    Abstract: Various implementations disclosed herein include devices, systems, and methods that determine the relative positioning (e.g., offset) between a mobile electronic device and a visual marker. In some implementations, the determined relative positioning and a known position of the visual marker are used to determine a position (e.g., geo coordinates) of the mobile electronic device that is more accurate than existing techniques. In some implementations, the determined relative positioning is used with a position of the mobile electronic device to crowd source the stored position of the visual marker. In some implementations, the determined relative positioning and a position of the visual marker are used to determine a position of an object detected in an image by the mobile electronic device. In some implementations at an electronic device having a processor, locally-determined locations of a visual marker are received from mobile electronic devices that scan a visual marker.

    Abstract: A method includes receiving one or more signals that each indicate a device type for a respective remote device, identifying one or more visible devices in one or more images, matching a first device from the one or more visible devices with a first signal from the one or more signals based on a device type of the first device matching a device type for the first signal and based on a visible output of the first device, pairing the first device with a second device, and controlling a function of the first device using the second device.

    Abstract: A method includes obtaining a location and a device type for one or more remote devices, and identifying one or more visible devices in one or more images, the one or more visible devices having a location and a device type. The method also includes matching a first visible device from the one or more visible devices with a first remote device from the one or more remote devices based on a location and a device type of the first visible device matching a location and a device type of the first remote device, obtaining a user input, and controlling a function of the first remote device based on the user input.
