Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

Systems, methods, and non-transitory computer readable media configured to create, process, and/or modify images are provided. Recipient image data associated with an original image captured by a second computing system can be received by a first computing system. A first intermediate image may be generated based on the recipient image data. A first viewable image for display on the first computing system may be generated based on the first intermediate image.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed: 1. A computer-implemented method, comprising: receiving, by a first computing system, recipient image data associated with an original image captured by a second computing system; generating, by the first computing system, a first intermediate image based on the recipient image data, the generating the first intermediate image comprising decoding the recipient image data based on a format that is determined by the second computing system, wherein the format is determined based on at least one of device information related to the first computing system or device information related to the second computing system; and generating, by the first computing system, a first viewable image for display on the first computing system based on the first intermediate image. 2. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , further comprising displaying, by the first computing system, the first viewable image. 3. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , further comprising providing, by the first computing system, the device information related to the first computing system to the second computing system. 4. The computer-implemented method of claim 3 , wherein the first computing system is a client device. 5. The computer-implemented method of claim 3 , wherein the second computing system is a client device. 6. The computer-implemented method of claim 3 , wherein the format is determined based on the device information related to the first computing system and information related to a third computing system, the information related to the third computing system received by the second computing system. 7. The computer-implemented method of claim 6 , wherein the second computing system is a server. 8. The computer-implemented method of claim 6 , wherein the third computing system is a client device. 9. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , wherein the recipient image data is decrypted prior to the decoding. 10. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , wherein the generating the first viewable image based on the first intermediate image comprises applying an image filter to the intermediate image. 11. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , further comprising: generating a set of intermediate images including the first intermediate image based on the recipient image data, wherein the generating the first viewable image based on the first intermediate image is based on the set of intermediate images. 12. The computer-implemented method of claim 11 , further comprising: storing, in the first computing system, the set of intermediate images; and storing, in the first computing system, the first viewable image. 13. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , further comprising receiving, by the first computing system, a second viewable image for display on the first computing system, the second viewable image being generated from a second intermediate image by the second computing system. 14. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , wherein blur associated with the viewable image is less than blur associated with the original image. 15. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , wherein the intermediate image has a first resolution and the viewable image has a second resolution. 16. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , wherein the intermediate image has a first color format and the viewable image has a second color format. 17. A system comprising: at least one processor; and a memory storing instructions that, when executed by the at least one processor, cause the system to perform: receiving, by a first computing system, recipient image data associated with an original image captured by a second computing system; generating a first intermediate image based on the recipient image data, the generating the first intermediate image comprising decoding the recipient image data based on a format that is determined by the second computing system, wherein the format is determined based on at least one of device information related to the first computing system or device information related to the second computing system; and generating a first viewable image for display on the first computing system based on the first intermediate image. 18. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium including instructions that, when executed by at least one processor of a computing system, cause the computing system to perform: receiving, by a first computing system, recipient image data associated with an original image captured by a second computing system; generating a first intermediate image based on the recipient image data, the generating the first intermediate image comprising decoding the recipient image data based on a format that is determined by the second computing system, wherein the format is determined based on at least one of device information related to the first computing system or device information related to the second computing system; and generating a first viewable image for display on the first computing system based on the first intermediate image.
