    Abstract: Examples relate to methods to heat a print agent deposited on a print agent, print an image on a print media and heating systems for a heating a print agent deposited on a print media. A heating system comprises a radiation emitter to irradiate a print agent deposited on a print media, a reflector to reflect a radiation emitted by the radiation emitter back to the radiation emitter, and a displacing member to shift the heating system between a pre-heating position wherein the radiation reflected back to the radiation emitter has a higher magnitude and a heating position wherein the radiation reflected back to the radiation emitter has a lower magnitude.

    Abstract: In one example in accordance with the present disclosure, a mobile device is described. The example mobile device includes an image sensor to capture an image frame. The example mobile device also includes a processor for performing simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM). The example mobile device further includes a memory communicatively coupled to the processor and storing executable instructions that when executed cause the processor to: (1) determine a current location of the mobile device in a local map based on features extracted from the image frame; (2) perform a panoramic check to determine whether a threshold number of keyframes surrounding the current location have been captured; and (3) determine whether to add the image frame to a keyframe database for local mapping based on the panoramic check.
