Capturing and viewing access-protected photos and videos
First Claim
1. A method performed by a camera, the method comprising:
- setting an access-protection status of a first digital image indicating that the first digital image is an access-allowed digital image based on a criterion having a first parameter while the first digital image is captured by the camera;
setting an access-protection status of a second digital image indicating that the second digital image is an access-protected digital image based on the criterion having a second parameter while the second digital image is captured by the camera;
displaying, via an image display interface, the first digital image; and
displaying, via an access-protected image display interface, the second digital image only after authenticating an access credential.

Abstract
A camera sets an access-protection status of a first digital image indicating that the first digital image is an access-allowed digital image based on a criterion having a first parameter while the first digital image is captured by the camera. The camera sets an access-protection status of a second digital image indicating that the second digital image is an access-protected digital image based on the criterion having a second parameter while the second digital image is captured by the camera. An image display interface displays the first digital image without requiring an access credential to be authenticated. On the other hand, an access-protected image display interface displays the second digital image only after authenticating an access credential.

12. A method performed by a camera, the method comprising:
-
translating light into a first digital image; saving the first digital image in a digital format in a memory of the camera; receiving a request to display the first digital image; displaying the first digital image via an image display interface of the camera based on determining that the first digital image is an access-allowed digital image; prior to translating light into a second digital image, receiving an indication that the second digital image is to be an access-protected digital image; setting a protection flag based on the indication; after translating light into the second digital image, saving the second digital image in the memory of the computing device in the digital format; associating the saved second digital image with the protection flag; receiving a request to display the second digital image; determining that the second digital image is associated with the protection flag; prompting a user for access credentials; receiving access credentials from the user; and displaying the second digital image via an access-protected image display interface after authenticating the received access credentials. - View Dependent Claims (13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18)

19. A camera, comprising:
-
a logic processor; and a storage device holding instructions executable by the logic processor to; set an access-protection status of a first digital image indicating that the first digital image is an access-allowed digital image based on a criterion having a first parameter while the first digital image is captured, set an access-protection status of a second digital image indicating that the second digital image is an access-protected digital image based on the criterion having a second parameter while the second digital image is captured, display, via an image display interface, the first digital image, and display, via an access-protected image display interface, the second digital image only after authenticating an access credential. - View Dependent Claims (20)
