System and method for identifying and tagging individuals present in an image

A system for identifying and tagging individuals in an image, the system comprising:

• a first device and a second device, the first device comprising:
• a processor;
• an image capturing unit;
• and
• a memory couples to the processor, wherein the processor executes an algorithm stored in the memory to:
• detect the second device present in proximity of the first device;
• establish a connection between the first device and the second device based on a connection request received by the first device when it enters into a camera mode for capturing images;
• capture an image using the image capturing unit of the first device;
• receive identity information of individuals from the second device, wherein the identity information comprises at least one of images and personal details of the individuals;
• identify identities of individuals present in the captured image by comparing the captured image with the images of the individuals received from the second device;
• tag individuals present in the captured image by comparing the captured image with the images of the individuals received from the second device;
• store tagging information in metadata or other information related to the captured image.

A method of storing identity information of individuals in an image, the method comprising:

• detecting, by a first device a second device present in proximity;
• establishing a connection between the first device and the second device based on a connection request received by the first device from the second device;
• capturing an image using an image capturing unit of the first device;
• receiving by the first device, from the second device, identity information of individuals, wherein the identity information comprises personal details of the individuals;
• storing, by the first device, the identity information in metadata or other information in metadata or other information related to the captured image.
