Image acquisition and management using a reference image
First Claim
1. A network device comprising:
- one or more processors;
one or more memories; and
an image management application configured to perform;
in response to receiving, over one or more communications links from a client device that is external to the network device, a request for image sequences that correspond to a particular user, provide to the client device via the one or more communications links, a first set of one or more Web pages that include one or more graphical user interface objects that correspond to a plurality of image sequences that correspond to the particular user, wherein each image sequence from the plurality of image sequences includes a reference image and one or more other images acquired using the reference image displayed on a camera as a background image, andin response to receiving, over the one or more communications links from the client device that is external to the network device, a request for a particular image sequence from the plurality of image sequences that correspond to the particular user, provide to the client device via the one or more communications links, a second set of one or more Web pages that include, for the particular image sequence, a particular reference image and one or more other images arranged in chronological order, starting with the particular reference image, and metadata that specifies a time at which the particular reference image, and each image from the one or more other images, was acquired.

Abstract
A reference image of one or more objects is displayed on the display of a mobile device in a manner that allows a user of the mobile device to simultaneously view the reference image and a preview image of the one or more objects currently in a field of view of a camera of the mobile device. An indication is provided to the user of the mobile device whether the camera of the mobile device is currently located within a specified amount of a distance at which the reference image was acquired. In response to a user request, the camera acquires a second image of the one or more objects and optionally a distance between the camera and the one or more objects at the time the second image was acquired is recorded. An image management application provides various functionalities for accessing and managing image sequences.

8. One or more non-transitory computer-readable media storing instructions which, when processed by one or more processors, cause:
an image management application to perform; in response to receiving, over one or more communications links from a client device that is external to the network device, a request for image sequences that correspond to a particular user, provide to the client device via the one or more communications links, a first set of one or more Web pages that include one or more graphical user interface objects that correspond to a plurality of image sequences that correspond to the particular user, wherein each image sequence from the plurality of image sequences includes a reference image and one or more other images acquired using the reference image displayed on a camera as a background image, and in response to receiving, over the one or more communications links from the client device that is external to the network device, a request for a particular image sequence from the plurality of image sequences that correspond to the particular user, provide to the client device via the one or more communications links, a second set of one or more Web pages that include, for the particular image sequence, a particular reference image and one or more other images arranged in chronological order, starting with the particular reference image, and metadata that specifies a time at which the particular reference image, and each image from the one or more other images, was acquired. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14)

15. A computer-implemented method comprising:
an image management application performing; in response to receiving, over one or more communications links from a client device that is external to the network device, a request for image sequences that correspond to a particular user, provide to the client device via the one or more communications links, a first set of one or more Web pages that include one or more graphical user interface objects that correspond to a plurality of image sequences that correspond to the particular user, wherein each image sequence from the plurality of image sequences includes a reference image and one or more other images acquired using the reference image displayed on a camera as a background image, and in response to receiving, over the one or more communications links from the client device that is external to the network device, a request for a particular image sequence from the plurality of image sequences that correspond to the particular user, provide to the client device via the one or more communications links, a second set of one or more Web pages that include, for the particular image sequence, a particular reference image and one or more other images arranged in chronological order, starting with the particular reference image, and metadata that specifies a time at which the particular reference image, and each image from the one or more other images, was acquired. - View Dependent Claims (16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
