Abstract: Display systems, control systems for a display and a method for operating a display are provided in which people are detected a presentation space within which content presented by the display can be observed. Viewing areas are defined for each person with each viewing area comprising a less than all of the presentation space and including an area corresponding to each person. One channel of image content is obtained for presentation to each person and a combination image is presented on the display. The combination image is modulated so that each area of the combination image presented by the display is viewable only in selected areas of the presentation space. The combination image has image content from each channel of image content arranged in areas of said combination image so that, when modulated, the image content from each channel of image content is viewable only in a viewing area defined for the person for whom the content is obtained.

Abstract: A method of managing digital images of a customer is disclosed. The method includes a telecommunication service provider providing a telecommunication service to a customer, the telecommunication service provider forwarding a periodic statement to the customer regarding the telecommunication services provided for a predetermined time period and also providing a combined portable telecommunication and digital image capture device capable of capturing digital images and for transmitting said captured images. In addition, the telecommunications service provider provides a data base for receiving and storing the captured images transmitted by the customer and also provides to the customer a visual representation of the captured images taken during the predetermined time period along with the periodic statement of services.

Abstract: Improved index prints for photofinishing services are provided where the imagettes are grouped by event or subject matter. Permanently attached index print labels incorporating these and other features are provided for digital still image storage devices are also provided. A magnifying storage case which allows easier viewing of the index prints is also provided.

Abstract: A media that is used for making an authenticable original document and a method for making the document. The media has an area on which a custom three dimensional physical indicia identifier can be formed thereon by a user. The area of the media is made of a material such that when the three dimensional physical indicia is digitally scanned a unique digital file is produced.

Abstract: A two-sided image product is disclosed having an image bearing side and a non-image bearing side; printing a plurality of undetermined images on the image bearing side. The image product is made from a single piece of an image bearing media folded such that the first and second sides are adhered together in a substantially co-extensive manner. The first and second sides having a plurality of slits cut therein prior to folding of the page which are sized and positioned to receive at least one corner of a document thereby securing the document to the page.

Abstract: A photographic print copying station includes a scanner for scanning a photographic print. A mask is placed over the photographic print to indicate an area of the print for copying and an operator control is provided on the copying station for selecting a desired copy size. The copying station includes a logic and control circuit that responds to the signal produced by the scanner to recognize the mask area, separates the image area from the mask area, and resizes the image area to the selected copy size. The resized image is then printed by a printer in the copying station.

Abstract: A photographic film cartridge canister provided with an integrally formed, separate compartment for storage of a sound device, such as an IC sound card, used to record sound in association with still images captured on the photographic film stored in the canister.

Abstract: Photographically useful compounds such as photographic reagents and photographic dyes are blocked with a grouping which, under alkaline conditions, is cleaved from the compound by an intramolecular nucleophilic displacement reaction. The compounds are resistant to unblocking under storage conditions, but are uniformly unblocked under conditions encountered during photographic processing.

Abstract: A photographic element comprising a support, a layer containing an image dye ligand or dye ligand forming material and a layer containing a dye mordant, wherein the mordant layer has associated therewith:(1) a polymer containing groups which form coordination complexes with metal ions; and(2) a source of metal ions.The polymer holds the metal ions in the vicinity of the dye mordant so that the metal ions can metallize the dye or dye forming material at the image receiving layer. These complexes, elements, and receiving elements are particularly useful in diffusion transfer processes. Novel polymers are also described.
