Image rendering based on location identifiers

Abstract

Techniques for providing location identifiers of devices to render image data comprising faces are described. According to an example of the present subject matter, a face present in image data is detected. A contact identifier corresponding to the face is obtained and a location identifier of a device to render image data is sent to the contact identifier.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . An electronic device comprising:
 a communication engine to:
 receive a job to reproduce an image; 
   a face detection engine, coupled to the communication engine, to:
 detect a face present in the image; 
   a privacy protection engine, coupled to the face detection engine, to:
 obtain a contact identifier associated with the face; and 
 send job information corresponding to the job to the contact identifier, the job information comprising a location identifier of the electronic device. 
   
     
     
         2 . The electronic device as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the privacy protection engine is to cause completion of the job in accordance with privacy instructions associated with the contact identifier, the privacy instructions comprising rules for modification of a reproduced image based on the job information. 
     
     
         3 . The electronic device as claimed in  claim 2 , wherein the privacy protection engine is to cause modification of the image to obfuscate the face in the reproduced image. 
     
     
         4 . The electronic device as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein to obtain the contact identifier associated with the face, the privacy protection engine is to:
 provide image data corresponding to the face present in the image to a user identification system; and   receive, from the user identification system, the contact identifier based on the image data.   
     
     
         5 . A non-transitory computer-readable medium comprising computer-readable instructions executable by a processing resource to:
 detect a face to be present in an image data to be rendered by a destination device;   obtain a contact identifier corresponding to the face;   send a location identifier of the destination device to the contact identifier; and   render the image data based on privacy instructions associated with the contact identifier.   
     
     
         6 . The non-transitory computer-readable medium as claimed in  claim 5  further comprising computer-readable instructions executable to:
 extract face descriptors of the face from the image data; 
 identify a user corresponding to the face by comparing the extracted face descriptors with face descriptors of users stored in a database; and 
 retrieve the contact identifier of the identified user from the database. 
 
     
     
         7 . The non-transitory computer-readable medium as claimed in  claim 5 , wherein the location identifier is a serial number of the destination device, a device name of the destination device, an internet protocol (IP) address of the destination device, a current location of the destination device, or a combination thereof. 
     
     
         8 . The non-transitory computer-readable medium as claimed in  claim 5 , wherein the destination device is a printer. 
     
     
         9 . The non-transitory computer-readable medium as claimed in  claim 6  further comprising computer-readable instructions executable to:
 receive images of faces of the users; and 
 store face descriptors pertaining to the faces in the database. 
 
     
     
         10 . A method, comprising:
 detecting a face to be present in an image data to be rendered by a destination device;   obtaining a contact identifier corresponding to the face;   sending a location identifier of the destination device to the contact identifier; and   rendering the image data based on privacy instructions associated with the contact identifier.   
     
     
         11 . The method as claimed in  claim 10  further comprising:
 extracting face descriptors of the face from the image data; 
 identifying a user corresponding to the face by comparing the extracted face descriptors with face descriptors of users stored in a database; and 
 retrieving the contact identifier of the identified user from the database. 
 
     
     
         12 . The method as claimed in  claim 10 , wherein the location identifier is a serial number of the destination device, a device name of the destination device, an internet protocol (IP) address of the destination device, a current location of the destination device, or a combination thereof. 
     
     
         13 . The method as claimed in  claim 10 , wherein the destination device is a printer. 
     
     
         14 . The method as claimed in  claim 11  further comprising:
 receiving images of faces of the users; and 
 storing face descriptors pertaining to the faces in the database.
