Patent Images

1. A shared image device, comprising:

  • a device energy estimator configurable to estimate an energy value for the shared image device;

    a resolution conversion energy indicator configurable to indicate whether the shared image device has a sufficient energy to convert a resolution of at least one image at least partially relative to the energy level for the shared image device;

    a sharing mechanism that is configurable to at least partially share the at least one image with at least another shared image device, wherein the sharing mechanism is configurable to convert the resolution of the at least one image;

    the resolution conversion energy indicator configurable to determine that the shared image device does not have the sufficient energy to convert the resolution of the at least one image; and

    the shared image device configurable to communicate to a second device to convert the resolution of the at least one image in response to determining that the shared image device does not have the sufficient energy to convert the resolution of the at least one image.
