Techniques for image-based search using touch controls are described. An apparatus may comprise: a processor circuit; a gesture component operative on the processor circuit to receive gesture information from a touch-sensitive screen displaying an image and generate a selection area corresponding to the gesture information; a capture component operative on the processor circuit to extract an image portion of the image corresponding to the selection area; and a search component operative on the processor circuit to perform an image-based search using the extracted image portion. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

Techniques for image-based search using touch controls

Technologies for web-based game execution include a computing device with a web rendering engine and a native game engine library. The web rendering engine establishes a scripting environment that issues calls to a game engine interface established by the web rendering engine. The scripting environment may be a JavaScript engine. In response to calls to the game engine interface, the game engine interface issues calls to the native game engine library. The native game engine library issues native graphics commands to a graphics bridge of the computing device. The native graphics commands may be OpenGL calls. The graphics bridge translates the native graphics commands to a web graphics context, which renders graphical game content to a web content element of the web rendering engine. The web graphics context may be a WebGL context, and the web content element may be a canvas element. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

Technologies for native game experience in web rendering engine

Embodiments of a system and method for enhanced video performance in a video playback system are generally described herein. In some embodiments, a video frame from a video element in a web page, which is to be presented in a web browser and is unobscured by any other elements associated with the web page, the web browser, or a user interface, is directly rendered by a hardware decoder and composited with any associated web content or other elements directly to a video playback display device. When a video frame from the video element is obscured by another element the video frame is rendered by a processor in the video playback display device in order to incorporate the non-video graphics element on the video playback device.
