Abstract:
The growth of mobile and wireless technology in the last decade has been 
astonishing. It is now common place to see children as young as 10 with 
mobile phones and it is certain that young people are behind the boom in 
the number of text messages that are being sent daily. The development 
of camera phones by mobile phone manufacturers is simply one further 
string in their bow to becoming a complete hand held device. Increasingly 
we are seeing mobile phones coming feature packed with MP3 players, 
cameras, address books, calendars and so forth. However the biggest 
development area at the moment is that the imporvement of the camera in 
camera phones. Currently there are various standards in technology of 
camera phones. Currently there are various standards in technology of 
camera phones, ranging from 0.1 mega pixel camera up to Sony releasing 
next month the K750i which incorporates a 2 mega pixel camera. This is 
still far off the realms that they have in Japan, were Casio has released 
the A5406CA which has a 3 mega pixel camera. The increase in resolution 
of these cameras is the drive behind my project. I aim to develop a 
system which will easily enable users to store and share the photos 
that they take on their mobile phones.
