Abstract: A mobile device, such as a smart phone, receives program instructions, such as program instructions to evaluate components and/or software in the mobile device. The mobile device detects a local network and determines whether an attribute of the local network matches a desired attribute, such as a service set identifier (SSID) identified in the program instructions. When the attribute of the local network matches the desired attribute, the mobile device executes the program instructions. If the attribute of the local network does not match the desired attribute, the mobile device continues to look for a matching local network before executing the program instructions.

Abstract: A user is allowed to include of social category indicators in a user profile header of an on-line posting. In response to answers to questions presented by a social category application executing on a user terminal device or a system, characteristics of a user's interests or personal traits may be determined. Using the characteristics, social category indicators are generated that include a symbol for presentation with a user profile header in a message board of a webpage. The social category application may interact with the provider website/application to substitute the social category user profile header for a standard user profile header of the webpage, so that the indicators appear on the message board(s) as part of the user's postings. The indicators in the social category user profile header allows user to more effectively identify persons with similar interests and backgrounds without engaging in lengthy text exchanges with other persons.

Abstract: A video image capture component includes a light source operable in a first spectrum, a first image detector operable in the first spectrum, a second light source operable in a second spectrum, and a second image detector operable in the second spectrum. A filtering component generates a combination image by filtering a first image obtained by the first image detector with a high-contrast filter, resulting in a high-contrast image, and masking a second image obtained by the second image detector using the high-contrast image. A compositing component creates a composite image from the combination image and a selected image. A display component displays the composite image.Alternative systems and methods for creating a combination image include techniques involving thermal imaging, laser detection, and narrow band frequency detection.
