Proximity of shared image devices
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method, comprising:
- sending a query from a first image capture device to an at least one other image capture device within a proximity of the first image capture device requesting status information about status of one or more aspects associated with one or more images acquired, acquirable, or a combination thereof by the at least one other image capture device;
receiving at the first image capture device the status information from the at least one other image capture device in response to the query;
sending from the first image capture device an indication to the at least one other image capture device that the first image capture device is at least available to participate in a sharing session between the first image capture device and the at least one other image capture device if the status as described in the status information of the one or more aspects associated with the one or more images acquired, acquirable, or a combination thereof by the at least one other image capture device satisfies one or more criteria; and
transmitting during the sharing session between the first image capture device and the at least one other image capture device at least one portion of at least one image representation from the first image capture device to the at least one other image capture device in a manner at least partially relying on the proximity of the first image capture device and the at least one other image capture device if the sharing session between the first image capture device and the at least one other image capture device occurs due at least in part to the sending from the first image capture device the indication to the at least one other image capture device that the first image capture device is at least available to participate in a sharing session between the first image capture device and the at least one other image capture device.

Abstract
A technique involving either: a) transmitting at least one portion of at least one image representation from, or b) receiving at least one portion of at least one image representation to, a first shared image device in a manner at least partially relying on a proximity of the first shared image device and an at least one other shared image device.
