  • Patent number: 10742749
    Abstract: In one example of the disclosure, establishment data for a plurality of hotspots is accessed, with each hotspot being linked to a hotspot payoff. Presence data indicative of a mobile device detecting a target hotspot is received via a network. An alternatives list for the target hotspot is determined based on an identification of the target hotspot and the establishment data. The hotspot payoff is caused to be sent to the mobile device for display, the payoff including the alternatives list.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 10530729
    Abstract: An example processor-implemented method for retrieving a video in accordance with the present disclosure is receiving an entry of a name tag identifying a first user in a video application, assigning a second user as a contact to the first user based on the received entry of the name tag in the video application, receiving, by a viewing module of the video application, an image of a still frame extracted from a portion of a video, wherein the name tag is associated with the still frame, and the video is associated with the first user, generating, by the viewing module of the video application, a trigger based on the received image, identifying the video based on the generated trigger, and providing permission for the second user to receive the video based on a verification that the second user is a contact of the first user.

  • Patent number: 10367818
    Abstract: A system receives a user identifier and a link identifier to identify a machine-readable link in an image captured by a first device. In response to determining that the user identifier indicates a user having an administrative privilege with respect to the machine-readable link, the system sends, to the first device, a response containing information to allow performance of management with respect to the machine-readable link.

  • Patent number: 9953199
    Abstract: Example implementations relate to using an auxiliary image to identify an image analysis mechanism associated with a main image. For example, a computing device may include a processor and an image capture device. The processor may capture with the image capture device a representation of a combined image. The combined image may include a main image and an auxiliary image. The processor may also identify the auxiliary image in the representation of the combined image and decode the identified auxiliary image via an auxiliary image decoding mechanism to determine image analysis mechanism identification information associated with the main image. The processor may further determine, based on the image analysis mechanism identification information, a main image analysis mechanism useable to determine an identifier associated with the main image. The auxiliary image decoding mechanism is different than the main image analysis mechanism.

  • Publication number: 20150161252
    Abstract: An example processor-implemented method for retrieving multimedia data in accordance with the present disclosure is determining whether each of a plurality of still frames satisfies at least one trigger qualification process for a trigger generation process, presenting for selection still frames from the plurality of still frames if the still frames satisfy the at least one trigger qualification process for a trigger generation process, receiving a selection of a still frame from among the presented still frames, and performing the trigger generation process on the selected still frame to generate a trigger for the selected still frame.

  • Publication number: 20120221967
    Abstract: A method for validating an object with data can include obtaining a dashboard interface object. The dashboard interface object can include dashboard object data. Data can be stored on an information server and can be an intended basis for the dashboard object data. The stored data can be compared with the dashboard object data. The dashboard interface object can be validated when the dashboard object data is a desired result from the stored data based on the comparison.
