Systems, methods, and apparatus for providing image shortcuts for an assistant application
Generating and/or utilizing image shortcuts that cause one or more corresponding computer actions to be performed in response to determining that one or more features are present in image(s) from a camera of a computing device of a user (e.g., present in a real-time image feed from the camera). An image shortcut can be generated in response to user interface input, such as a spoken command. For example, the user interface input can direct the automated assistant to perform one or more actions in response to object(s) having certain feature(s) being present in a field of view of the camera. Subsequently, when the user directs their camera at object(s) having such feature(s), the assistant application can cause the action(s) to be automatically performed. For example, the assistant application can cause data to be presented and/or can control a remote device in accordance with the image shortcut.
1. A method implemented by one or more processors, the method comprising:
processing one or more images generated by a camera;
determining, based on the processing, that one or more of the images include a particular user;
responsive to determining that the one or more images include the particular user and responsive to determining that one or more temporal conditions, associated with generation of the one or more images, are satisfied:
invoking an image shortcut setting, wherein the image shortcut setting is generated in response to one or more previous user inputs,
wherein the one or more previous user inputs define one or more computer actions to be performed by an automated assistant in response to determining that the particular user is included in images when the temporal conditions are satisfied, and
wherein invoking the image shortcut setting causes the automated assistant to perform the one or more computer actions.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the one or more computer actions include transmitting a command, wherein transmitting the command causes a state of at least one peripheral device to be altered.
3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the one or more computer actions include transmitting a command via an application programming interface.
4. The method of claim 1 , wherein processing the one or more images comprises processing the one or more images using a neural network model to generate output.
5. The method of claim 4 , wherein determining, based on the processing, that one or more of the images include the particular user comprises determining, based on the output, that one or more of the images include the particular user.
6. The method of claim 5 , wherein the one or more processors are of a client device.
7. The method of claim 1 , wherein the one or more computer actions performed by the automated assistant include transmitting a generated query, receiving responsive data in response to transmitting the generated query, and causing at least a portion of the responsive data to be rendered at a computing device that includes the camera.
8. The method of claim 1 , wherein the one or more computer actions performed by the automated assistant include transmitting an electronic communication.
9. The method of claim 8 , wherein the one or more computer actions include transmitting a command, wherein transmitting the command causes a state of at least one peripheral device to be altered.
10. The method of claim 1 , wherein the one or more temporal conditions include a time.
11. The method of claim 1 , wherein the one or more temporal conditions include a day of the week.
12. The method of claim 1 , wherein the one or more temporal conditions include a time and a day of the week.
13. A system, comprising:
a camera;
a microphone;
a display device;
a speaker;
one or more processors in communication with the camera, the microphone, the display device, and the speaker; and
memory configured to store instructions that, when executed by one or more of the processors, cause one or more of the processors to:
process one or more images generated by the camera;
determine, based on the processing, that one or more of the images include a particular user;
responsive to determining that the one or more images include the particular user and determining that one or more temporal conditions, associated with generation of the one or more images, are satisfied:
invoke an image shortcut setting, wherein the image shortcut setting is generated in response to one or more previous user inputs,
wherein the one or more previous user inputs define one or more computer actions to be performed by an automated assistant in response to determining that the particular user is included in images when the temporal conditions are satisfied, and
wherein invoking the image shortcut setting causes the automated assistant to perform the one or more computer actions.
14. The system of claim 13 , wherein the one or more computer actions include transmitting a command, wherein transmitting the command causes a state of at least one peripheral device to be altered.
15. The system of claim 13 , wherein the one or more computer actions include transmitting a command via an application programming interface.
16. The system of claim 13 , wherein in processing the one or more images one or more of the processors are to process the one or more images using a neural network model to generate output, and wherein in determining, based on the processing, that one or more of the images include the particular user one or more of the processors are to determine, based on the output, that one or more of the images include the particular user.
17. The system of claim 13 , wherein the one or more computer actions performed by the automated assistant include transmitting a generated query, receiving responsive data in response to transmitting the generated query, and causing at least a portion of the responsive data to be rendered at the display device.
18. The system of claim 13 , wherein the one or more computer actions performed by the automated assistant include transmitting an electronic communication.
19. The system of claim 18 , wherein the one or more computer actions further include transmitting a command, wherein transmitting the command causes a state of at least one peripheral device to be altered.
20. The system of claim 13 , wherein the one or more temporal conditions include a time and a day of the week.
