  • the present invention relates to the field of digital photography, and more particularly to a novel digital camera system employing a pair of digital cameras for photographing a live subject and data card information with subsequent temporary review ofthe data on a display screen followed by transmittal ofthe data to a remote computer and printer via telephone lines.
  • Recent practices in digital photography indicate that the preparation of finished prints can be significantly accelerated by sending digitized images to a remote site for processing and printing so as to eliminate mail or courier service.
  • Hard copy prints from a digital representation can be prepared in minutes and picture quality can be controlled using a computer graphics work station.
  • Digital cameras to photograph infants eliminates the need for film, scanners and video recorders and can be controlled directly from modems or by local computers. Therefore, a long-standing need has existed to provide a novel baby or infant photography system wherein images ofthe subject can be taken and pre-approved prior to transmission to a remote computer for processing and printing. Also, the image should be accompanied by identifying information and data which would be useful in not only delivering the finished product but in billing and recording purposes.
  • the present invention provides a novel digital camera system for photographing babies or infants wherein the infant subject is supported in a portable support stand in spaced arrangement with a color digital camera.
  • the color digital camera is carried in a housing along with a gray camera.
  • the infant lies along the optical axis ofthe digital color camera while the optical axis ofthe gray camera projects through a data card insertably received through the housing.
  • Control circuits are interconnected between the two cameras for initially causing the image from the digital color camera to appear on a display for preview by the equipment operator.
  • the digital images ofthe baby from the color camera and the information derived from the data card by the gray camera is processed through a modem to a computer and a printer via telephone lines.
  • a timer is provided in a control circuit for permitting the operator to hold the baby image on the display screen for a preset time period and for organizing the transmission of digital information from both cameras to the computer via the modem.
  • Another object ofthe present invention is to provide a photographic system utilizing digital cameras whereby the image quality is comparable to conventional photographic prints.
  • Another object ofthe present invention is to provide a novel photographic system for photographing newborn infants using remotely operated digital cameras and which may be operated by untrained hospital personnel.
  • Still another object ofthe present invention is to provide a novel remotely operated digital camera system for photographing newborn infants, which provides an on-site display and which provides for remote processing and printing.

  • the display surface ofthe card 24 Upon insertion through slot 23 into the housing 17, the display surface ofthe card 24 will lie on an optical axis 26 ofthe gray camera 21 while the infant 16 lies on an optical axis 27 relating to the fixed color digital camera
  • the side ofthe housing 17 further mounts a display screen 28 which is operably connected to the color digital camera 20 so that the image taken ofthe infant can be screened for approval. This is a temporary screening and may be cancelled if unsuitable.
  • the system 10 utilizes two fixed digital cameras. The first camera is the color digital camera 20 which has its own strobe unit 22 and is used for photographing the infant. The other camera 21 is employed for photographing the data on the identification card 24. Both cameras are connected to a modem 30 that is subsequently interrogated periodically by a service or processing group. The service or processing group will retrieve and print the pictures taken by both cameras via the modem and by a remote computer 31 and printer 32.
