Enhanced video/still image correlation
First Claim
1. A method of image capture correlation comprising:
- creating a video data stream derived from a field of view of a video capture component;
capturing one or more still image frames derived from a related field of view of a still image capture component, wherein the one or more still image frames include different quality characteristics compared to the video data stream; and
providing a cross-reference association between the video data stream and the one or more still image frames, which cross-reference association facilitates future accessibility between a portion of the video data stream and a particular correlated still image frame.

Abstract
A technique processes captured data on a device, wherein selected captured data of a given quality resolution is transferred via a communication link to a separate storage location for future availability. A storage protocol may include various storage organization categories. A possible aspect may provide an identifier record to enable future accessibility to selected captured data by one or more authorized parties or approved devices or authorized recipients. In some embodiments the captured data may include both a video data stream and one or more still image frames having different quality characteristics and/or formats. Initial and ongoing coordination as well as correlation may be facilitated between video and still image data derived from related fields of view.

64. An image correlation system comprising:
-
video module with specified quality parameters for providing a video data stream derived from a field of view;
a still image module with given quality capabilities for providing one or more still image frames derived from a related field of view, which still image frames include different quality characteristics compared to the video data stream;
data record means operatively coupled with said video module and with said still image module to store selected versions of the video data stream and the still image frames; and
control means for coordinating the video module with the still image module to establish a cross-reference association between the video data stream and the one or more still image frames to facilitate future accessibility to a portion of the selected version of video data stream and/or to a particular selected version of a correlated still image frame. - View Dependent Claims (65, 66, 67, 68, 69, 70, 71, 72, 73)

74. A computer program product having instructions for executing a process that comprises:
-
creating a video data stream derived from a field of view of a video capture component having one or more specified quality parameters;
capturing of one or more still image frames derived from a related field of view of a still image capture component having given quality capabilities;
generating a stored version of the video data stream and of the captured still image frames, wherein the one or more still image frames include one or more different quality characteristics compared to the video data stream;
providing a cross-reference association that facilitates coordinated accessibility between a portion of the video data stream and a particular correlated still image frame; and
wherein the process instructions are encoded on signal or storage media. - View Dependent Claims (75, 76, 77)
