How to get Signatures/UserAgents from device model
Using Java
Device detection is usually expected to take a user agent as an input and use it to return a device with the relevant properties. But what if you want to find signatures/user agent strings associated with a particular property? Read this article to find out how to use your 51Degrees data file to retrieve device signatures based on specific strings, contained in selected properties.

Image Resizing For Mobile Devices
Using 51Degrees Image Optimiser In .NET, PHP and Java
Images and graphics can often cause websites to take a significant amount of time to load and constitute a large chunk of traffic. This is especially a problem for devices with slow Internet connection. Using RWD does not eliminate this problem either. This article will demonstrate how easy it is to use 51Degrees Image Optimiser and provide two examples in PHP.

Gain Valuable Insights From Web Logs With Device Detection
Use a few lines of Java and device detection to analyse web logs
Device detection brings meaning to user agents. When used in aggregate analysis of web log files insights can be gained about the characteristics of device accessing a web site. This information can then be used to make smarter design decisions improving user experience and return on investment. Properties available include screen size, supported input methods, web browser capabilities and much more.
This example is written in Java and can be downloaded directly from our website.
