Embodiment Construction

[0020] Embodiments of techniques for using a server to perform remote function calls to obtain information associated with captured images (and audio) will be described below. In the following description, numerous specific details are set forth in order to provide a thorough understanding of the present invention. One skilled in the art will recognize, however, that the invention may be practiced without one or more of the details, or with other methods, components, materials, and the like. In other instances, known structures, materials, or operations are not shown or described in detail to avoid obscuring aspects of the invention.

[0021] Reference to "one embodiment" or "an embodiment" in this specification means that a specific function, structure or feature described with respect to the embodiment is included in at least one embodiment of the present invention. Thus, the appearances of the phrases "in one embodiment" or "in an embodiment" in various places in this spec...

Abstract

Images, audio, biometric information, and other data is captured by a user device. The captured data is sent to a server that pre-processes and then decodes the captured data to identify its contents. Once identified, the captured data is associated with a function string that specifies a function and parameters that correspond to the captured data. The function is called and executed to provide information back to the user device that is relevant to the captured data, or to initiate other operations. The relevant information to return to the user device can include product information, translations, auction data, electronic device settings, audio, and others. Operations that may be initiated include software registration, people searches, or user authentication to allow access to restricted services.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates generally to image capture and processing techniques and data communication over networks, and in particular, but not limited to, to the capture and communication of one-dimensional (1D) or two-dimensional (2D) images or audio through user equipment, using remote function Called to obtain image / audio related information, return the obtained information to the user device and / or authenticate the user device. Background technique [0002] The Internet is one of the ubiquitous and popular tools for obtaining information on almost any subject. For example, Internet users (sometimes referred to simply as Web "surfers") can obtain information about products they wish to purchase (such as prices, product descriptions, manufacturer information, etc.), statistical information about favorite sports teams or athletes, information about travel Informative content of the destination and so on. In fact, almost everywhere, people find ...
