Abstract: 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.

Abstract: A camera may capture real world content which may be displayed in a mobile device or glasses. This content may be modified in real time. The image capture of objects and transformation of those objects are displayed. The images obtained may be processed and changes may be enacted such that they are displayed virtually different than they are physically. Various micro-expressions and emotions may be detected by the facial expressions of a person. Digital notes may be saved and associated with objects. These notes and environments may be saved by a user and viewable by anyone in the geofenced area or all users. An individual may capture an image of an object using a mobile device/intelligent electronic glasses/headset, tap the object on the display screen, and write or speak notes regarding the object. A keyboard, keypad, image, icons, or other items may be virtually placed on to a surface.

Abstract: The cellular telephones/mobile devices of the present invention may be configured with multiple general purpose and special purpose processors to perform a number of varied functions and multi-tasking. The present invention provides for the viewing of two separate television programs or other content side by side on each of the display areas enabling the user to multiplex between two distinct functions and tasks. As another example the user may contemporaneously work on two computational intensive tasks on each of said display areas. Two display areas may be configured as touch sensitive display areas for independently actuating one or more types of functions and utilities from each side. The mobile device may be enabled with a cellular voice and data communication, WiFi connectivity, Bluetooth connectivity, and Internet Protocol connectivity.

Abstract: Having a single channel for a transmit/receive (T/R) unit with a single antenna or a single processor would cause a limitation in data transfer rates, so multiple channels are provided. The single processor may have multiple channels for parallel processing of each data stream to process accurately two distinct signals that were more optimally received by two dedicated antennas and two separate T/R units contained within the cellular telephone/mobile wireless device (CT/MD) to improve performance and quality of output. An example is a CT/MD which is optimized for video and voice.
