Inferring and acting on user intent

A computing device for inferring and acting on user intent comprises:

• an input component to receive a first input and a second input, wherein the first input comprises data associated with a first real world object and the second input comprises a selection by a user of an image representing a second real world object;
• an input identification module to identify the first input and the second input;
• an inference module to identify a plurality of potential actions that relate to at least one of the first input and the second input and for determining from a plurality of potential actions, an action that is inferred by a relationship between the first real world object and the second real world object;
• an action module to perform the action inferred by the relationship between the first real world object and the second real world object;
• and
• a communication component to communicate the action to a second computing device.

A computer readable storage medium having computer readable program code embodied therewith, the computer readable program code comprising:

• computer readable program code to receive a first input by a computing device, the first input comprising data associated with a first real world object;
• computer readable program code to receive a second input by the computing device, the second input comprising a selection by a user of an image representing a second real world object;
• computer readable program code to identify a plurality of potential actions that relate to at least one of the first input and the second input;
• computer readable program code to determine, from the plurality of potential actions, an action that is inferred by a relationship between the first real world object and the second real world object;
• and
• computer readable program code to perform, with the computing device, the action inferred by the relationship between the first real world object and the second real world object.
