Abstract:

The invention relates to a method for associating an object in an image with an asset of a number of assets in a financial application. The method includes receiving the image of the object comprising global positioning system (GPS) data, where the image is captured using an image-taking device with GPS functionality and processing the image to generate processed GPS data. The method further includes determining, using the processed GPS data, a geographic location of the object in the image, and identifying, using the geographic location, the object by performing a recognition analysis of the image. The method further includes associating, based on the recognition analysis, the object in the image with the asset of the assets of an owner in the financial application, and storing, in the financial application, the image of the object associated with the asset of the assets of the owner.

US Classification:

Abstract:

A graphical user interface is provided for facilitating entry of data into a telephone, personal digital assistant or other computing device having a touch-sensitive input component (e.g., a touch screen). The interface includes multiple initial contact areas associated with different input (e.g., characters, numerical values, commands), a home area and spokes positioned between the initial contact areas and the home area. The interface is manipulated using gestures. A data input gesture begins by touching in or near an initial contact area and moving to or toward the home area, generally in proximity to the corresponding spoke. Other illustrative gestures include tracing directly from one initial contact area to another (e.g., to add the corresponding data values), performing a “throwing” gesture out of the home area (e.g., to delete the last input), gesturing backward/forward in the home area (e.g., to move backward/forward through a series of fields), etc.
