Methods and Systems for Content Processing
TL;DR: In this paper, a variety of technologies by which existing functionality can be improved, and new functionality can also be provided, including visual search capabilities, and determining appropriate actions responsive to different image inputs.
Patent
Intuitive computing methods and systems
TL;DR: A smart phone senses audio, imagery, and/or other stimulus from a user's environment, and acts autonomously to fulfill inferred or anticipated user desires as discussed by the authors, and can apply more or less resources to an image processing task depending on how successfully the task is proceeding or based on the user's apparent interest in the task.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors discuss the use of portable devices (e.g., smartphones and tablet computers) in a variety of applications, such as shopping, text entry, sign language interpretation, and vision-based discovery.
Patent
Capture and display of annotations in paper and electronic documents
TL;DR: In this paper, a software and/or hardware facility that enables users to associate annotations with text segments contained in digital content is described. But the annotations are associated with a text segment, rather than the original content or an identifier associated with the original text segment was identified, annotations are applied to any content that utilizes the text segment in the future.
