Abstract
An image is captured within an application transaction. Identifying information corresponding to the captured image is obtained and displayed for user confirmation. The identifying information is entered into an appropriate place within the transaction.
Claims20
A computing system comprising:
- a processor;
- and
- memory storing instructions executable by the processor, wherein the instructions configure the computing system to:
- receive, from a client device that is remote from the computing system:
- image data representing a first image associated with an application on the client device;
- and
- context data that identifies an operational context of the application and is indicative of a task to be performed in the application relative to the first image;
- based on the first image and the application context,
- select, from an image source, a second image based on a correspondence between the second image and the first image;
- obtain information associated with the second image;
- and
- send the second image and the information to the client device.

A computing system comprising:
- a processor;
- and
- memory storing instructions executable by the processor, wherein the instructions, when executed, configure the computing system to:
- receive an image associated with an application on a client device that is remote from the computing system;
- determine an application context that is associated with the first image and indicative of a task to be performed in the application relative to the first image;
- based on the application context, select an image source from a plurality of image sources;
- identify a second image that is stored in association with the selected image source and corresponds to the first image;
- obtain information that is pre-associated with the second image;
- and
- send the information to the application.

A method performed by a computing system, the method comprising:
- receiving, from a client device that is remote from the computing system, image data representing a first image associated with an application on the client device;
- receiving, from the client device in addition to the image data, context data that identifies a context of the application on the client device and is indicative of a user-selected operation associated with the first image in the application;
- based on the first image and the application context,
- obtaining, from an image source, a second image that corresponds to the first image;
- and
- obtaining information associated with the second image;
- and
- sending the second image and the information to the client device.
