A method, in an application executing at a client device, includes: receiving a plurality of video feeds, each video feed of the plurality of video feeds corresponding to a respective remote camera of a plurality of remote cameras, where the video feeds are received concurrently by the device from a server system communicatively coupled to the remote cameras; displaying a first user interface, the first user interface including a plurality of user interface objects, each user interface object of the plurality of user interface objects being associated with a respective remote camera of the remote cameras; and displaying in each user interface object of the plurality of user interface objects the video feed corresponding to the respective remote camera with which the user interface object is associated, where at least one of the video feeds is displayed with cropping.

Methods and systems for presenting multiple live video feeds in a user interface

A computing device is associated with one or more electronic devices in a smart home environment, the smart home environment having a plurality of environment statuses. A current environment status of the plurality of environment statuses is identified for the smart home environment. Based on the current environment status of the smart home environment, one of a plurality of different feature sets is determined for a smart home application executable on the computing device for interacting with the smart home environment. The determined feature set includes selectable commands for performing device functions associated with the current environment status. The determined feature set is provided to an instance of the smart home application, thereby enabling the instance to offer user interactions consistent with the selectable commands.

In a method of fully-integrated rapid synthetic material prototyping, a material for prototyping is selected based on pre-existing criteria. A matching composition of elements or compounds of the material is selected using at least one of materials modeling software, estimated best-choice methods, and personal experience. A predetermined amount for each element or compound of the matching composition is determined to form at least one casting, the size of the casting being determined in advance. The predetermined amounts of the matching composition are mixed. The predetermined amounts of the matching composition are melted or processed to form the casting. The casting is manufactured and processed into at least one sample. Final material properties of the at least one sample are measured. The final material properties of the at least one sample are compared to the pre-existing criteria.

Display screen with graphical user interface

The various embodiments described herein include methods, devices, and systems for presenting video feeds in a user interface. In one aspect, a method includes: (1) receiving a request to execute an application for communicating with a plurality of smart devices, including a plurality of cameras; (2) in response to receiving the request, establishing a connection for each of at least a subset of the cameras; (3) identifying a user interface for display to a user via the display, the user interface including a video feed from a particular camera; (4) after identifying the user interface, determining whether a connection has been established for the particular camera; (5) in accordance with a determination that the connection has been established for the particular camera, requesting, via the connection, the video feed for the particular camera; and (6) displaying the user interface with the video feed for the particular camera.

Methods and devices for establishing connections with remote cameras

The various embodiments described herein include methods, devices, and systems for presenting smart home information. In one aspect, a method includes: (1) determining that a first set of smart devices correspond to a first space of a plurality of spaces of a dwelling; (2) displaying a first user interface including: (a) displaying a first interface section corresponding to the first space; and (b) displaying, within the first interface section, a plurality of user interface objects corresponding to the first set of smart devices, where each user interface object of the plurality of user interface objects corresponds to a respective smart device of the first set of smart devices; (3) detecting a user selection of a particular user interface object; and (4) in response to detecting the user selection of the particular user interface object, displaying a second user interface that includes additional information regarding the corresponding smart device.
