Abstract: The disclosure includes a video (including audio) processing system for transmission of a video frame across a network. The system includes a video input mechanism, a motion detection mechanism, and a web cam mechanism. The video input mechanism is configured to receive a first video frame and a second video frame. The motion detection mechanism is configured to compare the first video frame with the second video frame. It is also configured to generate a motion-detected signal if the comparison of the frames deviates from a threshold value. The web cam mechanism is configured to transmit the second video frame if it received the motion detection signal from the motion detection mechanism. The disclosure also includes a method for processing a selected video frame for transmission across a network.

Abstract: A method and a system for interacting with data transferred between a peripheral device and an intelligent host, including connecting the peripheral device with the host; initiating a transfer of the data between the peripheral device and the host; completing the transfer of a first data file of the data between the peripheral device and the host; and interacting with the first data file, while continuing the transfer of the remaining data files between the peripheral device and the host. In an embodiment, the peripheral device includes a digital camera, preferably a digital dual mode camera and the data being transferred includes digital still and/or digital video image data. The interaction with the data includes displaying, copying, printing and the sending of the data file to another location.
