Mobile device smart media filtering

Abstract:

A mobile device receives media files, and automatically tags each of the media files with tags, comprising data or meta-data, based on: 1) other mobile users proximate to the mobile device, 2) a current location of the mobile device, 3) facial recognition analysis applied to each of the first media files, 4) subject or content recognition analysis applied to each of the first media files, 5) a current date, and/or 6) a usage history associated with each of the first media files. The mobile device stores the tagged media files, and receives a user request to search the media files. The mobile device searches the tags, responsive to the user request, to generate a filtered set of media files, and presents the filtered set of media files to a user of the mobile device.
