Consumption and capture of media content sensed from remote perspectives

At least one non-transitory computer-readable medium comprising instructions that, in response to execution of the instructions by a first mobile device, cause the first mobile device to be controlled by a second mobile device to enable media content sensed from a perspective of the first mobile device to be consumed using the second mobile device or captured by the first mobile device under control of the second mobile device, wherein to be controlled includes:

• receipt of one or more commands from the second mobile device using at least a persistent communication link between the first and second mobile devices,
• provision, at a first resolution, of a first view of media content currently sensed by the first mobile device using a stateless communication protocol layer in a protocol stack of the first mobile device, wherein the stateless communication protocol layer is disposed above an internet protocol layer and a network layer in the protocol stack, and
• provision, at a second resolution higher than the first resolution, of a second view of the media content using a connection-oriented communication protocol layer in the protocol stack of the first mobile device, wherein the connection-oriented communication protocol layer is disposed above the Internet protocol layer and the network layer in the protocol stack, and wherein the connection-oriented communication protocol layer is different from the stateless communication protocol layer.

A system, comprising:

• one or more processors;
• a memory operably coupled to the processor;
• and
• a module configured to be operated with or by the one or more processors to:
• control a remote mobile device to enable media content sensed from a perspective of the remote mobile device to be consumed using the system or captured by the remote mobile device under control of the system, wherein control includes:
• provision of one or more commands to the remote mobile device using at least a persistent communication link between the system and the remote mobile device,
• receipt, at a first resolution, of at least a streamed view of media content currently sensed by the remote mobile device using a stateless communication protocol layer in a protocol stack of the system, wherein the stateless communication protocol layer is disposed above an internet protocol layer and a network layer in the protocol stack, and
• receipt, at a second resolution higher than the first resolution, of a second view of the media content using a connection-oriented communication protocol layer in the protocol stack of the system, wherein the connection-oriented communication protocol layer is disposed above the internet protocol layer and the network layer in the protocol stack and, wherein the connection-oriented communication protocol layer is different from the stateless communication protocol layer.
