1. A mobile video recording device comprising:
- a camera configured to record video;
a motion sensor configured to detect movement of the video recording device;
a wireless output including an antenna and configured to communicate the video;
video transmission logic configured to reduce a data size of the video communicated via the wireless output, the reduction being in response to an output of the motion sensor and proportional to the output of the motion sensor, the output of the motion sensor being indicative that the video recording device is being moved; and
a microprocessor configured to execute at least the video transmission logic.

Abstract
A communication system is configured to automatically adapt an image sequence in response to movement of a camera used to capture the image sequence. The adaptation includes a reduction in the data size of the image sequence and can occur in real-time as the image sequence is captured. The adaptation further includes restoration of the data size of the image in response to a reduction in movement of the camera. This approach allows for the communication of quality images shortly after movement of the has been reduced.

12. A mobile video recording device comprising:
-
a camera configured to record video; a motion sensor configured to detect movement of the video recording device; a wireless output including an antenna and configured to communicate the video; video transmission logic configured to reduce a data size of the video communicated via the wireless output, the reduction being in response to an output of the motion sensor, the output of the motion sensor being indicative that the video recording device is being moved, wherein the video transmission logic is further configured to communicate the video to a customer relationship management system such that a quality of the video following the detected movement is not reduced by the detected movement for more than 0.5 second; and a microprocessor configured to execute at least the video transmission logic. - View Dependent Claims (13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22)

23. A method of communicating video, the method comprising:
-
capturing a sequence of images using a camera; communicating the sequence of images to a remote destination via a wireless output; detecting an increased movement of the camera while communicating the sequence of images; reducing a data size of the sequence of images in response to the detected increased movement; detecting a reduced movement of the camera while communicating the sequence of images; and increasing the data size of the sequence of images in response to the detected decreased movement, wherein increasing the data size of the sequence of images is performed within two seconds of detecting the reduced movement. - View Dependent Claims (24, 25, 26)
