Abstract:
A first device broadcasts an intent to share data with a second device, using a first communications protocol. The first device connects to a cloud server using a second communications protocol, and shares the data with the second device on the cloud server when the second device is connected to the cloud server.
Abstract:
Example embodiments relate to recognizing embedded information from images. In this manner, the embodiments disclosed herein enable recognition of a first barcode from a first image and a first machine-readable watermark based on the first barcode. The first barcode may be decoded to obtain a first group identifier. The first machine-readable watermark may also be decoded. A first payload associated with the first machine-readable watermark may be accessed based on the first group identifier and a first reusable watermark identifier of the first machine-readable watermark.
Abstract:
Approaches and devices for processing a machine-readable link in the event of a failed scan are described. In one example, the processing may alter an image attribute corresponding to each image within the set of images, process the set of images with the altered image attribute to ascertain presence of the machine-readable link; and obtain an operational indication, wherein the operational indication is to aid a user of a computing system for subsequently scanning another machine-readable link.
Abstract:
Examples disclosed herein relate to generating a print format version with an overlaid machine-readable link. As an example, a set of machine-readable links assigned to a user account from a remote repository is obtained. In response to a print command associated with the user account, one machine-readable link from amongst the set of the machine-readable links is selected and applied onto a portion of the digital document. Thereafter, a print format version of the digital document along with the machine-readable link is generated.
Abstract:
An example implementation includes an apparatus including a processor to divide a digital image into a grid including a first grid region and a second grid region. The processor is also to generate a first grid-based watermark using shared watermark information and a first set of grid coordinates associated with the first grid region. The processor is further to generate a second grid-based watermark using the shared watermark information and a second set of grid coordinates associated with the second grid region. The processor is further to embed the first grid-based watermark into a first region of the digital image corresponding to the first grid region and to embed the second grid-based watermark into a second region of the digital image corresponding to the second grid region. The processor is further to generate a machine-readable digital image including the embedded first grid-based watermark and the embedded second grid-based watermark.
Abstract:
Examples disclosed herein relate to providing access to digital content using a machine-readable link. As an example, an annotation comprising digital content, for a portion of a digital content, is identified in response to a print request. Based on the annotations, a machine-readable link associated with the digital content is generated. Subsequently, a printable format version of the digital document comprising the machine-readable link, and excluding the annotation is obtained wherein the machine-readable link is readable by a computing device to obtain access to the digital content over a communication network.
Abstract:
In an example implementation, a processor-readable medium stores code representing instructions that when executed by a processor ping a dummy port endpoint at a signaling server on a regular basis to maintain a fixed network address translation (NAT) between a client device and the dummy port endpoint. The processor further receives a task notification from the signaling server dummy port endpoint and connects to an XMPP server to process the task. After processing the task, the processor disconnects from the XMPP server and continues to ping the dummy port endpoint at the signaling server.
Abstract:
Examples disclosed herein relate to capturing a first machine-readable link via art image capture device, retrieving a first content element associated with the first machine-readable Sink, determining whether the first content element is related to a second content element associated with a second machine-readable link, and in response to determining that the first content element is related to the second content element associated with a second machine-readable link, retrieving the second content element.
Abstract:
An example electronic device includes a watermark scanner to scan a watermark embedded on an initial page of a physical medium. The electronic device also includes a gesture sensor to detect a hand movement of a consumer associated with the physical medium. The electronic device further includes a controller to: determine a page number of the initial page based on the scanned watermark; determine a current page number based on the page number of the initial page; determine a page number of a subsequent page of the physical medium based on the detected hand movement and the current page number; and determine payoff information associated with the subsequent page based on the page number of the subsequent page.
Abstract:
Approaches for processing a machine-readable link are described. The present approaches may be implemented using a computing system coupled to an image capturing device. The image capturing device may be coupled to the computing system through a wired or wireless mechanism, or may be integrated within the computing system. In operation, a user of the computing system may activate one or more link detection processes for scanning a machine-readable link under consideration. The activation of such processes may be carried out through the execution of one or more applications installed on the computing system.
