METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR ACQUIRING AN IMAGE

Abstract:

A method and apparatus for acquiring an image is provided herein. During operation a determination is made that a user is intending to tag an object through pointing a finger at the object. In response, a pre-buffer is accessed, and an image of the object is selected from the pre-buffer that is absent the user's hand. Once the image has been selected, the image can be forwarded to other users.
