Abstract:
Embodiments relate to leveraging automated image understanding to foster user engagement with an image. An image viewer application is provided with image analysis algorithms that determine features of an image by identifying objects in the image, recognizing faces in the image, etc. Hotspots may be added to the display of the image at locations of the features. Contextual metadata such as data about a user, user activity, other images, etc. can be used to determine which features will be provided with hotspots and what information will be associated with the hotspots. In one embodiment, the information associated with a hotspot is another image, and interactive selection of the hotspot causes the image to be both displayed and processed for hotspot augmentation. Tools may be provided to modify or edit the image based on the features found via the image analysis.

Claim (Index 10):
A computing device comprising processing hardware, storage hardware, and a display, the storage hardware storing instructions configured to cause the processing hardware to perform a process comprising:\n accessing a set of images stored on the storage hardware and displaying a user interface on the display, the user interface comprising an image display region displaying only a rendering of a currently selected image that is currently selected from the set of images, wherein the currently selected image is the only image that is displayed in the image display area; whenever a different image becomes the currently selected image:\n displaying only the currently selected image in the image display area; \n performing image analysis on the currently selected image to recognize objects in the currently selected image and determine respective locations in the currently selected image of the objects; \n obtaining metadata items based on the image analysis and/or a context associated with the currently selected image; \n automatically determining which of the objects are to be augmentation targets; \n based on the metadata items, determining (i) which objects are to be augmentation targets and/or (ii) which targets images in the set of images to associate with the augmentation targets, respectively, wherein each augmentation target has a respectively selected target image; \n adding hotspots only to locations in the image that correspond to the objects determined to be augmentation targets, wherein the hotspots comprises respective links to the respective target images; and \n responding to activation of an added hotspot, by a user input directed to the hotspot, by changing the currently selected image to be the target image that is linked to the activated hotspot.
