Abstract
Provided is novel computer enabled approach for loading pictures on to a digital picture frame, or on to a computer system functioning as a digital picture frame, via an Internet interface. The digital picture frame operates according to software instructions that when processed by a microprocessor or the like, downloads pictures over the Internet from using data storage software and displays them. In one embodiment, the digital picture frame, being an Internet-connected device with a processor capable of executing a variety of software programs and displaying images on a monitor, preferably including a touch screen input interface (ex. a “tablet” such as an Apple iPad), is used as part of a healthcare system for in-home healthcare providers. When the system is not being used for the provision of healthcare, it can display photos and videos which have been uploaded by the family and friends of the patient.
