Abstract: The disclosed embodiments provide a system that performs document scanning. The system includes a scanner and a computing device. To enable detection of the computing device in proximity to the scanner, the computing device may be configured to advertise a scan-receiving capability using a discovery protocol. Next, the scanner may use the discovery protocol to identify a set of computing devices in proximity to the scanner, including the computing device. The scanner may then provide the set of computing devices to a user of the scanner and obtain, from the user of the scanner, a selection of the computing device as a recipient of the scanned document. Finally, the scanner may send the scanned document to the computing device over a network connection with the computing device.

Abstract: Image transport includes receiving, at an accessory camera device, an asynchronous operation request from an electronic device for a first quantity of image data, determining, by the accessory camera device, a second quantity of image data that the accessory camera device is capable of transmitting to the asynchronous operation request, transmitting an indication of the second quantity of image data to the electronic device, and sending a response comprising the second quantity of image data to the electronic device.
