Abstract:
A method may include, in a computing device with a touch screen, memory and at least one processor, detecting at least one gesture event associated with the computing device, while consuming multimedia data. Upon detecting the at least one gesture event, at least one multimedia device located in a direction of the at least one gesture event and communicatively coupled to the computing device in a wireless network may be detected. At least a portion of the multimedia data may be communicated using the wireless network, to the at least one multimedia device, for consumption at the at least one multimedia device. Detecting the at least one gesture event may include detecting a finger swipe gesture from an edge of the touch screen and in an inward direction towards the touch screen.
Abstract:
Methods, systems, and media for presenting requested content on public display devices are provided. In some implementations a method for presenting content on a display device is provided, the method comprising: receiving a request from a mobile device to present content, including image data, on a display device; receiving a graphical representation associated with a user; receiving location information associated with the mobile device; receiving display device information associated with display devices, including location information associated with that display device; selecting, without user input, a first display device on which to present the content based on the location information associated with the mobile device and the location information associated with each of the plurality of display devices; and in response to selecting the first display device, causing both the graphical representation associated with the user of the mobile device and the content to be presented by the first display device.
Abstract:
Certain embodiments of this disclosure include methods and devices for outputting a zoom sequence. According to one embodiment, a method is provided. The method may include: (i) determining first location information from first metadata associated with one or more images, wherein the first location information identifies a first location; and (ii) outputting, for display, a first zoom sequence based on the first location information, wherein the first zoom sequence may include a first plurality of mapped images of the first location from a first plurality of zoom levels and the plurality of mapped images are sequentially ordered by a magnitude of the zoom level.
Abstract:
Content stored on a server may be selected using a user device and enabled on a central device. The identity of the central device may be authenticated without transmitting user credentials corresponding to the user, user device, user account, etc. A central device identifier can be sent to the server via the user device. An encrypted version of the central device identifier may be returned to the user device and to the central device. The central device can send the encrypted and unencrypted version of the identifier to the server, and the server can transmit the desired content to the remote device based on a comparison of the encrypted and unencrypted identifier.

Abstract:
Techniques are described for sharing service management on a computing system. The computing system includes a display device and one or more processors. The processors are configured to determine, based on a context associated with an object, a plurality of weighted probabilities including a respective weighted probability for each sharing service from a plurality of sharing services, wherein the context includes at least one of a characteristic of the object and a respective characteristic of at least a portion of sharing services from the plurality of sharing services, select, based on the respective weighted probabilities, a subset of sharing services, output, for display at the display device, an indication of each sharing service from the subset of sharing services, receive an indication of a user input corresponding to a selection of one of the subset of sharing services, and transmit, using the selected sharing service, an indication of the object.
