In an exemplary embodiment, user input is received, a selected portion of a digital image is identified based on the user input, a data instance is selected, and a tag is applied to the selected portion of the digital image. The applied tag provides an association between the selected portion of the digital image and the data instance. In certain examples, a visual indicator representative of the tag is provided for display together with the tagged digital image.

Digital image tagging apparatuses, systems, and methods

In certain embodiments a computing device displays a live camera sensor view in a graphical user interface, captures a camera image, displays a visual indicator representative of the captured camera image in an image manager pane, the image manager pane and the live camera sensor view displayed together in the graphical user interface, displays, together with the image manager pane and the live camera sensor view in the graphical user interface, a selector for toggling an active input mode between the image manager pane and the live camera sensor view displayed together in the graphical user interface, and sends data representative of the captured camera image to another computing device by way of a network.

Camera data management and user interface apparatuses, systems, and methods

A system includes a processor, a display device, an input device and a memory with an application executable on the processor. The display device has a display frame of reference with an origin, in which the display device displays an object with the origin contained within the object. The object includes an object start point and the frame of reference includes a predetermined target point. In a user rotation mode the display device shows at least one rotation indicator, where one of multiple axes is associated to the rotation indicator. The object start point is indicated by a location on the rotation indicator. The input device selects the location on the rotation indicator and the processor in turn rotates the object to a new orientation by rotating the object about the associated axis to align the object start point with the target point.

One click photo rotation

In certain embodiments, a mobile device having a digital camera captures a camera image, locally stores the camera image, automatically assigns the camera image to a session based on the camera image being captured during a particular time range, and provides, for display on a display screen of the mobile device, a session specific image manager pane together with a live camera sensor view in a graphical user interface, the session specific image manager pane including data representative of the camera image assigned to the session.

A user device may detect, using a first radio associated with the user device, a presence of a location reference device; and determine a location associated with the user device. When determining the location associated with the user device, the user device is to receive location information from the location reference device, via the first, and refrain, based on detecting the presence of the location reference device, from determining the location using a second radio associated with the user device while the user device is within a communication range of the location reference device.

Power conservation on user devices having location identification hardware

In certain embodiments, a camera image stored locally by a device is published by the device, over a network, to a content distribution subsystem configured to automatically distribute the camera image to one or more predefined destinations in accordance with a distribution service. The content distribution subsystem automatically distributes the published camera image to the one or more predefined destinations in accordance with the distribution service.

In certain embodiments, a live camera sensor view and an image manager pane are displayed together in a graphical user interface ('GUI'), and the image manager pane includes a visual representation of a previously captured camera image and a visual indication of a user input to be provided by a user to cause an active input mode to directly toggle between the image manager pane and the live camera sensor view. In certain embodiments, a camera image stored locally by a device is published by the device, over a network, to a content distribution subsystem configured to automatically distribute the camera image to one or more predefined destinations. The content distribution subsystem automatically distributes the camera image to the one or more predefined destinations.

Exemplary methods and systems for managing an e-reader interface are disclosed herein. An exemplary method includes an e-reader interface management system directing an e-reader device to display a plurality of graphical objects representative of a plurality of segments of an e-publication, detecting a user interaction with a graphical object within the plurality of graphical objects and representative of a segment within the plurality of segments, and directing the e-reader device to remove at least one other graphical object within the graphical objects from the display of the graphical objects, wherein the at least one other graphical object is representative of at least one other segment within the plurality of segments that is unrelated to the segment. Corresponding methods and systems are also disclosed.

Methods and systems for managing an e-reader interface

Exemplary methods and systems for managing an e-reader interface are disclosed herein. An exemplary method includes an e-reader interface management system directing an e-reader device to display a plurality of graphical objects representative of a plurality of segments of an e-publication and arranged in a plurality of overlapping rows, detecting that a user has accessed a particular segment within the plurality of segments and represented by a particular graphical object within the plurality of graphical objects, and dynamically altering at least one display attribute associated with the particular graphical object to indicate that the particular segment has been accessed by the user. Corresponding methods and systems are also disclosed.
