Abstract
An example method includes presenting, on a first display screen associated with a first computing device, a first graphically encoded display element. The method also includes acquiring, using an image acquisition component associated with a second computing device, one or more images of the first display screen, determining that the one or more images correspond to the first display element, and responsive to determining that the one or more images correspond to the first display element, transferring a data item from the second computing device to the first computing device.
Claims45
A method comprising:
- presenting, on a first display screen associated with a first computing device, a first graphically encoded display element;
- acquiring, using an image acquisition component associated with a second computing device, one or more images of the first display screen;
- determining that the one or more images correspond to the first display element;
- and
- responsive to determining that the one or more images correspond to the first display element, transferring a data item from the second computing device to the first computing device.
A non-transitory computer-readable medium including one or more sequences of instructions which, when executed by one or more processors, causes:
- presenting, on a first display screen associated with a first computing device, a first graphically encoded display element;
- acquiring, using an image acquisition component associated with a second computing device, one or more images of the first display screen;
- determining that the one or more images correspond to the first display element;
- and
- responsive to determining that the one or more images correspond to the first display element, transferring a data item from the second computing device to the first computing device.
A system comprising:
- a first computing device;
- and
- a second computing device;
- wherein the first computing device is configured to present, on a first display screen associated with the first computing device, a first graphically encoded display element;
- and
- wherein the second computing device is configured to:
- acquire, using an image acquisition component associated with the second computing device, one or more images of the first display screen;
- determine that the one or more images correspond to the first display element;
- and
- responsive to determining that the one or more images correspond to the first display element, transfer a data item from the second computing device to the first computing device.
