GROUP INTERACTION MODES FOR MOBILE DEVICES

摘要

A method and system for automatically providing group interaction modes in a local area network (LAN) (306) for attendees of an event having mobile devices (14) capable of communication with the local area network is described. One aspect includes providing a shared data pool (314) on the LAN with data created by a provider of the event prior to the event; and providing the LAN with a group mode. The group mode includes functions for enabling attendees to create user data pools on the LAN from their mobile devices to upload digital image data captured during the event to the LAN for storage in the corresponding user data pools; and enabling at least a portion of the mobile devices to download the data stored in both the shared data pool and other attendee's user data pools for storage.
