Patent Images
1. An image capture device comprising:
- a scene image capture system adapted to capture an image of a scene, a user image capture system adapted to capture an image of a user of the image capture device;
a trigger system adapted to generate a capture signal; and
a controller adapted to receive the capture signal and to cause an image to be captured by the user image capture system and the scene image capture system at substantially the same time, said controller further being adapted to associate the image of the user with the image of the scene.

Abstract
An image capture device and methods are provided. The image capture device has a scene image capture system adapted to capture an image of a scene and a user image capture system adapted to capture an image of a user of the image capture device. A trigger system adapted to generate a capture signal and a controller is adapted to receive the capture signal and to cause an image to be captured by the user image capture system and the scene image capture system at substantially the same time. The controller is further adapted to associate the image of the user with the image of the scene.

27. An image capture device comprising:
-
a scene image capture means for capturing an image of a scene;
a user image capture means adapted to capture an image of a user of the image capture means;
a trigger system means for generating a capture signal; and
a control means for receiving the capture signal, for causing images to be captured by the user image capture system and the scene image capture system at substantially the same time, and for associating the captured image of the user with the captured image of the scene. - View Dependent Claims (28, 29)

30. An imaging method comprising the steps of:
-
generating a capture signal at a time for scene image capture;
capturing an image of a scene in response to the capture signal;
capturing an image of the user synchronized with the scene image on the basis of the capture signal; and
associating the scene image and the user image. - View Dependent Claims (31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37, 38, 39)
