A method of task management executes at a computing device having one or more processors and memory. The memory stores one or more programs configured for execution by the one or more processors. There is received a description of a task associated with a user. Upon receipt of the description of the task, one or more entities associated with the task are identified using at least the description of the task and geographic information about the user. Information is identified for performing the task with the at least one respective entity in the one or more entities based upon an identity of the entity. This identified information for performing the task is then formatted for use by the user.

Systems and methods for task assistance

Systems and methods of detecting traffic light signal changes are disclosed. For instance, it can be determined that a user is stopped at an intersection having a traffic light. A plurality of images can be captured in response to detecting that the user is stopped at the intersection having a traffic light. The plurality of images do not depict the traffic light. A tonal shift in one or more color values associated with at least one image of the plurality of images can be detected. The tonal shift is indicative of a change in signal provided by the traffic light. A notification indicative of the change in signal provided by the traffic light can be provided to the user.

Detection of traffic light signal changes

Systems and methods are disclosed for making content elements available for use at a public computing kiosk operated by a first-party operator. The public computing kiosk can receive a wireless communication from a hand-held device utilized by a second-party end user located in close physical proximity to the public computing kiosk. The wireless communication can include information identifying a third-party provider of the hand-held device with the third-party provider and the first-party operator being different entities. The public computing kiosk can transmit a request to a computing system including information identifying the third-party provider of the hand-held device, receive a transmission including a set of content descriptors, and display the set of content descriptors to the second-party end user. The public computing kiosk can also accept selection of content descriptors and execute at least one content element corresponding to at least one content descriptor.
