Abstract
Exemplary embodiments provide a technique that processes captured images derived from selected targeted objects in a field of view. The captured images may be transferred via a communication link to a storage location for future availability. A possible aspect may provide a cross-reference association between saved multiple exposures having different quality characteristics. In some instances an identifier record is provided 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 derived from related fields of view. Stored versions of the captured images may be provided in original or altered form to be incorporated in a composite visual work.

37. A method of selectivity for a composite visual work comprising:
-
identifying a collection of captured images;
associating rights-related information with one or more component elements of the captured images;
presenting a representation of one or more of the captured images to be accessible for viewing by a user; and
enabling compliance with the rights-related information in connection with a selection of a specified component element of the captured images as a possible component element for future incorporation in a composite work. - View Dependent Claims (38, 39, 40, 41, 42, 43, 44, 71, 72, 73, 74, 75, 76, 77, 78, 79, 80, 81, 82, 83, 84, 85, 86, 87, 88, 89)

45. A computer program product having one or more computer programs on carrier media bearing instructions for executing the following process;
-
displaying a representation of one or more captured images;
providing a user-interface with accessibility to the representation of the captured images in order to facilitate a user'"'"'s selection of a specified visual component as a possible component element to be incorporated in a future composite work;
providing an input technique that enables identification of the user'"'"'s selection of the specified visual component;
providing user accessibility to rights-related information that includes usage rights for the specified visual component, and establishing a record of the user'"'"'s selection of the specified visual component as the possible component element to be incorporated in the future composite work. - View Dependent Claims (46, 47, 48, 49, 90, 91, 92)

50. An image access system comprising:
-
a computerized user-interface for facilitating selection of one or more visual components to be considered for future availability to be incorporated in a composite work;
a data record that includes an identification of one or more captured images having a possible visual component that is accessible for display and retrieval;
a further data record that includes rights-related information associated with the one or more captured images;
a display module operatively coupled with the computerized user-interface to enable viewing of a representation of the possible visual component; and
a processing module for accomplishing retrieval of `an original or altered version of the possible visual component to be available for incorporation in the composite work. - View Dependent Claims (51, 52, 53, 54, 55, 56, 57, 58, 59, 60, 61, 62, 63, 64, 65, 66, 67, 68, 69, 70)
