Patent Images
1. A computer-implemented method comprising:
- defining an activity profile, the activity profile comprising trigger points for an activity, the trigger points being values for characteristics of action achieved during engagement in the activity;
collecting data via one or more sensors of a wearable device indicative of the action of a subject associated with the wearable device during the activity; and
causing a computing device including an image capture device in communication with the wearable device to capture one or more images of the action at the trigger points indicated by the data that is collected via the one or more sensors.

Abstract
Techniques for capture of images of active subjects are described herein. In one or more implementations, a wearable device is configured to collect data regarding action of a subject associated with the wearable device during an activity. The wearable device then communicates with a user'"'"'s mobile phone or other computing device to trigger image capture in accordance with trigger points defined for the activity. This may involve streaming collected data for processing by the capturing computing device to recognize the triggers and/or sending indications of trigger points that are recognized by the wearable device.

14. A wearable device comprising:
-
a processing system; one or more sensors; and one or more modules, that when executed by the processing system, cause the wearable device to perform operations to capture images of a subject engaged in an activity including; obtaining data via the one or more sensors that is indicative of the action of the subject during the activity; and communicating indications generated based on the obtained data to control timing of image capture by an image capture device in communication with the wearable device, the image capture device implemented by a computing device separate from the wearable device. - View Dependent Claims (15, 16)

17. A computing device comprising:
-
a processing system; an image processing device; a network interface operable to establish a connection to a wearable device and exchange data with the wearable device; and one or more computer-readable storage media having instructions stored thereon that, when executed by the processing system, implement a capture module configured to; define an activity profile, the activity profile comprising trigger points for an activity, the trigger points being values for characteristics of action achieved during engagement in the activity; obtain data through the network interface communicated from the wearable device indicative of the action of a subject associated with the wearable device during the activity; analyze the data to recognize the trigger points defined for the activity that are indicated by the data; and capture one or more images of the action at trigger points responsive to recognition of the trigger points. - View Dependent Claims (18, 19, 20)
