Abstract: A system and method for capturing and distributing digitized photographic images via an electronics communications network are provided. A subject is provided with a portable identification wireless transmitter. A digital camera coupled with a wireless receiver creates a digital photographic document and includes the identification of the user in a formatted electronic message. The document may also retain information identifying the time and locale of the creation of the image. The document is made accessible to the electronic communications network, e.g. the Internet, in association with and by means of a data structure. The data structure and/or the document may be associated within an independent or additional identifier of the subject or of a third party. Information concerning the subject and locale related to the origination of the image are inserted into an available data field of a standard digital image format, such as a JPEG, MPEG of GIF format.

Abstract: A system and method for capturing and distributing photographic images are provided. A wireless transmitter is physically coupled with a subject. The wireless transmitter broadcasts an identification code that is received by a wireless transceiver associated with a camera. One or more cameras capture visual images and associate at least one image with at least one wireless transmitter identification code. The image is stored as a record in a database and associated with one or more identification codes and a time/date stamp. The record is retrievable by reference to each associated identification code and optionally in reference to the time/date stamp. Records may be provided via the Internet or other electronic communications network, to include telephony systems. Records may be provided according to price schedules related to image quality, quantity, advertising content options.
