HOSTED IMAGERY CAPTURE IN AN AD HOC FOR MOBILE COMPUTING
First Claim
1. A method for digital imagery capture in an ad hoc location for mobile computing devices, the method comprising:
- determining a geographic position of a mobile computing device disposed in an ad hoc location;
identifying at least one image capture sensor proximate to the determined geographic position;
directing a selected one of the at least one image capture sensor to acquire imagery; and
,wirelessly forwarding the acquired imagery to the mobile computing device.
