A server in communication with a first device capable of receiving input from a camera attached to the first device, and a second device capable of displaying output, is provided. The server is configured to receive, from the first device, data relating to characteristics of the camera and characteristics of an image obtained by the camera of a screen of the second device; determine a screen pixel length of the screen; and provide instructions to the second device to display on the screen an object at a desired visual angle in response to the data received from the second device and the screen pixel length, while the first device is positioned at an arbitrary distance from the screen.

A system and method for communicating at least one of updated configuration information and hardware setup recommendations to a user of an ID decoding vision system is provided. An image of an object containing one or more IDs is acquired with a mobile device. The ID associated with the object is decoded to derive information. Physical dimensions of the ID associated with the object are determined. Based on the information and the dimensions, configuration data can be transmitted to a remote server that automatically determines setup information for the vision system based upon the configuration data. The remote server thereby transmits at least one of (a) updated configuration information to the vision system and (b) hardware setup recommendations to a user of the vision system based upon the configuration data.

A communication device, method and computer program product support concurrently receiving an embedded subscriber identity module (eSIM) profile and non-eSIM digital content from separate servers to enable service from a selected carrier. The communication device receives carrier destination data. The communication device requests download of the eSIM profile associated with a selected carrier from a subscription or carrier server based on the identified carrier destination. The communication device receives, via the network interface, digital content associated with the selected carrier and a configuration of the communication device from a configuration manager hosted on a configuration server. The digital content enables functionality via the selected carrier. The communication device installs the eSIM profile in the eSIM.

Communication between an owner of a lost tracking device and a finder of a lost tracking device is established. A tracking system receives an identifier of a tracking device and a request for a web page from a mobile device that has captured an image of a smart code on the tracking device. The smart code is embedded with a URL to the web page. The system displays the web page on the mobile device and prompts the user to provide a location of the mobile device. The location is associated with the identifier of the tracking device. A notification indicating the location of the tracking device is generated for the owner. The owner is prompted to provide information to establish contact with the finder of the device, and the web page is populated with the owner's provided information for display on the finder's mobile device.

A Methods and application for mobile devices that allow users to engage in an audio and/or video call using QR code. The system comprises a call service system and a mobile app to be executed on the user's mobile device for initiating a call and receiving a call. Contact information of one or more call recipient are recorded in a ping tag. The QR code is generated from a network call-placing process identifying the said ping tag as the call destination. Using a default camera app on a mobile device, the present invention allows a caller to simply scans QR code to place a call to call recipient(s) associated with the ping tag of the present invention through the call service system.

The present disclosure provides a user interface process flow for posting content on a display device. The disclosed techniques include a user interface process that initiates a connection that enables a host device to receive content from a guest device in a secure and discrete manner. The host device utilizes one or more graphical elements to invoke a user input at the host device to verify that the user is physically present at the host device. In response to the user input, a server generates a connection identifier that is communicated to, and displayed at, the host device. The connection identifier and an address of a server are displayed at, or otherwise communicated from, the host device to a guest device. The guest device uses the connection identifier to establish a connection with the host device for delivery of content from the guest device for display on the host device.

Systems and methods for guided personal identity based actions are provided. In example embodiments, a user-specified action from a first user device of a first user is received. The user-specified action pertains to the first user and uses data of the first user when performed. The user-specified action is linked to an identifier. An indication of the identifier is received from a second user device of a second user. In response to receiving the indication of the identifier, the user-specified action linked to the identifier is identified, the data of the first user is accessed, a user interface that includes an option to perform the user-specified action using the data of the first user is generated, and the generated user interface is presented on the second user device.

An information processing apparatus includes a camera, a display device, a touch panel, and a control device. The control device functions as a controller that, upon specification of, based on a trajectory of a swipe gesture accepted by the touch panel on an image captured by the camera and being displayed on the display device, a strip-shaped region containing start and end points of the swipe gesture and having a predetermined constant width perpendicular to a direction of the swipe gesture, recognizes a text in the specified region, extracts from the recognized text a title of an event and a date of the event, associates the extracted title of the event and date with each other, and sets the associated title of the event and date as schedule data.
