Capturing selected image objects
First Claim
1. A method of an image correlation comprising:
- providing an identification of one or more targeted objects that may be incorporated in a field of view of an image capture device;
enabling a selection from among the at least one or more targeted objects, which selection is identified as a point of interest;
implementing operation of the image capture device for taking multiple exposures of the selection, including providing a different quality characteristic for each exposure; and
providing a cross-reference association between the multiple exposures.

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.

33. An image selection system comprising:
-
an image capture module with specified quality parameters for capturing one or more targeted objects that may be incorporated in a field of view; a user-interface for facilitating selection of a designated targeted object; a data record that identifies the designated targeted object as a point of interest; a controller operatively coupled to the data record and to the image capture module, to activate the image capture module to take multiple exposures of the designated targeted object, wherein the multiple exposures each have different quality characteristics; and a program module configured to provide a cross-reference association between the multiple exposures of the designated targeted object. - View Dependent Claims (34, 35, 36, 37, 38, 40, 41, 42, 43, 44, 45, 46, 47, 57)

48. A computer program product having one or more computer programs for executing the following process;
-
creating a visual display that represents a field of view of an image capture device;
providing enabling an identification of possible targeted objects that may be incorporated in the field of view;enabling a user to make a selection of one or more particular targeted objects, which selection is identified as a point of interest, via the user interface; and initiating implementing operation of the image capture device for taking multiple exposures of the selection, wherein each exposure has at least one different quality characteristic, and providing a cross-reference association between the multiple exposures of the selection. - View Dependent Claims (49, 50, 51, 52, 53, 54, 55, 56)
