1. A method of transferring information between users, the method comprising:

  • detecting, using an image capturing device associated with a wearable communication device, an image reflecting surface;

    detecting, using a processing device, a boundary of the image reflecting surface;

    detecting a movement direction of an image of a first user reflected from the image reflecting surface;

    providing a tactile signal to the wearable communication device in response to a detection signal associated with the movement direction of the image of the first user reflected from the image reflecting surface;

    selecting an area of the image reflecting surface using an image defining gesture, the image defining gesture defining a portion of a first image within the boundary of the image reflecting surface;

    generating a control command that crops the portion of the first image in response to the image defining gesture;

    displaying, using a display device associated with the wearable communication device, the portion of the first image as an overlay on a second image to a second user; and

    removing a bright spot from the first image using a comparison of brightness associated with a region of the first image to an average brightness associated with the first image.
