Abstract

Disclosed herein is a method and system for utilizing a digital data capture device in conjunction with a Bluetooth (BT) enabled mobile device for publishing data and multimedia content on one or more websites automatically or with minimal user intervention. A client application is provided on the BT enabled mobile device. In the absence of inbuilt BT capability, a BT communication device is provided on the digital data capture device. The BT communication device is paired with the BT enabled mobile device to establish a connection. The client application detects capture of data and multimedia content on the digital data capture device and initiates transfer of the captured data, multimedia content, and associated files. The digital data capture device transfers the captured data, multimedia content, and the associated files to the client application. The client application automatically publishes the transferred data and multimedia content on one or more websites.

Dependent claims

A machine-implemented method for data transfer to one or more remote internet based services, the method comprises:

for a data capture device having a short-range wireless capability to connect with a mobile device, the mobile device having access to the internet, wherein the mobile device comprises one of a mobile phone device, a cell phone device and a personal digital assistance device, performing in the data capture device:
establishing a short-range paired wireless connection between the data capture device and the mobile device when both devices are in range of each other, wherein establishing the short-range paired wireless connection comprises exchanging the cryptographic public key of the mobile device and the data capture device with each other, and wherein the short-range is short-range radio frequency that is most effective for data transfer when devices are less than 100 meters apart;
acquiring new data, wherein the new data is data acquired after establishing the short-range wireless pairing between the data capture device and the mobile device;
negotiating with the mobile device, the internet connection resource sharing availability for the data capture device, over the established paired short-range wireless connection, before the new data is sent to one or more remote internet based services, comprising:
receiving, a notification message from the mobile device, over the established short-range paired wireless connection, wherein the notification message corresponds to an offer to share internet access, and wherein the mobile device is configured to offer the internet access for sharing to the data capture device, over the short-range wireless connection, using personal area networking technology;
sending, a reply message to the mobile device, over the established short-range paired wireless connection, wherein the reply message corresponds to a request to initiate the internet access sharing for the data capture device to transfer the new data;
and
connecting, through the short-range wireless connection, to the internet access to transfer the new data;
determining existence of the new data for transfer to one or more remote internet based services;
and
transferring the new data to the mobile device, over the established short-range paired wireless connection, wherein the mobile device is configured to receive the new data over the short range paired wireless connection and send it to one or more remote internet based services.

negotiating with the mobile device, the internet connection resource sharing availability for the data capture device, over the established paired short-range wireless connection, before the new data is sent to one or more remote internet based services, comprising:
sending, a request message to the mobile device, over the established short-range paired wireless connection, wherein the request message corresponds to asking the mobile device to initiate internet access for sharing;
receiving, a response message from the mobile device, over the established short-range paired wireless connection, wherein the response message corresponds to affirming the initiation of the internet access for sharing, and wherein the mobile device is configured to offer the internet access for sharing to the data capture device, over the short-range wireless connection, using personal area networking technology;
and
sending, a reply message to the mobile device, over the established short-range paired wireless connection, wherein the reply message corresponds to connecting to the shared internet access to transfer the new data;
determining existence of the new data for transfer to one or more remote internet based services;
and
transferring the new data to the mobile device, over the established short-range paired wireless connection, wherein the mobile device is configured to receive the new data over the short-range paired wireless connection and send it to one or more remote internet based services.
