  • Publication number: 20160188635
    Abstract: Technologies for automated cropping and sharing of images include an imaging device configured to capture a digital image, recognize one or more subjects represented in the image, determine the social network groups associated with the subjects of the digital image, and crop the digital image to generate one or more sub-images. Each of the sub-images includes subjects associated with a particular social network group. Each of the sub-images may be shared with the relevant social network group. Subjects may include persons, objects, or events, and may be recognized through computer vision techniques as well as using contextual data. The imaging device may receive social network data from one or more social network servers, which may be used to determine the relevant social network groups. The imaging device may also exclude subjects from the cropped sub-images based on one or more content policies. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

  • Publication number: 20160105375
    Abstract: Embodiments of techniques and systems associated with device-to-device (D2D) resource sharing are described. In some embodiments, a D2D communication channel between a first device and a second device is established and a sharing request is received at the first device, from the second device, including a credential identifying the second device. Data representative of a first resource locally available to the first device, but not locally available to the second device, is provided to the second device by the first device. Use of the first resource may be controlled in accordance with an instruction transmitted to the first device from the second device. Other embodiments may be described and/or claimed.

  • Publication number: 20150161253
    Abstract: Embodiments of apparatus and methods for contextual display are described. In embodiments, an apparatus for contextual display may include a processor, a communication module, and a contextual display module. The contextual display module may be configured to retrieve contextual information of a user having permission to view a file, and select a device among multiple devices associated with the user to display the file based at least in part on the contextual information of the user. The communication module may be configured to receive and send the file to the user. Other embodiments may be described and/or claimed.
