A request processing apparatus according to an embodiment of the present disclosure includes a selecting section and an outputting section. The selecting section selects, from multiple pieces of photo data obtained through shooting during an event, one or more pieces of photo data consistent with a request accepted before or during the event. The outputting section outputs the one or more pieces of photo data selected by the selecting section.

A digital image display device comprising: a display screen; a processor; a network connection for receiving digital media assets provided by a plurality of individuals; an image memory; a user interface for receiving input from a user of the digital image display device; and a program memory. The program memory stores instructions to execute the steps of: receiving a digital media asset; displaying the received digital media asset on the display screen; determining an asset classification for the displayed digital media asset; selecting a set of classified feedback message choices responsive to the determined asset classification; displaying the selected set of feedback message choices, receiving input from the user to select a particular feedback message choice; and providing an indication of the selected feedback message to the individual who provided the displayed digital media asset.

A method for authorizing online sharing of content including a digital photograph or video, includes receiving, at an electronic device, the content, identifying an image of a person in the content, identifying authorization conditions associated with the person, identifying an image of an object or audio in the content, based on both the image of the person identified and the image of the object or audio identified, determining if the authorization conditions associated with the person are met, and in response to determining that the authorization conditions are met, providing online access to the digital photograph or video.

A display system has a (1) camera that includes a lens and outputs an image data; (2) a first display that includes a first display screen on which (i) a first image, based on the image data output by the camera, containing a part of a person is displayed and (ii) information indicating a position where the camera has output the image data is displayed; and (3) a second display that includes (i) a receiver which receives the image data transmitted from the camera and (ii) a second display screen that displays a second image based on the image data. The second display can be carried by the person while receiving the image data.

A digital image display device comprising: a display screen; a processor; a network connection for receiving digital media assets provided by a plurality of individuals; an image memory; a user interface for receiving input from a user of the digital image display device; and a program memory. The program memory stores instructions to execute the steps of: receiving a digital media asset; displaying the received digital media asset on the display screen; determining an asset classification for the displayed digital media asset; selecting a set of classified feedback message choices responsive to the determined asset classification; displaying the selected set of feedback message choices, receiving input from the user to select a particular feedback message choice; and providing an indication of the selected feedback message to the individual who provided the displayed digital media asset.

A photograph sharing system is described. The photograph sharing system allows for contributors to upload photographs of an event. Contributors or other application users may select an uploaded photograph in a desired section and digitally zoom in on a desired individual in that section and then download the zoomed in photograph.

Enable image based communication between mobile devices and servers. Propagating an image entity to a specific device/user and or to a plurality of devices/user enabling the people networks to be viable. The digital image entity comes into existence at a specified time, exists for a desired duration of time, and ceases to exist at a set time. A virtual network of people joined together for a specific purpose such as social networks, professional networks, enterprise networks, family networks, friends networks and other networks. Each user in such people networks has one or more profiles and is enabled to form multiple people networks. Each image entity each further comprises of one or more sub image entities that are connected to a specific image entity by their own sub relationships. The visual experience is formed by viewing a series of super images that are refreshed and updated at an optimal frequency.

A system and method for integrating a vehicular camera system is disclosed. A threshold value for metadata of one or more sensor devices and the vehicular camera system positioned in a first carrier vehicle is determined. Captured metadata is processed to determine whether the threshold value is exceeded, and a plurality of images is captured by one or more cameras of the vehicular camera system for a predetermined period, in response to exceeding the threshold value for metadata of the one or more sensor devices. The plurality of metadata is linked with each image from the plurality of captured images by matching the collection time of the metadata with the collection time for each image from the plurality of captured images, and a first image selected from the plurality of captured images is communicated along with the metadata linked to the first image, to at least one electronic device.

Methods and systems for improving a photography business are disclosed, comprising, in an embodiment, taking a photograph of a coded component together with a series of photographs for the client. The coded component comprises human-readable information and is provided to the client for access to the photographs. The coded component also comprises machine-readable information, enabling a server to sort the photographs to the corresponding jobs without operator intervention. The coded component can also comprise a fillable option field to identify that the photographs associated with the coded component are to be specially treated according to a desired selection.

A method for operating an electronic device, where the method includes: determining (a), by a processing unit of the electronic device, that a selected image represents at least one target person; and proposing (b), by a user interface of the electronic device, to share the selected image with a device used by the target person, where (b) comprises adapting (b1) a subset of the collection of images based on people represented in the images as a function of the target person and displaying, on a user interface of the electronic device, the subset of the collection of images, the displayed subset of images being arranged according to the adapting.
