Abstract: A system and method helps to control “read” and/or “write” access to electronic paper (e-paper). Informational data may be on a restricted portion of e-paper material that is protected by a security methodology accessible to authorized entities. Some embodiments maintain a record of access activity regarding the restricted portion, and a record of access activity regarding use of an item or product or service related to the e-paper informational data. Some implementations include an authorization listing of a party having a particular access privilege or authorization to make modifications to various restricted portions including an authentication region and a protected region. One possible aspect includes performing a verification analysis of data indicia in a restricted portion of the e-paper media. Additional possible system and process components may determine an authenticity status of the data indicia, and provide an output result.

Abstract: Embodiments provide an apparatus, a system, and a method. A method individualizing a presentation of content includes receiving data indicative of a physical orientation of a person relative to a display operable to present the content. The method also includes selecting a display parameter of the presented content in response to the received data indicative of a physical orientation of a person. The method further includes employing the selected display parameter in presenting the content. The method may include generating the data indicative of a physical orientation of a person relative to a display operable to present the content. The method may include receiving information indicative of a change in the physical orientation of the person proximate to the display; and changing the display parameter of the presented content in response to the received information indicative of a change in the physical orientation of the person proximate to the display.

Abstract: A computationally implemented method includes, but is not limited to: intercepting a communiqué that is determined to be affiliated with a source entity and that is addressed to an end user to prevent, at least temporarily, the communiqué from being received by a communication device associated with the end user; and releasing the communiqué to the communication device in response to at least detecting occurrence of one or more environmental aspects associated with the communication device, the releasing of the communiqué being in accordance with one or more conditional directives of the end user to conditionally obfuscate the communiqué determined to be affiliated with the source entity. In addition to the foregoing, other method aspects are described in the claims, drawings, and text forming a part of the present disclosure.

Abstract: A computationally implemented method includes, but is not limited to: detecting one or more occurrences of one or more specific patterns of usage of one or more non-communication (NC) productivity applications by one or more end users; and providing to the one or more end users, in response to said detecting, access to one or more particular messages through one or more channels of one or more NC productivity application interfaces, the one or more NC productivity application interfaces for accessing the one or more NC productivity applications by the one or more end users.

Abstract: Exemplary embodiments provide a technique that processes captured images derived from selected targeted objects in a field of view. The captured images may be transferred via a communication link to a storage location for future availability. A possible aspect may provide a cross-reference association between saved multiple exposures having different quality characteristics. In some instances an identifier record is provided to enable future accessibility to selected captured data by one or more authorized parties or approved devices or authorized recipients. In some embodiments the captured data may include both a video data stream and one or more still image frames derived from related fields of view. Stored versions of the captured images may be provided in original or altered form to be incorporated in a composite visual work.
