## Abstract

A system includes a media device including a processor programmed to receive sensor data indicating a field of view of a user and adjust a field of view of a video capture device in the media device to correspond to the field of view of the user. The processor receives media data from the video capture device and stores the media data, together with metadata including time indicia for each segment in the media data. The processor further receives user input to generate a media content item based on the media data. The user input specifies a start time of the media content item. The processor generates the media content item from the media data, starting with the segment of the media data having a time stamp corresponding to the start time; and stores the media content item.

## Claims

### Claim 1

A system comprising a media device including a processor and a memory, the memory storing instructions executable by the processor such that the processor is programmed to:
receive sensor data indicating a field of view of a user of the media device;

receive, from the video capture device, media data;
store the media data, together with metadata including time indices for each of one or more segments in the media data;
receive user input to generate a primary media content item based on the media data, the user input specifying a start time of the primary media content item;
generate the primary media content item from the media data, starting with the segment of the media data having a time index corresponding to the start time; and
store the primary media content item.

### Claim 2 (depends on 1)

The system of claim 1, wherein the data includes a position of a chin of the user relative to a position of the media device.

### Claim 3 (depends on 1)

The system of claim 1, wherein the data includes a position of an eye of the user.

### Claim 4 (depends on 1)

The system of claim 1, wherein the media device is one of:
worn by the user; and
attached to clothing worn by the user.

### Claim 5 (depends on 1)

The system of claim 1, wherein the user input includes data specifying a mental state of the user, and the processor is further programmed to:
include the user mental state data in primary metadata associated with the primary media content item.

### Claim 6 (depends on 5)

The system of claim 5, further comprising a computing device including a second processor and a second memory, the second memory storing instructions executable by the second processor such that the second processor is programmed to:
receive, from the processor, the primary media content item and primary metadata;
select, based on the user mental state data, an audio content item; and
generate a secondary media content item, based on the primary media content item and the audio content item.

### Claim 7 (depends on 6)

The system of claim 6, wherein the second processor is further programmed to:
provide a link to allow purchasing a right to include the audio content item in the secondary media content item.

### Claim 8 (depends on 5)

The system of claim 5, further comprising a computing device including a second processor and a second memory, the second memory storing instructions executable by the second processor such that the second processor is further programmed to:
receive, from a second media device, a second primary media content item;
determine, based on a second primary metadata associated with the second primary media content item and the primary metadata associated with the primary media content item, that the second primary media content item relates to the primary media content item; and
generate a second secondary media content item based on the primary media content item and the second primary media content item.

### Claim 9 (depends on 8)

The system of claim 8, wherein each of the primary metadata associated with the primary media content item and the second primary metadata associated with the second primary media content item include data indicating a respective recording location, and wherein determining that the second primary media content item relates to the primary media content item is based at least in part on the respective recording locations.

### Claim 10 (depends on 8)

The system of claim 8, wherein each of the primary metadata associated with the primary media content item and the second primary metadata associated with the second primary media content item include data indicating a respective identity of a user of the media device and a user of the second media device, wherein determining that the second primary media content item relates to the primary media content item is based at least in part on the respective users.

### Claim 11 (depends on 6)

The system of claim 6, wherein the second processor is further programmed to:
provide the secondary media content item to a display device.

### Claim 12 (depends on 11)

receive, from a second media device, a second primary media content item;
determine, based on a second primary metadata associated with the second primary media content item and the primary metadata associated with the primary media content item, that the second primary media content item relates to the primary media content item; and
generate a second secondary media content item based on the primary media content and the second primary media content item.

### Claim 16 (depends on 15)

The system of claim 15, wherein each of the primary metadata associated with the primary media content item and the second primary metadata associated with the second primary media content item include data indicating a respective recording location, and wherein determining that the second primary media content item relates to the primary media content item is based at least in part on the respective recording locations.
