] The processor 230 is also coupled to image sensors 244. The image sensors 244 may be known digital image sensors, such as charge coupled devices. The image sensors capture visual media, which is presented on display 210.

[0455] A touch controller 215 is connected to the display 210 and the processor 230. The touch controller 215 is responsive to haptic signals applied to the display 210. In one embodiment, the ephemeral message controller 277 monitors signals from the touch controller 215. If receiving input associated with a scroll command, then based on the scroll command identify complete scrolled-up of one or more digital content items, start timer associated with each scrolled-up visual media item or content item and in the event of expiry of said each scrolled-up visual media item or content item associated started time, remove expired timer associated complete scrolled-up one or more digital content items or if haptic swipe contact is observed by the touch controller 215 and displayed visual media item completely scrolled up over pre-defined boundaries during the display of an ephemeral message, then each scrolled-up message or visual media item or content item associated timer started and in the vent of expiration of said each timer the display of the said timer related existing message is terminated and a subsequent ephemeral message, if any, is displayed.

[0456] In another embodiment, the haptic swipe is any gesture applied to the message itself. In one embodiment, the gesture is un-prompted (i.e., there is no prompt such as “Delete” to solicit an action from the user). In another embodiment, the gesture may be prompted (e.g., by supplying a “Delete” option on the display, which must be touched to effectuate deletion).

[0457] The electronic device 200 may also include other components commonly associated with a smartphone, such as a wireless signal processor 220, a power control circuit 225 and a global positioning system processor 235. While many of components of FIG. 2 are known in the art, new functionality is achieved through the ephemeral message controller 277.

[0458] In an embodiment FIG. 36 (A) illustrates processing operations associated with the ephemeral message controller 277. Initially, an ephemeral message is displayed 3650 (e.g. 3630—3620 and 3622). Haptic swipe is then monitored 3618. If haptic swipe leads to complete scrolling up of displayed visual media item (e.g. 3605 and 3615) out of pre-defined boundary 3616 of display 210 or container 3630 (3655—Yes), then the timer associated with each scrolled-up message(s) or visual media item(s) or content item(s) is starts 3657 (e.g. timer 3608 associated with complete scrolled-up message or visual media item 3605 starts and timer 3610 associated with complete scrolled-up message or visual media item 3615 starts) and in the event of expiry of said timer 3660 (e.g. 3608 and 3610) then the completely scrolled-up visual media item or message (e.g. 3605 and 3615) is/are deleted and the next message(s) 3650 (e.g. 3645-3640 and 3642), if any, is appended to feed and displayed. This sequence is repeated until haptic swipe identified which leads to complete scrolling up of displayed visual media item out of pre-defined boundaries.

[0459] In another embodiment FIG. 36 (B) illustrates processing operations associated with the ephemeral message controller 277. Initially, an ephemeral message is displayed 3665 (e.g. 3630-3620 and 3622) (In an embodiment message or notification can serve by server 110 via server module 178 or serve from client device 200 storage medium or serve from one or more sources including one or more contacts, connections, users, domains, servers, web sites, applications, user accounts, storage mediums, databases, networks, devices via one or more web services, application programming interface (API) or software development toolkit (SDK) or providing of authentication information or one or more types of communication interfaces and any combination thereof). Haptic swipe is then monitored 3618. If haptic swipe leads to complete scrolling up of displayed visual media item (e.g. 3605 and 3615) out of pre-defined boundary 3616 of display 210 or container 3630 (3675—Yes), then the timer associated with each scrolled-up message(s) or visual media item(s) or content item(s) is starts 3677 (e.g. timer 3608 associated with complete scrolled-up message or visual media item 3605 starts and timer 3610 associated with complete scrolled-up message or visual media item 3615 starts) and before expiry of timer 3677 (e.g. 3608 and 3610) enabling user to scroll down said previously scrolled-up message(s) (e.g. 3605 and 3615) and in the event of completely scrolled-down of said previously scrolled-up message(s) (e.g. 3605 and 3615), stop & reset or initiate timer 3679 and in the event of expiry of said timer 3680 (e.g. 3608 and 3610) then the completely scrolled-up visual media item or message (e.g. 3605 and 3615) is/are deleted and the next message(s) 3665 (e.g. 3645-3640 and 3642), if any, is appended to feed and displayed. In another embodiment instead of scroll up, user can tap or click on next button or icon or link or control or instruct or issue next command via pre-defined user sense(s) via one or more types of sensors of user device(s) on to view next visual media item or content item (if any) or instead of scroll down, user can tap or click on previous button or icon or link or control or instruct or issue previous command via pre-defined user sense(s) via one or more types of sensors of user device(s) to view visual media item or content item.

[0460] FIG. 36 (C) illustrates the exterior of electronic device 200. The Figure also illustrates the display 210. The display 210 presents a set of ephemeral messages 3130 available for viewing. A first one or more or set of message(s) e.g. 3620 & 3622 may be displayed. Upon complete scrolling up of displayed visual media item(s) (e.g. 3605 and 3610) out of pre-defined boundary 3616 of display 210 or container 3630, a second message(s) 3645 or subsequent message(s) in queue 3645 is/are displayed.

[0461] FIG. 37 illustrates processing operations associated with display of ephemeral messages with no scrolling and based on expiration of pre-set duration of timer associated with each ephemeral message, remove expired ephemeral message(s) or media item(s) from presented feed or set of ephemeral messages and in the event of removal of ephemeral message(s) or media item(s), load or present next available (if any) removed number equivalent or available to present ephemeral messages in accordance with an embodiment of the invention.

[0462] In an embodiment describe in FIGS. 37(A) and 37(B), an ephemeral message controller 277 with instructions executed by a processor 230 to: present on the display 210 a one or more ephemeral content item(s) or message(s) 3725 (e.g. 3712 and 3713) (In an embodiment message or notification can serve by server 110 via server module 178 or serve from client device 200 storage medium or serve from one or more sources including one or more contacts, connections, users, domains, servers, web sites, applications, user accounts, storage mediums, databases, networks, devices via one or more web services, application programming interface (API) or software development toolkit (SDK) or providing of authentication information or one or more types of communication interfaces and any combination thereof) of the collection of ephemeral content item(s) or messages(s) 3710 for a corresponding associated transitory period of time defined by a timer 3727 (e.g. 3702 and 3704) for each presented ephemeral content item(s) or messages(s) (e.g. timer 3702 for media item 3701 and timer 3704 for media item 3707), wherein the first ephemeral content item(s) or messages(s) 3705 from the presented set of ephemeral content item(s) or messages(s) 3703 is/are deleted when the corresponding associated transitory period of time expires 3702; receive from a touch controller a haptic contact signal 3732 indicative of a gesture applied to the display 210 during the first transitory period of time 3734 (e.g. 3702); wherein the ephemeral message controller 277 deletes first set of presented ephemeral content item(s) or messages(s) (e.g. 3703-3705 and 3707) in response to the haptic contact signal (3732) and proceeds to present on the display 210 a second set of ephemeral content item(s) or messages(s) 3725 (e.g. 3710-3712 and 3713) of the collection of or identified or contextual ephemeral content item(s) or messages(s) 3710 for a corresponding associated transitory period of time defined by the timer 3727 for each presented ephemeral content item(s) or messages(s) 3725, wherein the ephemeral message controller 277 deletes the presented ephemeral content item(s) or messages(s) upon the expiration of the corresponding associated transitory period of time 3734 defined by a timer for each presented ephemeral content item(s) or messages(s); wherein the second set of ephemeral content item(s) or messages(s) 3710 is deleted when the touch controller receives another haptic contact signal 3732 indicative of another gesture applied to the display during the second transitory period of time 3734; and wherein the ephemeral content or message controller 277 initiates the timer upon the display of the first set of ephemeral content item(s) or messages(s) 3703 and the display of the second set of ephemeral content item(s) or messages(s) 3710.

[0463] The ephemeral message controller 277, in response to deletion of ephemeral message(s) e.g. 3705 and 3707, add to display or present to display 210 another available ephemeral message(s) e.g. 3712 and 3713 on the display 210.

[0464] FIG. 2 illustrates an electronic device 200 implementing operations of the invention. In one embodiment, the electronic device 200 is a smartphone with a processor 230 in communication with a memory 236. The processor 230 may be a central processing unit and/or a graphics processing unit. The memory 236 is a combination of flash memory and random access memory. The memory 236 stores an ephemeral message controller 277 to implement operations of the invention. The ephemeral message controller 277 includes executable instructions to accelerate display of ephemeral messages. An ephemeral message may be a text, an image, a video and the like. The display time for the one or more or set of ephemeral message is/are typically set by the message sender. However, the display time may be a default setting or a setting specified by the recipient. Regardless of the setting technique, the message is transitory.

[0465] The processor 230 is also coupled to image sensors 244. The image sensors 244 may be known digital image sensors, such as charge coupled devices. The image sensors capture visual media, which is presented on display 210.

[0466] A touch controller 215 is connected to the display 210 and the processor 230. The touch controller 215 is responsive to haptic signals applied to the display 210. In one embodiment, the ephemeral message controller 277 monitors signals from the touch controller 215. If haptic contact is observed by the touch controller 215 during the display of set of ephemeral message(s), then the display of the existing message(s) is/are terminated and a subsequent set of ephemeral message(s), if any, is displayed. In one embodiment, two haptic signals may be monitored. A continuous haptic signal may be required to display a message(s), while an additional haptic signal may operate to terminate the display of the set of displayed message(s). For example, the viewer might tap the screen with a finger while maintaining haptic contact with another finger. This causes the screen to display the next set of media in the collection. In one embodiment, the haptic contact to terminate a set of message(s) is any gesture applied to any location on the display 210. In another embodiment, the haptic contact is any gesture applied to the message(s) itself. In one embodiment, the gesture is un-prompted (i.e., there is no prompt such as “Delete” to solicit an action from the user). In another embodiment, the gesture may be prompted (e.g., by supplying a “Delete” option on the display, which must be touched to effectuate deletion).

[0467] The electronic device 200 may also include other components commonly associated with a smartphone, such as a wireless signal processor 220, a power control circuit 225 and a global positioning system processor 235. While many of components of FIG. 2 are known in the art, new functionality is achieved through the ephemeral message controller 277.

[0468] FIG. 37 (B) illustrates processing operations associated with the ephemeral message controller 277. Initially, one or more or set of ephemeral message(s) is/are displayed 3725 (e.g. 3703-3705 and 3707). A timer associated with said each ephemeral message (e.g. timer 3702 for media item 3701 and timer 3704 for media item 3707) is/are then started 3725. The timer may be associated with the processor 230.

[0469] Haptic contact is then monitored 3732. If haptic contact exists (7532—Yes), then the current one or more or set of message(s) (e.g. 3703-3705 and 3707) is/are deleted and the next message(s) (e.g. 3710-3712 and 3713), if any, is displayed 3532. If haptic contact does not exist (3732—No), then the timer is checked 3734. If the timer has expired (3734—Yes), then the current one or more or set of message(s) (e.g. 3703-3705 and 3707) is/are deleted and the next one or more or set of message(s) 3725 (e.g. 3710-3712 and 3713), if any, is/are displayed 3725. If the timer has not expired (3734—No), then another haptic contact check is made 3732. This sequence between blocks 3732 and 3734 is repeated until haptic contact is identified or the timer expires.

[0470] FIG. 37 (A) illustrates the exterior of electronic device 200. The Figure also illustrates the display 210. The display 210 presents a set of ephemeral messages (3703) available for viewing. A first set of message(s) 3725 (3703) may be displayed. Upon expiration of the timer 3734 (e.g. 3702, 3704) associate with each presented ephemeral message (e.g. 3705, 3707), a second message e.g. 3712 is displayed. Alternately, if haptic contact 3732 is received before the timer expires 3734 (e.g. 3702, 3704) the second set of message(s) 3725 (3710) is displayed.

[0471] In another embodiment FIG. 37 (D) illustrates processing operations associated with accelerated display of ephemeral messages in accordance with an embodiment of the invention and FIG. 37 (C) illustrates the exterior of an electronic device implementing accelerated display of ephemeral messages in accordance with the invention. FIG. 2 illustrates an electronic device 200 implementing operations of the invention.

The processor 230 is also coupled to one or more sensors including Orientation Sensor 237, Position Sensor 242, GPS Sensor 238, Audio sensor 245, Proximity Sensor 246, Gyroscope 247, Accelerometer 248 and other one or more types of sensors 250 including hover sensor, eye tracking system via optical sensors 240 or image sensors 244. In one embodiment, the ephemeral message controller 277 monitors signals or senses or one or more types of pre-defined equivalents of generated or updated sensor data from the one or more sensors including voice command from audio sensor 245 or particular type of eye movement from eye tracking system based on image sensors 244 or optical sensors 240 or hover signal from e.g. specific type of proximity sensor 246. If one of the pre-defined types of said senses detected or is observed by the said one or more types of sensors during the display of a set of ephemeral message(s), then the display of the existing set of message(s) is/are terminated and a subsequent set of ephemeral message(s), if any, is displayed.

In another embodiment, the gesture may be prompted (e.g., by supplying a “Delete” option on the display, which must be sensed or touched to effectuate deletion).

[0473] The electronic device 200 may also include other components commonly associated with a smartphone, such as a wireless signal processor 220, a power control circuit 225 and a global positioning system processor 242. While many of components of FIG. 2 are known in the art, new functionality is achieved through the ephemeral message controller 277.

[0474] FIG. 37 (D) illustrates processing operations associated with the ephemeral message controller 277. Initially, a set of ephemeral message(s) is/are displayed 3738 (e.g. 3719-3715, 3717, 3721 and 3723) (In an embodiment message or notification can serve by server 110 via server module 178 or serve from client device 200 storage medium or serve from one or more sources including one or more contacts, connections, users, domains, servers, web sites, applications, user accounts, storage mediums, databases, networks, devices via one or more web services, application programming interface (API) or software development toolkit (SDK) or providing of authentication information or one or more types of communication interfaces and any combination thereof). A timer 3740 (3716, 3718, 3720 and 3724) associated with displayed set of message(s) (e.g. 3719-3715, 3717, 3721 and 3723) is/are then started 3740. The timer may be associated with the processor 230.

[0475] One or more types of user sense is/are then monitored, tracked, detected and identified 3743. If pre-defined user sense identified or detected or recognized or exists (3743—Yes), then the current set of message(s) (e.g. 3719-3715, 3717, 3721 and 3723) is/are deleted and the next set of message(s) 3738 (e.g. 3750-3752 and 3754), if any, is displayed 3738. If user sense does not identified or detected or recognized or exist (3743—No), then the timer is checked 3746. If the timer has expired (3746—Yes), then the each expired timer associated message (e.g. 3719-3715, 3717, 3721 and 3723) is/are deleted and the next set of message(s) (e.g. 3525-3523 and 3528), if any, is displayed 3738. If the timer has not expired (3746—No), then another user sense identification or detection or recognition check is made 3743. This sequence between blocks 3743 and 3746 is repeated until one or more types of pre-defined user sense is identified or detected or recognized or the timer expires.

[0476] FIG. 37 (C) illustrates the exterior of electronic device 200. The Figure also illustrates the display 210. The display 210 presents a set of ephemeral messages 3738 (e.g. 3719-3715, 3717, 3721 and 3723) available for viewing. A first set of message 3738 (e.g. 3719-3715, 3717, 3721 and 3723) may be displayed. Upon expiration of the timer 3746 (3716, 3718, 3720 and 3724) associated with each displayed message (e.g. 3719-3715, 3717, 3721 and 3723), after expiry of each timer a second messages 3738 (e.g. 3752 or 3754) is displayed. Alternately, if one or more types of pre-define user sense or user sense data or signal via one or more types of sensor is received (3743) before the timer expires 3746 the second set of message(s) 3738 (e.g. 3750-3752 and 3754) is/are displayed.

[0480] In an embodiment in FIG. 38 (D), a non-transitory computer readable storage medium, comprising instructions executed by a processor to: present on the display a scrollable list of ephemeral content item(s) or message(s) 3842 (e.g. 3822 and 3825) of the collection of ephemeral content item(s) or messages(s) (In an embodiment message or notification can serve by server 110 via server module 178 or serve from client device 200 storage medium or serve from one or more sources including one or more contacts, connections, users, domains, servers, web sites, applications, user accounts, storage mediums, databases, networks, devices via one or more web services, application programming interface (API) or software development toolkit (SDK) or providing of authentication information or one or more types of communication interfaces and any combination thereof) for a corresponding associated transitory period of time defined by a timer 3845 (e.g. 3802 and 3803) for each presented ephemeral content item(s) or messages(s) (e.g. 3822 and 3825), wherein the first ephemeral content item(s) or messages(s) (e.g. 3822) from the presented set of ephemeral content item(s) or messages(s) (3820—e.g. 3822 and 3825) is/are deleted when the corresponding associated transitory period of time expires 3853 (e.g. 3802); receive from a one or more types of one or more sensors of user device(s) a pre-defined user sense or sensor data or sensor signal indicative of a gesture applied on the particular ephemeral content item or message area 3848; wherein the ephemeral message controller 277 deletes first presented ephemeral content item(s) or messages(s) (e.g. 3802) in response to the one or more types of one or more sensors of user device(s) a pre-defined user sense or sensor data or sensor signal on message area (e.g. 3822) and proceeds to present on the display 210 a second ephemeral content item(s) or messages(s) 3842 (e.g. 3831) of the collection of or identified or contextual ephemeral content item(s) or messages(s) 3830 for a corresponding associated transitory period of time defined by the timer 3845, wherein the ephemeral message controller 277 deletes the presented ephemeral content item(s) or messages(s) upon the expiration of the corresponding associated transitory period of time defined by a timer 3853 for each presented ephemeral content item(s) or messages(s); wherein the second ephemeral content item(s) or messages(s) (e.g. 3803) is deleted when the one or more types of one or more sensors of user device(s) receives another a pre-defined user sense or sensor data or sensor signal indicative of another gesture applied on the particular ephemeral content item or message area; and wherein the ephemeral content or message controller 277 initiates the corresponding timer associated with each next displayed ephemeral content item or messages.

[0481] FIG. 2 illustrates an electronic device 200 implementing operations of the invention. In one embodiment, the electronic device 200 is a smartphone with a processor 230 in communication with a memory 236. The processor 230 may be a central processing unit and/or a graphics processing unit. The memory 236 is a combination of flash memory and random access memory. The memory 236 stores an ephemeral message controller 277 to implement operations of the invention. The ephemeral message controller 277 includes executable instructions to accelerate display of ephemeral messages. An ephemeral message may be a text, an image, a video and the like. The auto refresh to display time for the ephemeral message(s) is/are typically set by the server or set by the message sender. However, the display time may be a default setting or a setting specified by the recipient. Regardless of the setting technique, the message(s) is/are transitory.

[0482] The processor 230 is also coupled to image sensors 244. The image sensors 244 may be known digital image sensors, such as charge coupled devices. The image sensors capture visual media, which is presented on display 210.

[0483] The electronic device 200 may also include other components commonly associated with a smartphone, such as a wireless signal processor 220, a power control circuit 225 and a global positioning system processor 235. While many of components of FIG. 2 are known in the art, new functionality is achieved through the ephemeral message controller 277.

[0484] In an embodiment FIG. 38 (B) illustrates processing operations associated with the ephemeral message controller 277. Initially, one or more or set of ephemeral message(s) is/are displayed 3860 (3820—e.g. 3822 and 3825) (In an embodiment message or notification can serve by server 110 via server module 178 or serve from client device 200 storage medium or serve from one or more sources including one or more contacts, connections, users, domains, servers, web sites, applications, user accounts, storage mediums, databases, networks, devices via one or more web services, application programming interface (API) or software development toolkit (SDK) or providing of authentication information or one or more types of communication interfaces and any combination thereof). A timer associated with each presented message is then started 3862. The timer may be associated with the processor 230.

[0485] Then the timer associated with each displayed message is then checked 3864. If the timer associated with one or more message has expired (3864—Yes), then the expired timer 3864 associated one or more or set of message(s) (e.g. 3822) is/are deleted and the next message(s), if any, is/are displayed 3860 (e.g. 3831).

[0486] FIG. 38 (B) illustrates the exterior of electronic device 200. The Figure also illustrates the display 210. The display 210 presents a set of ephemeral messages 3860 (e.g. 3822 and 3825) available for viewing. A first set of message(s) 3860 (e.g. 3822 and 3825) may be displayed. Upon expiration of the timer 3864, a second set of message(s) 3860 (e.g. 3830-3831 and 3832) is displayed.

[0487] FIG. 38 illustrates processing operations associated with display of ephemeral messages with scrolling and based on expiration of pre-set duration of timer associated with each ephemeral message, remove expired ephemeral message(s) or media item(s) from presented feed or set of ephemeral messages and in the event of removal of ephemeral message(s) or media item(s), load or present next available (if any) removed number equivalent or available to present ephemeral messages in accordance with an embodiment of the invention.

[0488] In an embodiment describe in FIGS. 37(A) and 37(C), an ephemeral message controller 277 with instructions executed by a processor 230 to: present on the display 210 a one or more ephemeral content item(s) or message(s) 3833 (e.g. 3822 and 3825) of the collection of ephemeral content item(s) or messages(s) 3820 for a corresponding associated transitory period of time defined by a timer 3834 (e.g. 3802 and 3803) for each presented ephemeral content item(s) or messages(s) (e.g. timer 3802 for media item 3822 and timer 3803 for media item 3825), wherein the first ephemeral content item(s) or messages(s) 3822 from the presented set of ephemeral content item(s) or messages(s) 3833 (e.g. 3822 and 3825) is/are deleted when the corresponding associated transitory period of time expires 3840 (e.g. 3802); receive from a touch controller a haptic contact signal 3836 indicative of a gesture applied on the particular message area (e.g. 3822) of the display 210 during the first transitory period of time 3840 (e.g. 3802); wherein the ephemeral message controller 277 deletes first set of presented ephemeral content item(s) or messages(s) (e.g. 3820-3822 and 3825) in response to the haptic contact signal (3836) on the particular message area (e.g. 3822) and proceeds to present on the display 210 a second set of ephemeral content item(s) or messages(s) 3833 (e.g. 3831 and 3832) of the collection of or identified or contextual ephemeral content item(s) or messages(s) 3830 for a corresponding associated transitory period of time defined by the timer 3834 for each presented ephemeral content item(s) or messages(s) (e.g. 3830-3831 and 3832), wherein the ephemeral message controller 277 deletes the presented ephemeral content item(s) or messages(s) (e.g. 3830-3831 and 3832) upon the expiration of the corresponding associated transitory period of time 3840 defined by a timer for each presented ephemeral content item(s) or messages(s) (e.g. 3830-3831 and 3832); wherein the second set of ephemeral content item(s) or messages(s) (e.g. 3830-3831 and 3832) is deleted when the touch controller receives another haptic contact signal 3836 indicative of another gesture applied on the particular message area (e.g. 3825) of the display during the second transitory period of time 3840; and wherein the ephemeral content or message controller 277 initiates the timer upon the display of the first set of ephemeral content item(s) or messages(s) 3833 (e.g. 3820-3822 and 3825) and the display of the second set of ephemeral content item(s) or messages(s) 3833 (e.g. 3830-3831 and 3832).

[0489] The ephemeral message controller 277, in response to deletion of ephemeral message(s) e.g. 3822 and 3825, add or append to display or present to display 210 replaced in place of deleted message another available ephemeral message(s) e.g. 3831 and 3832 on the display 210.

[0490] FIG. 2 illustrates an electronic device 200 implementing operations of the invention. In one embodiment, the electronic device 200 is a smartphone with a processor 230 in communication with a memory 236. The processor 230 may be a central processing unit and/or a graphics processing unit. The memory 236 is a combination of flash memory and random access memory. The memory 236 stores an ephemeral message controller 277 to implement operations of the invention. The ephemeral message controller 277 includes executable instructions to accelerate display of ephemeral messages. An ephemeral message may be a text, an image, a video and the like. The display time for the one or more or set of ephemeral message is/are typically set by the message sender. However, the display time may be a default setting or a setting specified by the recipient. Regardless of the setting technique, the message is transitory.

[0491] The processor 230 is also coupled to image sensors 244. The image sensors 244 may be known digital image sensors, such as charge coupled devices. The image sensors capture visual media, which is presented on display 210.

[0492] A touch controller 215 is connected to the display 210 and the processor 230. The touch controller 215 is responsive to haptic signals applied on the particular message area (e.g. 3822 or 3825) of the display 210. In one embodiment, the ephemeral message controller 277 monitors signals from the touch controller 215 on the particular message area (e.g. 3822). If haptic contact is observed by the touch controller 215 on the particular message area (e.g. 3822) during the display of set of ephemeral message(s), then the display of the existing message(s) (e.g. 3822) is/are terminated and a subsequent set of ephemeral message(s) (e.g. 3831), if any, is displayed. In one embodiment, two haptic signals on the particular message area (e.g. 3822 and 3825) may be monitored. A continuous haptic signal on the particular message area may be required to display a message(s), while an additional haptic signal on the particular message area may operate to terminate the display of the one or more or set of displayed message(s). For example, the viewer might tap the screen with a finger while maintaining haptic contact on the particular message area with another finger. This causes the screen to display the next set of media in the collection. In one embodiment, the haptic contact to terminate a message(s) is any gesture applied to any location on the particular message area (e.g. 3822) on the display 210. In another embodiment, the haptic contact is any gesture applied to the message(s) area itself. In one embodiment, the gesture is un-prompted (i.e., there is no prompt such as “Delete” to solicit an action from the user). In another embodiment, the gesture may be prompted (e.g., by supplying a “Delete” option on the display, which must be touched to effectuate deletion).

[0493] The electronic device 200 may also include other components commonly associated with a smartphone, such as a wireless signal processor 220, a power control circuit 225 and a global positioning system processor 235. While many of components of FIG. 2 are known in the art, new functionality is achieved through the ephemeral message controller 277.

[0494] FIG. 37 (C) illustrates processing operations associated with the ephemeral message controller 277. Initially, one or more or set of ephemeral message(s) is/are displayed 3833 (e.g. 3820-3822 and 3825). A timer associated with said each ephemeral message (e.g. timer 3802 for media item 3822 and timer 3803 for media item 3825) is/are then started 3834. The timer may be associated with the processor 230.

[0495] Haptic contact on the each message area is then monitored 3836. If haptic contact on particular message area (e.g. 3822) exists (3836—Yes), then the said message (e.g. 3822) is deleted and the next message (e.g. 3831), if any, is displayed 3833. If haptic contact on particular message area (e.g. 3822) does not exist (3836—No), then the timer is checked 3840 (e.g. timer 3802 of message 3822). If the timer has expired (3840—Yes) (e.g. timer 3802 of message 3822 expired), then the message (e.g. 3822) is deleted and the next message 3833 (e.g. 3831), if any, is displayed 3833. If the timer has not expired (3840—No), then another haptic contact check is made 3836. This sequence between blocks 3836 and 3840 is repeated until haptic contact on particular message area is identified or the timer associated with particular message expires.

[0496] FIG. 38 (A) illustrates the exterior of electronic device 200. The Figure also illustrates the display 210. The display 210 presents a set of ephemeral messages (3820) available for viewing. A first set of message(s) 3833 (3820) may be displayed. Upon expiration of the timer 3840 (e.g. 3802) associate with each presented ephemeral message (e.g. 3822), a second message e.g. 3831 is displayed. Alternately, if haptic contact on message 3802 area (e.g. 3822) is received before the timer expires 3840 (e.g. 3802) the second set of message(s) (3831) is displayed 3833.

[0497] In another embodiment FIG. 38 (D) illustrates processing operations associated with accelerated display of ephemeral messages in accordance with an embodiment of the invention and FIG. 38 (A) illustrates the exterior of an electronic device implementing accelerated display of ephemeral messages in accordance with the invention. FIG. 2 illustrates an electronic device 200 implementing operations of the invention. In one embodiment, the electronic device 200 is a smartphone with a processor 230 in communication with a memory 236. The processor 230 may be a central processing unit and/or a graphics processing unit. The memory 236 is a combination of flash memory and random access memory. The memory 236 stores an ephemeral message controller 277 to implement operations of the invention. The ephemeral message controller 277 includes executable instructions to accelerate display of ephemeral messages. An ephemeral message may be a text, an image, a video and the like. The display time for the ephemeral message is typically set by the message sender. However, the display time may be a default setting or a setting specified by the recipient. Regardless of the setting technique, the message is transitory.

[0498] The processor 230 is also coupled to image sensors 244. The image sensors 244 may be known digital image sensors, such as charge coupled devices. The image sensors capture visual media, which is presented on display 210. The processor 230 is also coupled to one or more sensors including Orientation Sensor 237, Position Sensor 242, GPS Sensor 238, Audio sensor 245, Proximity Sensor 246, Gyroscope 247, Accelerometer 248 and other one or more types of sensors 250 including hover sensor, eye tracking system via optical sensors 240 or image sensors 244. In one embodiment, the ephemeral message controller 277 monitors signals or senses or one or more types of pre-defined equivalents of generated or updated sensor data from the one or more sensors 3848 including user voice command via audio sensor 245 or particular type of user's eye movement via eye tracking system based on image sensors 244 or optical sensors 240 or hover signal from user via e.g. specific type of proximity sensor 246. If one of the pre-defined types of said senses detected or is observed 3848 on particular or selected or identified message area (e.g. 3822) by the said one or more types of sensors 3848 during the display of a set of ephemeral message(s) 3842, then the display of the particular or selected or identified message (e.g. 3822) is terminated and a subsequent ephemeral message (e.g. 3831), if any, is displayed. In one embodiment, two types of signals or senses from sensors may be monitored 3848. A continuous signal or senses from one or more types of sensors may be required 3848 to display a one or more or set of message(s), while an additional sensor signal or sense 3848 may operate to terminate the display of the set of message(s). For example, the viewer might instruct via voice command or hover on display or done one or more types of pre-defined eye movement. This causes the screen to display the next set of media (e.g. 3831 and 3832) in the collection (e.g. 3830). In one embodiment, the one or more types of pre-defined signal or senses provide by user and detected or sense by sensor 3848 to terminate a message while media viewer application or interface is open or while viewing of display 210. In another embodiment, the sensor signal or sense is any sense applied on the message area itself. In one embodiment, the gesture is un-prompted (i.e., there is no prompt such as “Delete” to solicit an action from the user). In another embodiment, the gesture may be prompted (e.g., by supplying a “Delete” option on the display, which must be sensed or touched to effectuate deletion).

[0499] The electronic device 200 may also include other components commonly associated with a smartphone, such as a wireless signal processor 220, a power control circuit 225 and a global positioning system processor 242. While many of components of FIG. 2 are known in the art, new functionality is achieved through the ephemeral message controller 277.

[0500] FIG. 38 (D) illustrates processing operations associated with the ephemeral message controller 277. Initially, a set of ephemeral message(s) is/are displayed 3842 (e.g. 3820-3822 and 3825). A timer 3845 correspondingly (timer 3802 associated with message 3822 and timer associated 3803 with message 3825) associated with displayed each message is then started 3845. The timer may be associated with the processor 230.

[0501] One or more types of user sense on particular or selected or identified message area (e.g. 3822) is then monitored, tracked, detected and identified 3848. If pre-defined user sense identified or detected or recognized or exists on particular or selected or identified message area (e.g. 3822) (3848—Yes), then said message (e.g. 3822) is deleted and the next message (e.g. 3831), if any, is displayed 3842. If user sense does not identified or detected or recognized or exist on particular or selected or identified message area (e.g. 3822) (3848—No), then the timer associated with each displayed message is checked 3853. If the timer associated with each displayed message has expired (3853—Yes), then the each expired timer associated message (e.g. 3822) is deleted and the next message(s) (e.g. 3831), if any, is displayed 3842. If the timer associated with each message or particular message has not expired (3853—No), then another user sense identification or detection or recognition check is made 3848. This sequence between blocks 3848 and 3853 is repeated until one or more types of pre-defined user sense is identified or detected or recognized 3848 or the timer expires 3853.

[0502] FIG. 38 (A) illustrates the exterior of electronic device 200. The Figure also illustrates the display 210. The display 210 presents a set of ephemeral messages 3842 (e.g. 3820-3822 and 3825) available for viewing. A first set of message 3842 (e.g. 3820-3822 and 3825) may be displayed. Upon expiration of the timer 3853 (e.g. timer 3802 associated with message 3822 expired) associated with each displayed message, after expiry of particular timer associated with particular message, a second message (e.g. 3831) is displayed 3842. Alternately, if one or more types of pre-define user sense or user sense data or signal via one or more types of sensor is received (3848) before the timer expires 3848 the second message (e.g. 3831) is displayed 3842.

[0503] FIG. 39 illustrates processing operations associated with accelerated display of ephemeral messages in accordance with an embodiment of the invention and illustrates interface and the exterior of an electronic device implementing accelerated display of ephemeral messages in accordance with the invention.

[0504] In an embodiment an ephemeral message controller with instructions executed by a processor to: present on a display indicia of a set of ephemeral messages available for viewing; present on the display a first ephemeral message 3971 of the set of ephemeral messages 3960; receive from a touch controller a haptic contact signal 3933 indicative of a gesture applied to the display 210; wherein the ephemeral message controller 277 deletes the first ephemeral message 3971 in response to the haptic contact signal 3933 and proceeds to present on the display a second ephemeral message 3970 of the set of ephemeral messages 3960; wherein the second ephemeral message 3970 is deleted when the touch controller receives another haptic contact signal 3933 indicative of another gesture applied to the display 210.

[0505] FIG. 2 illustrates an electronic device 200 implementing operations of the invention. In one embodiment, the electronic device 200 is a smartphone with a processor 230 in communication with a memory 236. The processor 230 may be a central processing unit and/or a graphics processing unit. The memory 236 is a combination of flash memory and random access memory. The memory 236 stores an ephemeral message controller 277 to implement operations of the invention. The ephemeral message controller 277 includes executable instructions to accelerate display of ephemeral messages. An ephemeral message may be a text, an image, a video and the like.

[0506] The processor 230 is also coupled to image sensors 244. The image sensors 244 may be known digital image sensors, such as charge coupled devices. The image sensors capture visual media, which is presented on display 210.

[0507] A touch controller 215 is connected to the display 210 and the processor 230. The touch controller 215 is responsive to haptic signals applied to the display 210. In one embodiment, the ephemeral message controller 277 monitors signals from the touch controller 215. If haptic contact is observed by the touch controller 215 during the display of an ephemeral message, then the display of the existing message is terminated and a subsequent ephemeral message, if any, is displayed. In one embodiment, two haptic signals may be monitored. A continuous haptic signal may be required to display a message, while an additional haptic signal may operate to terminate the display of the message. For example, the viewer might tap the screen with a finger while maintaining haptic contact with another finger. This causes the screen to display the next piece of media in the set. In one embodiment, the haptic contact to terminate a message is any gesture applied to any location on the display 210. In another embodiment, the haptic contact is any gesture applied to the message itself. In one embodiment, the gesture is un-prompted (i.e., there is no prompt such as “Delete” to solicit an action from the user). In another embodiment, the gesture may be prompted (e.g., by supplying a “Delete” option on the display, which must be touched to effectuate deletion).

[0508] The electronic device 200 may also include other components commonly associated with a smartphone, such as a wireless signal processor 220, a power control circuit 225 and a global positioning system processor 235. While many of components of FIG. 2 are known in the art, new functionality is achieved through the ephemeral message controller 277.

[0509] FIG. 2 illustrates processing operations associated with the ephemeral message controller 277. Initially, an ephemeral message is displayed 3931 (e.g. 3971) (In an embodiment message or notification can serve by server 110 via server module 178 or serve from client device 200 storage medium or serve from one or more sources including one or more contacts, connections, users, domains, servers, web sites, applications, user accounts, storage mediums, databases, networks, devices via one or more web services, application programming interface (API) or software development toolkit (SDK) or providing of authentication information or one or more types of communication interfaces and any combination thereof).

[0510] Haptic contact is then monitored 3933. If haptic contact exists (3933—Yes), then the current message (e.g. 3971) is deleted and the next message (e.g. 3970), if any, is displayed 3931. Then another haptic contact check is made 3933. If haptic contact exists (3933—Yes), then the current message (e.g. 3970) is deleted and the next message (e.g. 3969), if any, is displayed 3931. If haptic contact does not exist (3933—No) then does not show next message.

[0511] FIG. 39 (C) illustrates the exterior of electronic device 200. The Figure also illustrates the display 210. The display 210 presents a set of ephemeral messages 3960 available for viewing. A first message 3971 may be displayed 3931. If haptic contact 3933 is received then the second message 3970 is displayed 3931.

[0512] In another embodiment FIG. 39 (B), an ephemeral message controller 277 with instructions executed by a processor to: present on a display indicia of a set of ephemeral messages available for viewing; present on the display 210 a first ephemeral message 3920 (e.g. 3971) of the set of ephemeral messages 3960 (In an embodiment message or notification can serve by server 110 via server module 178 or serve from client device 200 storage medium or serve from one or more sources including one or more contacts, connections, users, domains, servers, web sites, applications, user accounts, storage mediums, databases, networks, devices via one or more web services, application programming interface (API) or software development toolkit (SDK) or providing of authentication information or one or more types of communication interfaces and any combination thereof) for a first pre-set number of times of views 3922 defined by a sender or server or as per default settings or receiver, wherein the first ephemeral message (e.g. 3971) is deleted when the first pre-set number of times of views expires (3925—Yes); receive from a touch controller a haptic contact signal 3927 indicative of a gesture applied to the display 210 during the balance of first pre-set number of times of views (3925—No); wherein the ephemeral message controller 277 hides the first ephemeral message (e.g. 3971) in response to the haptic contact signal 3927 and proceeds to present on the display 210 a second ephemeral message (e.g. 39710 of the set of ephemeral messages 3960 for a second pre-set number of times of views 3922 defined by a sender or server ore receiver, wherein the ephemeral message controller 277 deletes the second ephemeral message (e.g. 3970) upon the expiration of the second pre-set number of times of views (3925—Yes); wherein the second ephemeral message (e.g. 3970) is hides when the touch controller 215 receives another haptic contact signal 3927 indicative of another gesture applied to the display 210 during the balance of second pre-set number of times of views (3925—No).

[0513] FIG. 2 illustrates an electronic device 200 implementing operations of the invention. In one embodiment, the electronic device 200 is a smartphone with a processor 230 in communication with a memory 236. The processor 230 may be a central processing unit and/or a graphics processing unit. The memory 236 is a combination of flash memory and random access memory. The memory 236 stores an ephemeral message controller 277 to implement operations of the invention. The ephemeral message controller 277 includes executable instructions to accelerate display of ephemeral messages. An ephemeral message may be a text, an image, a video and the like. The pre-set number of times of views or display for the ephemeral message is typically set by the message sender. However, the display time may be a default setting or a setting specified by the recipient. Regardless of the setting technique, the message is transitory i.e. after pre-set number of times of views, it will remove by system.

[0514] The processor 230 is also coupled to image sensors 244. The image sensors 244 may be known digital image sensors, such as charge coupled devices. The image sensors capture visual media, which is presented on display 210.

[0515] A touch controller 215 is connected to the display 210 and the processor 230. The touch controller 215 is responsive to haptic signals applied to the display 210. In one embodiment, the ephemeral message controller 277 monitors signals from the touch controller 215. If haptic contact is observed by the touch controller 215 during the display of an ephemeral message, then the subsequent ephemeral message, if any, is displayed. In one embodiment, two haptic signals may be monitored. A continuous haptic signal may be required to display a message, while an additional haptic signal may operate to the display of the next message. For example, the viewer might tap the screen with a finger while maintaining haptic contact with another finger. This causes the screen to display the next piece of media in the set. In one embodiment, the haptic contact to display a next message is any gesture applied to any location on the display 210. In another embodiment, the haptic contact is any gesture applied to the message itself. In one embodiment, the gesture is un-prompted (i.e., there is no prompt such as “Delete” to solicit an action from the user). In another embodiment, the gesture may be prompted (e.g., by supplying a “Delete” option on the display, which must be touched to effectuate deletion).

[0516] The electronic device 200 may also include other components commonly associated with a smartphone, such as a wireless signal processor 220, a power control circuit 225 and a global positioning system processor 235. While many of components of FIG. 2 are known in the art, new functionality is achieved through the ephemeral message controller 277.

[0517] FIG. 39 (B) illustrates processing operations associated with the ephemeral message controller 277. Initially, an ephemeral message is displayed 3971. A starting of counting of number of times of views or displays associated with each ephemeral message is then started 3922.

[0518] Haptic contact is then monitored 3927. If haptic contact exists (3927—Yes), then the current message is hide and the next message, if any, is displayed 3920. If haptic contact does not exist (3927—No), then the counter is checked 3925. If the counter threshold exceeded (3925—Yes), then the current message is deleted and the next message, if any, is displayed 200. If the counter threshold not exceeded (3925—No), then another haptic contact check is made 3927. This sequence between blocks 3925 and 3927 is repeated until haptic contact 3927 is identified or the pre-set number of times of views or displays counter exceeded (3925—Yes).

[0519] FIG. 39 (C) illustrates the exterior of electronic device 200. The Figure also illustrates the display 210. The display 210 presents a set of ephemeral messages 3960 available for viewing. A first message 3971 may be displayed. Upon exceeding of pre-set number of views or displays of the counter, a second message 3970 is displayed. Alternately, if haptic contact 3927 is received before pre-set number of views or displays of the counter exceeded, the second message 3970 is displayed 3920.

[0520] In an another embodiment FIGS. 39 (D) and 39 (E), an ephemeral message controller with instructions executed by a processor to: present on a display indicia of a set of ephemeral messages available for viewing; present on the display a first ephemeral message of the set of ephemeral messages for a pre-set interval period of time defined by a timer, wherein the first ephemeral message is deleted when the pre-set interval period of time expires and proceeds to present on the display a second ephemeral message of the set of ephemeral messages for a pre-set interval period of time defined by the timer, wherein the ephemeral message controller deletes the second ephemeral message upon the expiration of the pre-set interval period of time; and wherein enabling viewer to change pre-set interval period of time (e.g. change interval period of time via slider 3915) and based on changes the ephemeral message controller initiates the interval timer for display of the next ephemeral message.

[0521] FIG. 39 (E) illustrates the user interface of electronic device 200. The Figure also illustrates the display 210. The display 210 presents a first ephemeral message 3910 available for viewing. A first message 3910 may be displayed. Upon expiration of the interval timer, a second message is displayed. User is enabling to change pre-set interval period of time (e.g. change interval period of time via slider 3915) and based on changes the ephemeral message controller initiates the interval timer for display of the next ephemeral message, so use can make slow or fast of auto presenting and removing of message(s) as for their dynamic need. In an another embodiment user is enabled to pause, play or re-start and stop 3955 presenting of visual media items or content items or particular story or set of visual media items or content items. In another embodiment user can view previous via swipe right or next via swipe left visual media items for content items for pre-set number of times, in the event of exceeding of said pre-set number of times of view, removing of visual media items or content items.

[0522] FIG. 40 illustrates logic flow for the visual media capture system. Techniques to selectively capture front camera or back camera photo using a single user interface element are described. In one embodiment, an apparatus may comprise a touch controller 215, a visual media capture controller 278, and a storage 236. The touch controller 215 may be operative to receive a haptic engagement signal. The visual media capture controller 278 may be operative to be configured in a capture mode based on whether a haptic disengagement signal is received by the touch controller 215 before expiration of a pre-set threshold of first timer, the capture mode one of a front camera photo capture mode or back camera photo capture mode, the first timer 4020 started in response to receiving the haptic engagement signal 4015, the first timer 4020 maximum threshold configured to expire after a first preset duration. The storage component may be operative to store visual media captured by the visual media capture controller in the configured capture mode. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

[0523] In an embodiment, an electronic device 200, comprising: digital image sensors 244 to capture visual media; a display 210 to present the visual media from the digital image sensors 244; a touch controller 215 to identify haptic contact engagement, haptic contact persistence and haptic contact release or haptic contact disengagement on the display 210; and a visual media capture controller 278 to alternately record the visual media as a back camera photo or a front camera photo based upon an evaluation of the time period between the haptic contact engagement and the haptic contact release. The visual media capture controller 278 presents a single mode input icon on the display to receive the haptic contact engagement, haptic contact persistence and haptic content release. The visual media capture controller 278 selectively stores the photo in a photo library. After capturing back camera photo or front camera photo, the visual media capture controller invokes a photo preview mode. The visual media capture controller selects a frame of the video to form the photo. The visual media capture controller stores the photo upon haptic contact engagement.

[0524] FIG. 2 illustrates an electronic device 200 implementing operations of the invention. In one embodiment, the electronic device 200 is a smartphone with a processor 230 in communication with a memory 236. The processor 230 may be a central processing unit and/or a graphics processing unit. The memory 236 is a combination of flash memory and random access memory. The memory 236 stores a visual media capture controller 278 to implement operations of the invention. The visual media capture controller 278 includes executable instructions to alternately record a front camera photo or a back camera photo based upon the processing of haptic signals, as discussed below.

[0525] The visual media controller 278 interacts with a photo library controller 294, which includes executable instructions to store, organize and present photos 291. The photo library controller may be a standard photo library controller known in the art.

[0526] The processor 230 is also coupled to image sensors 244. The image sensors 244 may be known digital image sensors, such as charge coupled devices. The image sensors capture visual media, which is presented on display 210. That is, in a visual media mode controlled by the visual media capture controller 278, the image sensors 244 capture visual media and present the visual media on the display 210 so that a user can observe the captured visual media.

[0527] A touch controller 215 is connected to the display 210 and the processor 230. The touch controller 215 is responsive to haptic signals applied to the display 210. In one embodiment, the visual media capture controller 278 presents a single mode input icon on the display 210. That is, the visual media capture controller 278 includes executable instructions executed by the processor to present a single mode input icon on the display 210.

[0528] The visual media capture controller 278 communicates with the processor 230 regarding haptic signals applied to the display 210, which are recorded by the touch controller 215. In one configuration, the visual media capture controller 278 processes haptic signals applied to the single mode input icon, as detailed in connection with the discussion of FIG. 40 (B), and determines whether to record a front camera photo or a back camera photo, as discussed below.

[0529] The electronic device 200 may also include other components commonly associated with a smartphone, such as a wireless signal processor 220, a power control circuit 225 and a global positioning system processor 235. While many of components of FIG. 2 are known in the art, new functionality is achieved through the visual media capture controller 278.

[0530] FIG. 40 (A) illustrates processing operations associated with the visual media capture controller 278. Initially, a visual media capture mode is invoked 4005. For example, a user may access an application presented on display 210 to invoke a visual media capture mode. FIG. 40 (B) illustrates the exterior of electronic device 200. The Figure also illustrates the display 210. The electronic device 200 is in a visual media capture mode and presents visual media 4007. The display 210 also includes a single mode input icon 4008. In one embodiment, the amount of time that a user presses the single mode input icon 4008 determines whether a capture photo will be a front camera photo or a back camera photo. For example, if a user initially intends to take a back camera photo, then the icon 4008 is engaged with a haptic signal. If the user decides that the visual media should instead be a front camera photo, the user continues to engage the icon 4008. If the engagement is persists for a specified period of time (e.g., 3 seconds), then the output of the visual media capture is determined to be front camera photo. The back or front camera mode may be indicated on the display 210 with an icon 4010. Thus, a single gesture allows the user to seamlessly transition from a back camera photo mode to a front camera photo mode or from a front camera photo mode to a back camera photo mode and therefore control the media output during the capturing or recording process. This is accomplished without entering one mode or another prior to the capture sequence.

[0531] Returning to FIG. 40 (A), haptic contact engagement is identified 4015. For example, the haptic contact engagement may be at icon 4008 on display 210. The touch controller 215 generates haptic contact engagement signals for processing by the visual media capture controller 278 in conjunction with the processor 230. Alternately, the haptic contact may be at any location on the display 210.

[0532] Video is recorded and a timer is started 4020 in response to haptic contact engagement 4015. The video is recorded by the processor 230 operating in conjunction with the memory 236. Alternately, a still frame is taken from the video feed and is stored as a photo in response to haptic contact engagement. The timer is executed by the processor 230 under the control of the visual media capture controller 278.

[0533] Video continues to record and the timer continues to run in response to persistent haptic contact on the display. The elapsed time recorded by the timer is then evaluated by the visual media capture controller 278 against a specified threshold (e.g., 3 seconds). If the threshold is exceeded (4035—Yes), then the back camera mode change to front camera mode or front camera mode change to back camera mode (e.g. front camera mode) 4036. Then Saving or identifying time of loading or showing of or switching of front camera or back camera (e.g. front camera) 4038. Haptic contact release is identified 4040. The timer is then stopped then video is stored 4042, a frame of video is selected after loading time of front camera 4047 and is stored as a photo 4055. As indicated above, an alternate approach is to capture a still frame from the camera video feed as a photo upon haptic engagement. Such a photo is then passed to the photo library controller 294 for storage 291. The visual media capture controller 278 may then invoke a photo preview mode 4057 to allow a user to easily view the new photo.

[0534] If the threshold not exceeded (4035—No) and Haptic contact release is identified 4025. The timer is then stopped then video is stored 4030, a frame of video is selected 4047 and is stored as a photo 4058. As indicated above, an alternate approach is to capture a still frame from the camera video feed as a photo upon haptic engagement. Such a photo is then passed to the photo library controller 294 for storage. The visual media capture controller 278 may then invoke a photo preview mode 4057 to allow a user to easily view the new photo.

[0535] The foregoing embodiment relies upon evaluating haptic contact engagement, haptic contact persistence and haptic contact release. Based upon the expired time, either a front camera photo or a front camera photo is preserved. Thus, a single recording mode allows one to seamlessly transition between front camera photo and back camera photo capturing or recording.

[0536] In an alternate embodiment, the visual media capture mode is responsive to a first haptic contact signal (e.g., one tap) to record a front camera photo and a second haptic contact signal (e.g., two taps) to record a back camera photo. In an alternate embodiment, the visual media capture mode is responsive to a first haptic contact signal (e.g., one tap) to record a back camera photo and a second haptic contact signal (e.g., two taps) to record a front camera photo. In this case, there is not persistent haptic contact, but different visual media modes are easily entered. Indeed, the visual media capture controller 278 may be configured to interpret two taps within a specified period as an invocation of the front or back camera photo capture mode. This allows a user to smoothly transition from intent to take a front camera picture to a desire to take a back camera picture or allows a user to smoothly transition from intent to take a back camera picture to a desire to take a front camera picture.

[0537] FIG. 41 illustrates in an embodiment the visual media capture controller 278 which enable user to single mode visual media capture that alternately produces photos and pre-set duration of video and in the event of haptic contact engagement enables user to stop said pre-set duration of video limitation and allow user to record video up-to further haptic contact engagement for manually stopping video.

[0538] FIG. 41 explains, a computer-implemented method, comprising: receiving a haptic engagement signal 4105; starting a recording of video and starting a timer 4109 in response to receiving the haptic engagement signal 4107; receiving a haptic release signal 4111; in the event not exceeding of threshold (e.g. less than or equal to 2 or 3 seconds) (4113—No) stop timer and stop video 4115; select or extract frame(s) 4117; store photo 4121; in the event exceeding of threshold (e.g. greater than or equal to 2 or 3 seconds) (4113—Yes), check is made whether pre-set maximum duration of timer expired or pre-set maximum duration of video recorded (4125—Yes) (e.g. pre-set maximum of 10 seconds of video) stop timer and stop video; in the event of pre-set maximum duration of timer not expired or pre-set maximum duration of video not yet recorded (4125—No) (e.g. recording of less than pre-set maximum of 10 seconds of video) and receiving a haptic engagement signal 4135; stop timer (for enabling user to take more than pre-set duration of video i.e. more than pre-set 10 seconds of video) 4138; in the event of identifying Haptic Contact Engagement & Release 4140, stop video and store video 4142.

[0539] In another embodiment invoke photo preview mode 4123; accept one or more destinations including accept from user one or more contacts or groups 4150 or auto determine destination(s) 4152 based on pre-set default destination(s) or auto selected destination(s); and enable user to send to 4155 or auto send 4160 said captured photo to said destination(s).

[0540] In another embodiment invoke video preview mode 4130 or 4144; accept one or more destinations including accept from user one or more contacts or groups 4150 or auto determine destination(s) 4152 based on pre-set default destination(s) or auto selected destination(s); and enable user to send to 4155 or auto send 4160 said recorded video to said destination(s).

[0541] FIG. 2 illustrates an electronic device 200 implementing operations of the invention. In one embodiment, the electronic device 200 is a smartphone with a processor 230 in communication with a memory 236. The processor 230 may be a central processing unit and/or a graphics processing unit. The memory 236 is a combination of flash memory and random access memory. The memory 236 stores a visual media capture controller 278 to implement operations of the invention. The visual media capture controller 278 includes executable instructions to alternately record a photo or a pre-set duration of recording of video or cancel said pre-set duration of video and record video as per user need base length of video based upon the processing of haptic signals, as discussed below.

[0542] The visual media controller 278 interacts with a photo library controller 294, which includes executable instructions to store, organize and present photos 291. The photo library controller may be a standard photo library controller known in the art. The visual media controller 278 also interacts with a video library controller 296, which includes executable instructions to store, organize and present videos 292. The video library controller may also be a standard video library controller known in the art.

[0543] The processor 230 is also coupled to image sensors 244. The image sensors 244 may be known digital image sensors, such as charge coupled devices. The image sensors capture visual media, which is presented on display 210. That is, in a visual media mode controlled by the visual media capture controller 278, the image sensors 244 capture visual media and present the visual media on the display 210 so that a user can observe the captured visual media.

[0544] A touch controller 215 is connected to the display 210 and the processor 230. The touch controller 215 is responsive to haptic signals applied to the display 210. In one embodiment, the visual media capture controller 278 presents a single mode input icon on the display 210. That is, the visual media capture controller 278 includes executable instructions executed by the processor to present a single mode input icon on the display 210.

[0545] The visual media capture controller 278 communicates with the processor 230 regarding haptic signals applied to the display 210, which are recorded by the touch controller 215. In one configuration, the visual media capture controller 278 processes haptic signals applied to the single mode input icon, as detailed in connection with the discussion of FIG. 41 (A), and determines whether to record a photo or auto stop and save pre-set duration of video or based on haptic contact engagement & release record length or duration of video as per user need, as discussed below.

[0546] The electronic device 100 may also include other components commonly associated with a smartphone, such as a wireless signal processor 220, a power control circuit 225 and a global positioning system processor 235. While many of components of FIG. 2 are known in the art, new functionality is achieved through the visual media capture controller 278.

[0547] FIG. 41 (A) illustrates processing operations associated with the visual media capture controller 278. Initially, a visual media capture mode is invoked 4105. For example, a user may access an application presented on display 210 to invoke a visual media capture mode. FIG. 41 (B) illustrates the exterior of electronic device 200. The Figure also illustrates the display 210. The electronic device 200 is in a visual media capture mode and presents visual media 4170. The display 210 also includes a single mode input icon 4180. In one embodiment, the amount of time that a user presses the single mode input icon 4180 determines whether a photo will be recorded or a pre-set duration of video and further haptic contact engagement & release enable user to cancel auto stopping of video after pre-set duration of video and continue record video as per user need or up-to stop by user via further haptic contact engagement & release. For example, if a user initially intends to take a photo, then the icon 4180 is engaged with a haptic signal. If the user decides that the visual media should instead be a pre-set duration of video and in the expiry of pre-set duration timer auto stop video & auto save video, the user continues to engage the icon 4180 to start recording of video. If the engagement is persists for a specified period of time (e.g., 3 seconds), then the output of the visual media capture is determined to be video and starts recording of video. In the event of further haptic contact user can stop pre-set duration limitations and enable to continue recording of video up-to user further haptic contact and manually stops video. The video mode may be indicated on the display 210 with an icon. Thus, a single gesture allows the user to seamlessly transition from a photo mode to a video mode and therefore control the media output during the recording process. This is accomplished without entering one mode or another prior to the capture sequence.

[0548] Returning to FIG. 41(A), haptic contact engagement is identified 4107. For example, the haptic contact engagement may be at icon 4180 on display 210. The touch controller 215 generates haptic contact engagement signals for processing by the visual media capture controller 210 in conjunction with the processor 230. Alternately, the haptic contact may be at any location on the display 210.

[0549] Video is recorded and a timer is started 4109 in response to haptic contact engagement 4107. The video is recorded by the processor 230 operating in conjunction with the memory 236. Alternately, a still frame is taken from the video feed 4117 and is stored as a photo 4121 in response to haptic contact engagement and then video is recorded. The timer is executed by the processor 230 under the control of the visual media capture controller 278.

[0550] Video continues to record up-to pre-set duration of timer expired 4125. Haptic contact release is subsequently identified 4111. The elapsed time recorded by the timer is then evaluated by the visual media capture controller 278 against a specified threshold (e.g., 3 seconds). If the threshold is exceeded (4113—Yes) and pre-set duration of timer expired (4125—Yes) then timer is then stopped and video is stored 4128. If -set duration of timer not expired or not exceeded (4125—No) and identification of haptic contact engagement (4135—Yes) then stop timer 4138 of pre-set duration of video limitation and in the event of further identification of haptic contact engagement & release (4140—Yes) stop video and store video 4142. In particular, a video is sent to the video library controller 296 for handling. In one embodiment, the visual media capture controller 278 includes executable instructions to prompt the video library controller to enter a video preview mode 4130 or 4144. Consequently, a user can conveniently review a recently recorded video.

[0551] If the threshold is not exceeded (4113—No), a frame of video is selected 4117 and is stored as a photo 4121. As indicated above, an alternate approach is to capture a still frame from the camera video feed as a photo upon haptic engagement. Such a photo is then passed to the photo library controller 294 for storage 291. The visual media capture controller 278 may then invoke a photo preview mode 4123 to allow a user to easily view the new photo.

[0552] In an embodiment user is informed about remaining time of pre-set duration of video via text status or icon or visual presentation e.g. 4175.

[0553] FIG. 42 illustrates logic flow for the visual media capture system. Techniques to selectively capture front camera or back camera video using a single user interface element are described. In one embodiment, an apparatus may comprise a touch controller 215, a visual media capture controller 278, and a storage 236. The touch controller 215 may be operative to receive a haptic engagement signal. The visual media capture controller 278 may be operative to be configured in a capture mode based on whether a haptic disengagement signal is received by the touch controller 215 before expiration of a pre-set threshold of first timer, the capture mode one of a front camera video record mode or back camera video record mode, the first timer 4020 started in response to receiving the haptic engagement signal 4215, the first timer 4220 maximum threshold configured to expire after a first preset duration. The storage component may be operative to store visual media captured by the visual media capture controller in the configured capture mode. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

[0554] In an embodiment, an electronic device 200, comprising: digital image sensors 244 to capture visual media; a display 210 to present the visual media from the digital image sensors 244; a touch controller 215 to identify haptic contact engagement, haptic contact persistence and haptic contact release or haptic contact disengagement on the display 210; and a visual media capture controller 278 to alternately record the visual media as a back camera video or a front camera video based upon an evaluation of the time period between the haptic contact engagement and the haptic contact release. The visual media capture controller 278 presents a single mode input icon on the display to receive the haptic contact engagement, haptic contact persistence and haptic content release. The visual media capture controller 278 selectively stores the video in a video library. After capturing back camera video or front camera video, the visual media capture controller invokes a video preview mode. The visual media capture controller stores the video upon haptic contact engagement.

[0555] FIG. 2 illustrates an electronic device 200 implementing operations of the invention. In one embodiment, the electronic device 200 is a smartphone with a processor 230 in communication with a memory 236. The processor 230 may be a central processing unit and/or a graphics processing unit. The memory 236 is a combination of flash memory and random access memory. The memory 236 stores a visual media capture controller 278 to implement operations of the invention. The visual media capture controller 278 includes executable instructions to alternately record a front camera video or a back camera video based upon the processing of haptic signals, as discussed below.

[0556] The visual media controller 278 also interacts with a video library controller 296, which includes executable instructions to store, organize and present videos 292. The video library controller may also be a standard video library controller known in the art.

[0557] The processor 230 is also coupled to image sensors 244. The image sensors 244 may be known digital image sensors, such as charge coupled devices. The image sensors capture visual media, which is presented on display 210. That is, in a visual media mode controlled by the visual media capture controller 278, the image sensors 244 capture visual media and present the visual media on the display 210 so that a user can observe the captured visual media.

[0558] A touch controller 215 is connected to the display 210 and the processor 230. The touch controller 215 is responsive to haptic signals applied to the display 210. In one embodiment, the visual media capture controller 278 presents a single mode input icon on the display 210. That is, the visual media capture controller 278 includes executable instructions executed by the processor to present a single mode input icon on the display 210.

[0559] The visual media capture controller 278 communicates with the processor 230 regarding haptic signals applied to the display 210, which are recorded by the touch controller 215. In one configuration, the visual media capture controller 278 processes haptic signals applied to the single mode input icon, as detailed in connection with the discussion of FIG. 42 (B), and determines whether to record a front camera photo or a back camera video, as discussed below.

[0560] The electronic device 200 may also include other components commonly associated with a smartphone, such as a wireless signal processor 220, a power control circuit 225 and a global positioning system processor 235. While many of components of FIG. 2 are known in the art, new functionality is achieved through the visual media capture controller 278.

[0561] FIG. 42 (A) illustrates processing operations associated with the visual media capture controller 278. Initially, a visual media capture mode is invoked 4205. For example, a user may access an application presented on display 210 to invoke a visual media capture mode. FIG. 42 (B) illustrates the exterior of electronic device 200. The Figure also illustrates the display 210. The electronic device 200 is in a visual media capture mode and presents visual media 4207. The display 210 also includes a single mode input icon 4208. In one embodiment, the amount of time that a user presses the single mode input icon 4208 determines whether a capture video will be a front camera video or a back camera video. For example, if a user initially intends to take a back camera video, then the icon 4208 is engaged with a haptic signal. If the user decides that the visual media should instead be a front camera video, the user continues to engage the icon 4208. If the engagement is persists for a specified period of time (e.g., 3 seconds), then the output of the visual media capture is determined to be front camera video. The back or front camera mode may be indicated on the display 210 with an icon 4010. Thus, a single gesture allows the user to seamlessly transition from a back camera video mode to a front camera video mode or from a front camera video mode to a back camera video mode and therefore control the media output during the capturing or recording process. This is accomplished without entering one mode or another prior to the capture sequence.

[0562] Returning to FIG. 42 (A), haptic contact engagement is identified 4215. For example, the haptic contact engagement may be at icon 4208 on display 210. The touch controller 215 generates haptic contact engagement signals for processing by the visual media capture controller 278 in conjunction with the processor 230. Alternately, the haptic contact may be at any location on the display 210.

[0563] Video is recorded and a timer is started 4220 in response to haptic contact engagement 4215. The video is recorded by the processor 230 operating in conjunction with the memory 236. The timer is executed by the processor 230 under the control of the visual media capture controller 278.

[0564] Video continues to record and the timer continues to run in response to persistent haptic contact on the display. The elapsed time recorded by the timer is then evaluated by the visual media capture controller 278 against a specified threshold (e.g., 3 seconds). Identify haptic contact release 4222 and stop timer 4224. If the threshold is exceeded (4235—Yes), then the back camera mode change to front camera mode or front camera mode change to back camera mode (e.g. front camera mode) 4235. Then Saving or identifying time of loading or showing of or switching of front camera or back camera (e.g. front camera) 4238. In an embodiment further Haptic contact engagement & release is identified 4276. The timer is then stopped, video is stopped then video is stored 4242 or in another embodiment auto stop video after expiry of pre-set duration and store video. Then trim video before identified time of loading or showing of front camera 4245 and is stored as a trimmed video 4255. The visual media capture controller 278 may then invoke a video preview mode 4257 to allow a user to easily view the new video.

[0565] If the threshold not exceeded (4235—No) and Haptic contact engagement & release is identified 4225. The timer is then stopped then video is stopped 4230, and video is stored 4258. The visual media capture controller 278 may then invoke a video preview mode 4257 to allow a user to easily view the new video.

[0566] The foregoing embodiment relies upon evaluating haptic contact engagement, haptic contact persistence and haptic contact release. Based upon the expired time, either a front camera video or a front camera video is preserved. Thus, a single recording mode allows one to seamlessly transition between front camera video and back camera video recording.

[0567] In an alternate embodiment, the visual media capture mode is responsive to a first haptic contact signal (e.g., one tap) to record a front camera video and a second haptic contact signal (e.g., two taps) to record a back camera video. In an alternate embodiment, the visual media capture mode is responsive to a first haptic contact signal (e.g., one tap) to record a back camera video and a second haptic contact signal (e.g., two taps) to record a front camera video. In this case, there is not persistent haptic contact, but different visual media modes are easily entered. Indeed, the visual media capture controller 278 may be configured to interpret two taps within a specified period as an invocation of the front or back camera video capture mode. This allows a user to smoothly transition from intent to take a front camera video to a desire to take a back camera video or allows a user to smoothly transition from intent to take a back camera video to a desire to take a front camera video.

[0568] FIG. 43-47 illustrates various embodiments of intelligent multi-tasking visual media capture controller 278.

[0571] FIG. 2 illustrates an electronic device 200 implementing operations of the invention. In one embodiment, the electronic device 200 is a smartphone with a processor 230 in communication with a memory 236. The processor 230 may be a central processing unit and/or a graphics processing unit. The memory 236 is a combination of flash memory and random access memory. The memory 236 stores a visual media capture controller 278 to implement operations of the invention. The visual media capture controller 278 includes executable instructions to alternately record a front camera or back camera photo or a video or conduction one or more pre-configured tasks or activities or processing or executing of functions including cancel capturing of photo or recording of video or view received contents from visual media capture controller label associated contact(s) or group(s) or source(s) or broadcast live video streaming & like based upon the processing of haptic signals, as discussed below.

[0572] The visual media controller 278 interacts with a photo library controller 294, which includes executable instructions to store, organize and present photos 291. The photo library controller may be a standard photo library controller known in the art. The visual media controller 278 also interacts with a video library controller 296, which includes executable instructions to store, organize and present videos 292. The video library controller may also be a standard video library controller known in the art.

[0573] The processor 230 is also coupled to image sensors 244. The image sensors 244 may be known digital image sensors, such as charge coupled devices. The image sensors capture visual media, which is presented on display 210. That is, in a visual media mode controlled by the visual media capture controller 278, the image sensors 244 capture visual media and present the visual media on the display 210 so that a user can observe the captured visual media.

[0574] A touch controller 215 is connected to the display 210 and the processor 230. The touch controller 215 is responsive to haptic signals applied to the display 210. In one embodiment, the visual media capture controller 278 presents a single mode input icon e.g. 4322 on the display 210. That is, the visual media capture controller 278 includes executable instructions executed by the processor to present a single mode input icon on the display 210.

[0575] The visual media capture controller 278 communicates with the processor 230 regarding haptic signals applied to the display 210, which are recorded by the touch controller 215. In one configuration, the visual media capture controller 278 processes haptic signals applied to the single mode input icon or multi-tasking visual media capture controller label and/or icon or control e.g. 4322, as detailed in connection with the discussion of FIG. 44, and determines whether to record a front camera photo or a back camera photo or a front camera video or a back camera video or access pre-configured interface or execute pre-configured functions including view visual media controller associated contact related received visual media including photos or videos 4315 or cancel capturing of photo or recording of video or broadcast recorded video & like, as discussed below.

[0576] The electronic device 200 may also include other components commonly associated with a smartphone, such as a wireless signal processor 220, a power control circuit 225 and a global positioning system processor 235. While many of components of FIG. 2 are known in the art, new functionality is achieved through the visual media capture controller 278.

[0577] FIG. 44 illustrates processing operations associated with the visual media capture controller 278. Initially, a visual media capture mode is invoked 4405. For example, a user may access an application presented on display 210 to invoke a visual media capture mode. FIG. 43 (A) illustrates the exterior of electronic device 200. The Figure also illustrates the display 210. The electronic device 200 is in a visual media capture mode and presents visual media 4320. The display 210 also includes one or more visual media capture controller controls or a single mode input icons 4330 (e.g. 4321-4328). In one embodiment, based on type of receiving of haptic contact swipe the single mode input icon e.g. 4322 determines whether a front or back camera photo will be recorded or a front camera or back camera video. In one embodiment, the amount of time that a user presses the single mode input icon e.g. 4322 determines whether a photo will be recorded or a video. For example, if a user initially intends to take a photo, then the icon (4330—front camera photo or 4329—back camera photo) 4322 is engaged with a haptic signal. If the user decides that the visual media should instead be a video, the user continues to engage the icon (4330—front camera video or 4329—back camera video) 4322. If the engagement is persists for a specified period of time (e.g., 3 seconds), then the output of the visual media capture is determined to be video. The video mode may be indicated on the display 210 (at prominent place—not shown in Figure) with an icon or label or animated or visual presentation. Thus, a single gesture allows the user to seamlessly transition from a front camera to back camera mode or from a back camera to a front camera mode and from a photo mode to a video mode and therefore control the media output during the recording process. This is accomplished without entering one mode or another prior to the capture sequence.

[0578] Returning to FIG. 44, particular type of haptic contact swipe including swipe or slide left to right or right to left is identified 4407 or 4409. For example, the haptic contact engagement may be at icon or pre-defined area 4331 or icon or pre-defined area 4329 on the visual media capture controller control or label e.g., 4322 on display 210. The touch controller 215 generates haptic contact swipe signals for processing by the visual media capture controller 278 in conjunction with the processor 230. Alternately, the haptic contact may be at any location on the display 210 for single visual media capture controller for capturing or recording front camera or back camera photo or video e.g. swipe left to switch to back camera and swipe right to switch to front camera and based on haptic contact persist for particular period decide capture mode as photo (e.g. 3 seconds) or video (if more than 3 seconds) and record video up-to haptic contact release then stop video and store video.

[0579] Based on haptic contact persist after switching of front camera to back camera mode or from back camera to front camera mode or direct haptic contact engagement on current default mode icon or area e.g. left side 4331 or right side 4329 of visual media capture controller label e.g. 4322, video is recorded and a timer is started in response to haptic contact engagement or persist 4431. The video is recorded by the processor 230 operating in conjunction with the memory 236. Alternately, a still frame is taken from the video feed and is stored as a photo in response to haptic contact engagement and then video is recorded. The timer is executed by the processor 230 under the control of the visual media capture controller 278.

[0580] Video continues to record 4432 and the timer continues to run 4432 in response to persistent haptic contact 4431 on the display 210. Haptic contact release is subsequently identified 4435. The timer is then stopped 4440, as is the recording of video 4440. The elapsed time recorded by the timer is then evaluated by the visual media capture controller 278 against a specified threshold (e.g., 3 seconds). If the threshold is exceeded (4444—Yes), then video is stored 4450. In particular, a video is sent to the video library controller 296 for handling. In one embodiment, the visual media capture controller 278 includes executable instructions to prompt the video library controller to enter a video preview mode 4958. Consequently, a user can conveniently review a recently recorded video.

[0581] If the threshold is not exceeded (4444—No), a frame of video is selected 4455 and is stored as a photo 4460. As indicated above, an alternate approach is to capture a still frame from the camera video feed as a photo upon haptic engagement. Such a photo is then passed to the photo library controller 294 for storage 291. The visual media capture controller 278 may then invoke a photo preview mode 4468 to allow a user to easily view the new photo.

[0582] The foregoing embodiment relies upon evaluating haptic contact engagement, haptic swipe, haptic contact persistence and haptic contact release. Based upon the expired time, either a front camera or back camera photo or a video is preserved. Thus, a single recording mode allows one to seamlessly transition between front camera and back camera and between photo and video recording.

[0583] In another embodiment, a photo is taken upon haptic contact engagement and a timer is started (but video is not recorded). If persistent haptic contact exists, as measured by the timer, for a specified period of time, then video is recorded. In this case, the user may then access both the photo and the video. Indeed, an option to choose both a photo and video may be supplied in accordance with different embodiments of the invention.

[0584] In an another embodiment after starting of video, user is enable to (1) while haptic contact persist e.g. 4331 (to take video up-to haptic release) swipe left side e.g. 4331 or swipe right side 4329 on particular visual media capture controller e.g. 4322 (2) haptic engagement and swipe left e.g. 4331 or swipe right e.g. 4329 on particular visual media capture controller e.g. 4322 (3) directly haptic contact engagement on left side or right side area or icon of particular visual media capture controller e.g. 4322 for switching from front camera to back camera or from back camera to front camera while recording of video, so user can record single video in both front camera or back camera mode.

In another embodiment enable user to execute or provide or instruct cancel command from particular visual media controller control to cancel the capturing or recording of from or back camera photo or video via one or more type of haptic contact including swipe up or via one or more types of pre-defined user sense via one or more types of one or more sensors of user device(s) including voice command or particular type of eye movement.

[0607] FIG. 1 illustrates an electronic device 200 implementing operations of the invention. In one embodiment, the electronic device 200 is a smartphone with a processor 230 in communication with a memory 236. The processor 230 may be a central processing unit and/or a graphics processing unit. The memory 236 is a combination of flash memory and random access memory. The memory 236 stores a visual media capture controller 278 to implement operations of the invention. The visual media capture controller 278 includes executable instructions to alternately record a front camera or back camera photo or a video or conduction one or more pre-configured tasks or activities or processing or executing of functions including cancel capturing of photo or recording of video or view received contents from visual media capture controller label associated contact(s) or group(s) or source(s) or broadcast live video streaming & like based upon the processing of haptic signals, as discussed below.

[0608] The visual media controller 278 interacts with a photo library controller 294, which includes executable instructions to store, organize and present photos 291. The photo library controller may be a standard photo library controller known in the art. The visual media controller 278 also interacts with a video library controller 296, which includes executable instructions to store, organize and present videos 292. The video library controller may also be a standard video library controller known in the art.

[0609] The processor 230 is also coupled to image sensors 244. The image sensors 244 may be known digital image sensors, such as charge coupled devices. The image sensors capture visual media, which is presented on display 210. That is, in a visual media mode controlled by the visual media capture controller 278, the image sensors 244 capture visual media and present the visual media on the display 210 so that a user can observe the captured visual media.

[0610] A touch controller 215 is connected to the display 210 and the processor 230. The touch controller 215 is responsive to haptic signals applied to the display 210. In one embodiment, the visual media capture controller 278 presents a single mode input icon e.g. 4822 on the display 210. That is, the visual media capture controller 278 includes executable instructions executed by the processor to present a single mode input icon on the display 210.

[0611] The visual media capture controller 278 communicates with the processor 230 regarding haptic signals applied to the display 210, which are recorded by the touch controller 215. In one configuration, the visual media capture controller 278 processes haptic signals applied to the single mode input icon or multi-tasking visual media capture controller label and/or icon or control e.g. 4822, as detailed in connection with the discussion of FIG. 49, and determines whether to record a front camera photo or a back camera photo or a front camera video or a back camera video or access pre-configured interface or execute pre-configured functions including view visual media controller associated contact related received visual media including photos or videos 4815 or cancel capturing of photo or recording of video or broadcast recorded video & like, as discussed below.

[0612] The electronic device 200 may also include other components commonly associated with a smartphone, such as a wireless signal processor 220, a power control circuit 225 and a global positioning system processor 235. While many of components of FIG. 2 are known in the art, new functionality is achieved through the visual media capture controller 278.

[0613] FIG. 49 illustrates processing operations associated with the visual media capture controller 278. Initially, a visual media capture mode is invoked 4905. For example, a user may access an application presented on display 210 to invoke a visual media capture mode. FIG. 48 (A) illustrates the exterior of electronic device 200. The Figure also illustrates the display 210. The electronic device 200 is in a visual media capture mode and presents visual media 4820. The display 210 also includes one or more visual media capture controller controls or a single mode input icons 4830 (e.g. 4821-4828). In one embodiment, based on type of receiving of haptic contact swipe the single mode input icon e.g. 4822 determines whether a front or back camera photo will be recorded or a front camera or back camera video. In one embodiment, the amount of time that a user presses the single mode input icon e.g. 4822 determines whether a photo will be recorded or a video. For example, if a user initially intends to take a photo, then the icon (4831—front camera photo or 4829—back camera photo) 4822 is engaged with a haptic signal. If the user decides that the visual media should instead be a video, the user continues to engage the icon (4831—front camera video or 4829—back camera video) 4822. If the engagement is persists for a specified period of time (e.g., 3 seconds), then the output of the visual media capture is determined to be video. The video mode may be indicated on the display 210 (at prominent place—not shown in Figure) with an icon or label or animated or visual presentation. Thus, a single gesture allows the user to seamlessly transition from a front camera to back camera mode or from a back camera to a front camera mode and from a photo mode to a video mode and therefore control the media output during the recording process. This is accomplished without entering one mode or another prior to the capture sequence.

[0614] Returning to FIG. 49, identify haptic contact engagement on pre-defined area 4907 (4829) to take visual media in front camera mode 4924 (e.g. 4829) or identify haptic contact engagement on pre-defined area 4909 (4831) to take visual media in back camera mode 4928 (4829). For example, the haptic contact engagement may be at icon or pre-defined area 4831 or icon or pre-defined area 4829 on the visual media capture controller control or label e.g., 4822 on display 210. The touch controller 215 generates haptic contact engagement and persist signals for processing by the visual media capture controller 278 in conjunction with the processor 230. Alternately, the haptic contact may be at any location on the display 210 for single visual media capture controller for capturing or recording front camera or back camera photo or video e.g. haptic contact engagement on pre-defined area on left side to switch to back camera and haptic contact engagement on pre-defined area on right side to switch to front camera and based on haptic contact persist for particular period decide capture mode as photo (e.g. 3 seconds) or video (if more than 3 seconds) and record video up-to haptic contact release then stop video and store video.

[0615] Based on haptic contact persist after haptic contact engagement on current default mode icon or area e.g. left side 4831 for back camera mode or right side 4829 for front camera mode of visual media capture controller label e.g. 4822, video is recorded and a timer is started 4932 in response to haptic contact engagement or persist 4931. The video is recorded by the processor 230 operating in conjunction with the memory 236. Alternately, a still frame is taken from the video feed and is stored as a photo in response to haptic contact engagement and then video is recorded. The timer is executed by the processor 230 under the control of the visual media capture controller 278.

[0616] Video continues to record 4932 and the timer continues to run 4932 in response to persistent haptic contact 4931 on the display 210. Haptic contact release is subsequently identified 4935. The timer is then stopped 4940, as is the recording of video 4940. The elapsed time recorded by the timer is then evaluated by the visual media capture controller 278 against a specified threshold (e.g., 3 seconds). If the threshold is exceeded (4944—Yes), then video is stored 4950. In particular, a video is sent to the video library controller 296 for handling. In one embodiment, the visual media capture controller 278 includes executable instructions to prompt the video library controller to enter a video preview mode 4958. Consequently, a user can conveniently review a recently recorded video.

[0617] If the threshold is not exceeded (4944—No), a frame of video is selected 4955 and is stored as a photo 4960. As indicated above, an alternate approach is to capture a still frame from the camera video feed as a photo upon haptic engagement. Such a photo is then passed to the photo library controller 294 for storage 291. The visual media capture controller 278 may then invoke a photo preview mode 4968 to allow a user to easily view the new photo.

[0618] The foregoing embodiment relies upon evaluating haptic contact engagement, haptic contact persistence and haptic contact release. Based upon the expired time, either a front camera or back camera photo or a video is preserved. Thus, a single recording mode allows one to seamlessly transition between front camera and back camera and between photo capturing and video recording.

[0619] In another embodiment, a photo is taken upon haptic contact engagement and a timer is started (but video is not recorded). If persistent haptic contact exists, as measured by the timer, for a specified period of time, then video is recorded. In this case, the user may then access both the photo and the video. Indeed, an option to choose both a photo and video may be supplied in accordance with different embodiments of the invention.

[0620] In an another embodiment after starting of video, user is enable to (1) while haptic contact persist e.g. 4831 (to take video up-to haptic release) swipe left side e.g. 4831 or swipe right side 4829 on particular visual media capture controller e.g. 4822 (2) haptic engagement and swipe left e.g. 4831 or swipe right e.g. 4829 on particular visual media capture controller e.g. 4822 (3) directly haptic contact engagement on left side or right side area or icon of particular visual media capture controller e.g. 4822 for switching from front camera to back camera or from back camera to front camera while recording of video, so user can record single video in both front camera or back camera mode.

[0687] FIG. 56 illustrates real-time sending and viewing ephemeral message in accordance with the invention. FIG. 2 illustrates an electronic device 200 implementing operations of the invention. In one embodiment, the electronic device 200 is a smartphone with a processor 230 in communication with a memory 236. The processor 230 may be a central processing unit and/or a graphics processing unit. The memory 236 is a combination of flash memory and random access memory. The memory 236 stores a real-time ephemeral message controller 276 to implement operations of the invention. The real-time ephemeral message controller 276 includes executable instructions to real-time display of ephemeral messages. An ephemeral message may be a text, an image, a video and the like. In an embodiment the display time for the ephemeral message is typically set by the message sender. However, the display time may be a default setting or a setting specified by the recipient. Regardless of the setting technique, in an embodiment the message is transitory.

[0688] The processor 236 is also coupled to image sensors 244. The image sensors 244 may be known digital image sensors, such as charge coupled devices. The image sensors capture visual media, which is presented on display 210.

[0689] A touch controller 215 is connected to the display 210 and the processor 230. The touch controller 215 is responsive to haptic signals applied to the display 210. In one embodiment, the real-time ephemeral message controller 276 monitors signals from the touch controller 215. If haptic contact is observed by the touch controller 215 during the display of an ephemeral message, then the display of the existing message is terminated and a subsequent ephemeral message, if any, is displayed. In one embodiment, two haptic signals may be monitored. A continuous haptic signal may be required to display a message, while an additional haptic signal may operate to terminate the display of the message. For example, the viewer might tap the screen with a finger while maintaining haptic contact with another finger. This causes the screen to display the next piece of media in the set. In one embodiment, the haptic contact to terminate a message is any gesture applied to any location on the display 210. In another embodiment, the haptic contact is any gesture applied to the message itself. In one embodiment, the gesture is un-prompted (i.e., there is no prompt such as “Delete” to solicit an action from the user). In another embodiment, the gesture may be prompted (e.g., by supplying a “Delete” option on the display, which must be touched to effectuate deletion).

[0690] The electronic device 200 may also include other components commonly associated with a smartphone, such as a wireless signal processor 220, a power control circuit 225 and a global positioning system processor 235. While many of components of FIG. 2 are known in the art, new functionality is achieved through the real-time ephemeral message controller 276.

[0691] FIG. 56 (A) illustrates processing operations associated with the real-time ephemeral message controller 276. Initially, identify that real-time receiving of content setting is ON (5631—Yes); then detect or identify by server that particular recipient receives content item or visual media item from sender (5632—Yes); an ephemeral message is displayed 5634. A timer is then started 5636. The timer may be associated with the processor 235.

[0697] FIG. 58 illustrates processing operations associated with multi-tabs accelerated display of ephemeral messages in accordance with an embodiment of the invention and illustrates the exterior of an electronic device implementing multi-tabs accelerated display of ephemeral messages in accordance with the invention.

[0698] FIG. 2 illustrates an electronic device 200 implementing operations of the invention. In one embodiment, the electronic device 200 is a smartphone with a processor 230 in communication with a memory 236. The processor 230 may be a central processing unit and/or a graphics processing unit. The memory 236 is a combination of flash memory and random access memory. The memory 236 stores a multi-tabs ephemeral message controller 274 to implement operations of the invention. The multi-tabs ephemeral message controller 274 includes executable instructions to accelerate display of ephemeral messages. An ephemeral message may be a text, an image, a video and the like. The display time for the ephemeral message is typically set by the message sender. However, the display time may be a default setting or a setting specified by the recipient. Regardless of the setting technique, the message is transitory.

[0699] The processor 230 is also coupled to image sensors 244. The image sensors 244 may be known digital image sensors, such as charge coupled devices. The image sensors capture visual media, which is presented on display 210.

[0700] In an embodiment a touch controller 215 is connected to the display 210 and the processor 230. The touch controller 215 is responsive to haptic signals applied to the display 210. In one embodiment, the multi-tabs ephemeral message controller 274 monitors signals from the touch controller 215. If haptic contact is observed by the touch controller 215 during the display of an ephemeral message, then the display of the existing message is terminated and a subsequent ephemeral message, if any, is displayed. In one embodiment, two haptic signals may be monitored. A continuous haptic signal may be required to display a message, while an additional haptic signal may operate to terminate the display of the message. For example, the viewer might tap the screen with a finger while maintaining haptic contact with another finger. This causes the screen to display the next piece of media in the set. In one embodiment, the haptic contact to terminate a message is any gesture applied to any location on the display 210. In another embodiment, the haptic contact is any gesture applied to the message itself. In one embodiment, the gesture is un-prompted (i.e., there is no prompt such as “Delete” to solicit an action from the user). In another embodiment, the gesture may be prompted (e.g., by supplying a “Delete” option on the display, which must be touched to effectuate deletion).

[0701] The electronic device 200 may also include other components commonly associated with a smartphone, such as a wireless signal processor 220, a power control circuit 225 and a global positioning system processor 235. While many of components of FIG. 2 are known in the art, new functionality is achieved through the multi-tabs ephemeral message controller 274.
