More Information
Summary:Implementations discussed herein relate to systems, methods, and apparatuses for controlling one or more internet of things (IoT) devices via a graphical camera interface of a portable electronic device. The graphical camera interface can be presented at the portable electronic device in response to the user accessing a camera application via the portable electronic device and directing a camera of the portable electronic device at the IoT device. One or more images generated from an output of the camera can be processed to identify the IoT device that the user is intending to control. Information related to a context in which the user aimed their camera at the IoT device can be used to assist in narrowing down a selection of the IoT device from multiple different IoT devices that may be associated with the user and/or an image captured by the camera.
