Mobile Device Biometric Photographer Identification and Image Sharing
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing mobile devices face challenges in sharing captured images with photographers who are not the owners of the device, especially when the photographer is not included in the image or not registered on the device, making it difficult to transmit images to the intended recipient.
Innovation Solution
A mobile device equipped with a camera, storage, communication, and sensor units, along with a processor that detects input signals and biometric information to identify the photographer, allowing for image transmission to the photographer's registered address if they are not the owner, or providing an interface for inputting biometric data for unregistered photographers.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Measurement precision
If biometric recognition is used to identify the photographer, then the accuracy of identifying the photographer is improved, but the complexity of the system increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent introduces a biometric recognition module as an intermediary component that mediates between the camera unit and the processor. This module automatically captures and processes biometric data (fingerprint, facial recognition, iris scan) to identify the photographer, reducing the need for manual input while maintaining high identification accuracy. The intermediary biometric module handles the complex recognition tasks, allowing the main system to remain relatively simple.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent replaces manual mechanical identification methods (such as manually selecting or tagging the photographer) with automated biometric recognition systems. The biometric module uses optical, electrical, or sensor-based methods to automatically capture and verify photographer identity, substituting the need for manual intervention with automated technological processes that maintain or improve accuracy.
2Ease of operation
If automatic biometric detection is implemented, then the ease of operation is improved, but the device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements self-service functionality where the mobile device automatically performs biometric recognition and image sharing without requiring manual intervention from the user. When a photo is captured, the system automatically identifies the photographer through biometric data, determines the appropriate sharing action, and transmits the image to the photographer's registered address. This automation significantly improves ease of operation while the complexity is managed through integrated modular components.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent performs preliminary actions by pre-registering photographers' biometric information and contact details in the storage unit before actual image sharing occurs. This preliminary setup allows the system to automatically recognize and share images with photographers without requiring manual input during the sharing process, thereby improving ease of operation. The biometric module is pre-configured to automatically process and match identities.
3Adaptability or versatility
If image transmission to unregistered photographers is enabled, then the adaptability is improved, but the security risk increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent introduces a biometric verification module as an intermediary security layer between the image transmission function and the external world. Before transmitting an image to an unregistered photographer, the system automatically verifies the photographer's identity through biometric recognition (fingerprint, facial recognition, or iris scan). This intermediary verification process ensures that images are only transmitted to the correct, authorized recipient, maintaining security while enabling versatile sharing capabilities.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent implements a feedback mechanism where the biometric recognition system continuously verifies the identity of the photographer before allowing image transmission. The system receives biometric input from the photographer, compares it with the registered information in the storage unit, and provides feedback to control whether the transmission should proceed. This feedback loop ensures security by confirming identity matches before enabling the adaptable image sharing function.
