Method for multiple photograph mobile application

Abstract

Disclosed is a method which enables users in an environment to take multiple photos by using a main device or one or a plural of member devices that are managed via the main device.

Claims

1. A method for taking multiple photographs by using a main device onto which a mobile application is installed and at least one member device onto which the mobile application is installed, the method comprising: establishing access to the main device and the at least one member device; listing a user or users of the at least one member device on the main device; forming a group with the user or users selected from the listing; sending a link type to the group via the main device; requesting camera access permission by the main device to the group via the sent link type; transferring camera images that are taken by the at least one member device of the group to the main device; taking photos by the main device; and sharing the photos taken by the main device with all the at least one member device of the group.

2. The method of claim 1, wherein the step of establishing access comprises; establishing access between the main device and the at least one member device via the Internet.

3. The method of claim 1, wherein the step of establishing access comprises; establishing access between the main device and the at least one member device via Bluetooth.

4. The method of claim 1, wherein the step of establishing access comprises; establishing access between the main device and the at least one member device via Wi-Fi.

5. The method of claim 1, wherein the step of establishing access comprises; establishing access between the main device and the at least one member device via an NFC connection.

6. The method of claim 1, wherein the step of transferring camera images comprises; transferring the camera images by delayed transference via pooling and socket connection types.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

(5) In this detailed description, the novelty of the present invention is explained with examples in order for the issue to be understood in detail and these examples are not limiting in any manner. Our multiple photograph mobile application (2) is a camera application that enables taking multiple photographs. By the virtue of the method of our invention, main device (1), which is a smart mobile device onto which the mobile application (2) is installed, can take multiple photographs by accessing one or plural of member devices (3) onto which the mobile application (2) is installed. According to this, the method comprises the steps of establishing access among the main device (1) and the member devices (3), listing the member device users (3), with the application installed (2), on the main device (1), forming a group with the member device (3) users that are selected from the said list, sending a link type to the member device (3) user group members via the main device (1), main device (1) requesting the camera access permission of the member devices (3) that are the members of the group via the sent link, transferring the camera images that are taken by the member device (3) to the main device (1), taking photos by the Main device (1), sharing the photos taken by the main device (1) with all the group members.

(6) The main idea of our multiple photograph mobile application (2) called “Mulfie” is to enable the users in the same environment to take multiple photographs/selfies. Main device (1) onto which the mobile application (2) is installed, accesses at least one member device (2) onto which the mobile application (2) is installed by using internet connection. By using member device (3) list (friend list) screens shown on the main device (1), a group is formed by the individuals that are selected from this member device (3) list (friend list). Afterwards, a member device (3) user that is in the group, sends a connection type to other users via the main device (1). By this link, a sub-program inside the mobile application (2), i.e. the camera application is opened. By this manner, images that belong to member device (3) cameras are transferred to the main device (1) which requests camera access via the mobile application (2). The images that are taken from the member device (3) cameras are transferred with delay by the Pooling and Socket connection types, it becomes easier by the transferred images, to locate the mobile devices to the angles that are desired and as many photographs as desired can be taken by the main device (1). The photos taken are shared between all devices that are members of the group. Stabilization in data transfer, data import and export is provided by using the Socket and Pooling connection types.

(7) Our mobile application (2) can also operate without Internet. In case that the user does not have Internet connection, the data transfer shall be done via “Bluetooth”. If the access cannot be performed via “Bluetooth”, in this case, the system shall continue working and deactivate “Bluetooth” and activate Wi-Fi or NFC connections.
