摘要:
In general, techniques for using short range communication, such as near-field communication (NFC), to redirect the communication of a computing device to receive digital items selected at a kiosk may include receiving, by a computing device and from a kiosk computing device via a first communication pathway comprising short-range wireless communication, a device identifier associated with the kiosk computing device, wherein the kiosk computing device is operable to receive a selection of a digital item. The techniques may further include sending, by the computing device, a request for access to the digital item based at least in part on the device identifier associated with the kiosk computing device. The techniques may further include receiving, by the computing device via a second communication pathway, access to the digital item based at least in part on the device identifier.

In general, techniques and systems for retrieving supplemental information associated with visual media are described. In one example, a method includes obtaining, by a computing device, position information from a position device using near-field communication (NFC), wherein the position information identifies a position of the position device in relation to a portion of visual media associated with the position device. The method may also include receiving, by the computing device, supplemental information that is provided by a networked device based at least in part on the position information, wherein the supplemental information comprises additional information related to the portion of the visual media. In some examples, the position device is included within an array of position devices mounted behind the visual media.

In general, techniques and systems for selecting a read rate for short-range communication with a computing device are described. In one example, a method includes detecting, by a computing device, a trigger event. The method may also include, responsive to the detection of the trigger event, changing a near-field communication (NFC) read rate from a first read rate to a second read rate by multiplying the first read rate by a predetermined value. The method may also include generating, by the computing device, NFC signals at the second read rate. In some examples, the trigger event may include an acceleration or velocity of the computing device exceeding a threshold, detecting the computing device within a predetermined geographical location, or detecting an ambient light intensity exceeding a threshold.

A first application, operating on a first client device, may perform a task. As part of performing the task, the first application may generate a message that includes a command, data, and a list of client devices suitable for invoking the command. The first client device may determine whether the first client device is in the list. If the first client device is in the list, the first client device may transmit the message to a local application on the first client device, to further perform the task by invoking the command on the data. If the first client device is not in the list, the first client device may select a second client device from the list, and transmit, via a server device, the message to the second client device.
摘要:
A multi-dimensional function presented on a visual media including a plurality of tags associated with a plurality of parameters of the function is electronically executed using a mobile computing device. Each of the tags is interpretable by the mobile computing device. The mobile computing device interacts with two or more of the tags of the visual media to select values for two or more of the parameters of the function. The function is executed according to the selected values for the two or more parameters.
