Abstract:
In this paper we describe an infrastructure based on an existing, commercially available, GSM mobile phone for achieving connectivity between digital cameras and an Internet Website. Pictures are loaded from a standard digital camera, or compact flash card, by an embedded appliance, which establishes the Internet connection and controls the transfer of pictures from the camera to a remote website. Detailed descriptions are given of this picture transfer appliance and of a typical website infrastructure to store and manage the pictures and provide end-user services.
