An example device includes at least one camera and a touchscreen user interface including thumbnail images for a plurality of stored pictures and a first button for a communication operation for sending a picture corresponding to a selected thumbnail image to another device.

System and device for communicating images

An example system includes at least one a first device and at least one second device. The first device includes a camera; memory for storing user-configurable name information and a picture captured by the camera; and communication circuitry for wirelessly transmitting the name information. The second device includes communication circuitry for wirelessly receiving the name information; a display controller for controlling display of a name based on the received name information; and a user interface for receiving, while the name is displayed, a user-supplied request for picture reception. The communication circuitry of the first device transmits the stored picture to the second device based on the picture reception request and the communication circuitry of the second device receives the transmitted picture.

An example device includes first and second cameras and a touchscreen user interface configured to concurrently display first and second buttons and a real time image captured by the selected one of the cameras. The first button is operable for selecting between the first and second cameras, and the second button is operable for taking a picture using the selected one of the cameras.

Camera device

An example device includes first and second oppositely facing cameras and a user interface configured to concurrently display (i) a real time image captured by one of the first and second cameras and (ii) first, second and third buttons. The first button is operable for taking a picture using one of the cameras, the second button is operable for displaying a stored picture, and the third button is operable for switching between the first and second cameras.

A hand-held imaging apparatuscomprises a lower housing, an upper housing, an outer camera, a lower LCD, a touch panel, and change means. The upper housingis foldably connected to the lower housing. The outer camerais provided in an outer surface of the upper housingwhen folded. The lower LCDhas a display screen which is provided in an inner surface of the lower housingwhen folded, and displays a live image which is currently taken by the outer camera. The touch panelis provided on the display screen of the lower LCD. The change means makes a change to the live image based on an input with respect to the touch panel

Hand-held imaging apparatus and storage medium storing program

A game device according to the present embodiment includes a camera as image pick-up means. An inner camera is accommodated in an upper housing. In addition, a microphone hole is provided in an inner surface of the upper housing so as to sense external sound through a microphone.

Information processing device, information processing system, and launch program and storage medium storing the same providing photographing functionality

Identification information of another image communication apparatus is received, as transmitter information indicating a transmitter, from the another image communication apparatus, and display is performed so as to indicate the transmitter on display means in accordance with the transmitter information having been received, and a user is allowed to select whether or not an image is to be received from the another image communication apparatus having transmitted the transmitter information. Next, its own identification information is transmitted, as destination information indicating a destination, to the another image communication apparatus which is selected as the transmitter from which an image is to be received. An image is received from the another image communication apparatus to which the destination information is transmitted, and the received image is stored in storage means.
