1. A hand-held portable wireless display and digital capture device, comprising:
- a. a digital image capture device for capturing digital video and/or still images including means for sensing capture angle having digital image processing to compare nose relative size and shape in a captured image of a person to a stored image of a person that was captured with a good capture angle;
b. a device for transmitting and receiving wireless communication of digital video and/or still images over a communication network; and
c. an image compensating device for compensating for poor capture angle conditions in a digital image captured by said image capture device, so as to create a modified image for transmission over the communication network.

Abstract
A method and device for adapting a display image on a hand-held portable wireless display and digital capture device. The device includes a camera for capturing a digital video and/or still image of a user, means for adjusting the captured digital image in response to poor image capture angle of said image capture device so as to create a modified captured digital image; and means for transmitting said modified captured digital image over a wireless communication network to a second hand-held portable wireless display and digital capture device.

17. A method for adapting a display image on a hand-held portable wireless display and digital capture device, comprising the steps of:
-
a. capturing a digital video and/or still image of a user and sensing capture angle by using a digital image processor to compare nose relative size and shape in a captured image of a person to a stored image of a person that was captured with a good capture angle; b. adjusting the captured digital image in response to poor capture angle conditions, of an image capture by said image capture device so as to create a modified captured digital image; and c. transmitting said modified captured digital image over a wireless communication network to a second hand-held portable wireless display and digital capture device. - View Dependent Claims (18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31)
