  • Patent number: 11276138
    Abstract: Systems, devices, and techniques are generally described to transmit image data. An image file including image data may be identified. The image data may be divided into a plurality of portions. The plurality of portions may include a first portion corresponding to a first position in the image data and a second portion corresponding to a second position in the image data. The image data may be modified to produce a shuffled image. The shuffled image may indicate that the first portion corresponds to a third position and the second portion corresponds to a fourth position. The shuffled image may be sent to a recipient computing device. The recipient computing device may render the first portion at the first position and the second portion at the second position to display the image data.
