    Abstract: Implementations relate to automatic sharing of images with designated users over a communication network. In some implementations, a method includes causing display of images in a user interface on a first device, each of the images depicting a different person. The images are obtained from a library of images associated with a first user. A selection of a particular image of the images is received based on user input, and a person identifier is determined indicating a particular person depicted in the selected image. The person identifier is designated as a person sharing criterion. A first image not included in the images is obtained and programmatically analyzed to determine that the first image depicts a person that matches the person sharing criterion, and an access permission is updated to grant access to the first image to a second user of a second device over a communication network.

    Abstract: A computer-implemented method includes capturing, with a camera, a first image of a physical item at a first camera position, detecting borders associated with the physical item, based on the first image, generating an overlay that includes a plurality of objects that are positioned within one or more of the borders associated with the physical item, capturing, with the camera, subsequent images of the physical item, where each subsequent image is captured with a respective subsequent camera position, and during capture of the subsequent images, displaying an image preview that includes the overlay. The method further includes establishing correspondence between pixels of the first image and pixels of each of the subsequent images and generating a composite image of the physical item, where each pixel value of the composite image is based on corresponding pixel values of the first image and the subsequent images.
