Abstract
Method and system for preserving and communicating live views of a remote physical location over a computer network. The present invention integrates so-called 'telepresence' systems with a user interface that allows the user to capture views of a remote physical location. Users navigate a remote physical location by viewing images captured by cameras in the remote location and remotely controlling the cameras by means of a user interface to capture more images of other selected regions within the location. The present invention allows the user to preserve views of the remote physical location as the user navigates. These views can then be saved for later use by the user or communicated to others. In one embodiment, views saved or communicated can be activated to connect users to the live image source.
