34. A camera comprising:
-
a behaviour memory that stores at least one behaviour that controls automated image analysis and capture of images by the camera; and
a behaviour controller that controls input and output of behaviours between the behaviour memory and another camera having another behaviour memory.
-
- 35. A behaviour server that stores a plurality of camera behaviours, wherein the behaviour server is arranged to establish a communications channel with a camera, and a user can upload a camera behaviour to the behaviour server.

37. A method of modifying operation of a camera having a behaviour memory, the method comprising;
-
monitoring a position of the camera; and
in response to reaching a predetermined geographical position, implementing a new behaviour.

38. A method of modifying operation of a camera having a behaviour memory, the method comprising;
-
monitoring a position of the camera; and
in response to reaching a predetermined geographical position, alerting a user to the option of implementing a new behaviour.

-
39. A camera comprising a behaviour memory storing at least one behaviour that controls at least automated image analysis and capture of images by the camera, wherein the camera is responsive to geographical position, and in response to reaching a predetermined geographical position, the camera implements a new behaviour.
-
40. A camera comprising a behaviour memory storing at least one behaviour that controls at least automated image analysis and capture of images by the camera, wherein the camera is responsive to geographical position, and in response to reaching a predetermined geographical position, the camera alerts a user to the option of implementing a new behaviour.

41. A method of modifying operation of a camera having a behaviour memory, the method comprising:
-
monitoring presence of at least one beacon; and
in response to being in the presence of the beacon, implementing a new behaviour. - View Dependent Claims (42)

43. A method of modifying operation of a camera having a behaviour memory, the method comprising:
-
monitoring presence of at least one beacon; and
in response to being in the presence of the beacon, alerting a user to the option of implementing a new behaviour.
-
- 44. A camera having a behaviour memory that stores at least one behaviour controlling automated image analysis and capture of images by the camera, wherein the camera is responsive to at least one beacon, and in response to being in the presence of the beacon, the camera implements a new behaviour.
-
46. A camera having a behaviour memory that stores at least one behaviour controlling automated image analysis and capture of images by the camera, wherein the camera is responsive to at least one beacon, and in response to being in the presence of the beacon, the camera alerts a user to the option of implementing a new behaviour.
- 47. A behaviour beacon arranged to transmit a signal that can be received and interpreted by suitably configured mobile devices for invoking a change in operation of an image capture device.
-
49. A mobile device comprising:
-
a behaviour memory that stores at least one behaviour for controlling automated image analysis and capture of images by the mobile device; and
a behaviour exchange controller that controls the exchange of behaviours with the behaviour memory, including output of behaviours from the behaviour memory.

-
50. A system of modifying operation of a camera having a behaviour memory, comprising:
-
means for monitoring presence of at least one beacon; and
in response to being in the presence of the beacon, means for implementing a new behaviour. - View Dependent Claims (51, 52)
