Abstract

Disclosed herein is a method and system for utilizing a digital data capture device in conjunction with a Bluetooth (BT) enabled mobile device for publishing data and multimedia content on one or more websites automatically or with minimal user intervention. A client application is provided on the BT enabled mobile device. In the absence of inbuilt BT capability, a BT communication device is provided on the digital data capture device. The BT communication device is paired with the BT enabled mobile device to establish a connection. The client application detects capture of data and multimedia content on the digital data capture device and initiates transfer of the captured data, multimedia content, and associated files. The digital data capture device transfers the captured data, multimedia content, and the associated files to the client application. The client application automatically publishes the transferred data and multimedia content on one or more websites.

Claims

1. A method of segmented data transfer from a Bluetooth enabled mobile device to one or more web services, the method comprising:

determining size of data to be transferred by the Bluetooth enabled mobile device;

transferring the data by the Bluetooth enabled mobile device to the one or more web services using a segmented data transfer protocol due in part to present data size and data transfer capabilities of the Bluetooth enabled mobile device, wherein transferring data using the segmented data transfer protocol comprises, the Bluetooth enabled mobile device, performing;

segmenting data into data segments at an application layer level;

applying a segment identifier to each data segment at the application layer level;

applying a user identifier to each data segment for each destination web service at the application layer level, wherein each user identifier uniquely identifies a particular user of the web service;

transferring a data segment along with said user identifier and said segment identifier to the web service;

receiving a synchronization message from the web service, corresponding to successful completion of said data segment transfer;

repeating the step of data segment transfer and the step of receiving the synchronization message, until all the data segments have been transferred to the web service successfully, wherein if segmented data transfer is interrupted, the step of data segment transfer further comprises, the Bluetooth enabled mobile device, performing;

sending, a synchronization request to the web service, for said user identifier, after a network connection to the web service is restored;

receiving, a synchronization reply back from the web service, corresponding to the successfully received segmented data, for said user identifier; and

resuming, the segmented data transfer from the point immediately following the last successful receipt of the segmented data by the web service, for said user identifier.

2. The method of claim 1, wherein the data transferred by the Bluetooth enabled mobile comprises one or more of audio data, video data, image data, text data, or digital data.

3. The method of claim 1, wherein the data transferred from the Bluetooth enabled mobile device to one or more web services is multimedia data and data associated with multimedia data.

4. The method of claim 1, wherein transferring the data further comprises:

configuring the data at the Bluetooth enabled mobile device, so that it can be received by the one or more web services and reassembled.

5. The method of claim 1, wherein the user identifier comprises one or more elements from user information, and wherein the one or more elements of the user information comprise user-name, user-password, user-device-information, user settings, or user preferences.
