Abstract: An apparatus and methods for processing image data in multi-row strips to generate print data for colorizers of a printer.

Abstract: A hardware interrupt processing circuit converts selected hardware interrupts to an interrupt vector having bits corresponding to the selected hardware interrupts. The hardware interrupt processing circuit includes circuit assemblies that correspond to the selected hardware interrupts. Each circuit assembly includes a detector circuit and a persistent capture circuit. The detector circuit is to output a pulse responsive to the corresponding selected hardware interrupt being asserted. The persistent capture circuit is triggered by the persistent capture circuit to output a corresponding bit of the interrupt vector until a ready signal has been asserted.

Abstract: An apparatus and methods for processing image data in which an image pipeline serially processes columnar regions of a multi-row strip of the image data.

Abstract: In one embodiment, an address to which a message can be sent to an imaging device is obtained. An image is generated, the image including the address in an encoded, machine-readable format. The image is provided for display to a mobile computing device capable of reading the image in the machine-readable format. A message is received from the mobile computing device via the address.

Abstract: A method of providing photographic images of live events to a spectator includes obtaining at least one photographic image from at least one camera at a live event; providing a version of the at least one photographic image to an electronic device being used by the spectator; and receiving a selection of a the photographic image or a portion of the photographic image selected by said spectator using the electronic device.

Abstract: A system includes a client management component, a monitor component, and a hardware resource component, each of which is implemented in hardware. The client management component chooses a selected client from one or more clients for which a given task is to be fulfilled by a selected hardware resource of one or more hardware resources. The monitor component receives the given task and an identifier of the selected client from the client management component and monitors completion of the given task for the selected client by the selected hardware resource. The hardware resource management receives the given task from the monitor component, chooses the selected hardware resource that is to fulfill the given task, and launches the given task on the selected hardware resource.

Abstract: A hardware controller includes a first hardware interface, a second hardware interface, first hardware logic, and second hardware logic. The first hardware interface is to couple the hardware controller to hardware entities of a hardware device in which the hardware controller is to be included. The second hardware interface is to couple the hardware controller to a memory to receive instructions. The first hardware logic is to choose a selected hardware entity from the hardware entities. The second hardware logic is to execute the instructions in relation to the selected hardware entity.
