“…I have had a bit of an interest in device connectivity [1], [2] and linking digital imaging directly with the Internet [3]- [5] for quite some time now. More recently, an article about real-time connectivity was featured in the launch issue of IEEE Consumer Electronics Magazine, showing that digital cameras based on today's Wi-Fi connectivity could work quite well with no local storage apart from a small cache buffer [6].…”

“…Since the early 2000's, researchers have tried to find new ways to improve the connectivity of digital cameras [1]- [8] and reliably transfer pictures from the camera local storage to an end destination, with minimal involvement on the part of the user. Early work [6], [7] used a dial-up connection but this was soon superseded by Bluetooth [2] and cell-phone network [1] connectivity and then by wireless 802.11b [4]. Later, after the introduction of USB technology in digital cameras, the PTP [3] standard was created to take the full advantage of the increased transfer speeds implementing easy management of capturing and transfer operations.…”

“…Although not widely adopted for practical applications, PTP/IP does offer mechanisms to extend the device-to-device pairing of PTP over local or even wide-area networks without sacrificing the ease-of-use of PTP itself [6]. In other early work Corcoran and Raducan [4] looked at optimizing the transfer of MJPEG video over an 802.11b network, finding that three concurrent video streams could be supported.…”

Cloud computing suggests that we can move computers from the desktop onto the network. In this article we investigate if we can do the same with digital imaging devices. After all, for most of us the practical management of local storage on digital cameras is a messy business, keeping track of all those SD cards and then figuring out which computer they are stored on. For most family units or socially organized groups the sensible end-point for a collection of images is on shared network storage where everyone can access and contribute to the image collection. So we consider (i) the current state of art in device connectivity; (ii) the current status of digital imaging devices and image/video data requirements; and (iii) we put together a proof of concept to test our hypothesis that cameras don't really need local storage any more and, yes, you could actually start to put your photographs directly into the clouds!
