Abstract

This invention involves the use of a body worn mobile computer with a video camera to allow image alignment. Quite frequently a video camera user cannot look directly into the camera because of some obstruction. In these cases, in order to be sure the camera is pointed in the right direction and toward the object to be captured by the image, a head mounted display worn by the user and connected to a computer can simplify this process. An example of where this system can be used is when the camera operator is located in the rear of a crowd watching a parade. He or she can hold the camera viewer above the crowd and view the image in their head mounted display thereby moving the camera viewer in the desired direction. The visible image can then be simultaneously displayed to the viewer (or user) and stored or recorded on the wearable computer or even transmitted via the computer peripherals to a remote location.
