The form may include a search option in one or more email address books.
L'étape suivante consiste à saisir le numéro de carte bancaire et/ou éventuellement des informations d'identification de l'utilisateur, par exemple un certificat électronique conforme à la norme X509. L'activation de cette saisie ou de cette étape transmet ces informations à un serveur comportant les ressources logiciels propres au paiement électronique. La mise en œuvre du paiement en ligne sera réalisé en parallèle avec la poursuite de la procédure de prise de vue.The next step is to enter the bank card number and / or possibly user identification information, for example a electronic certificate in accordance with standard X509. The activation of this entry or this step transmits this information to a server containing the software resources specific to electronic payment. The implementation of online payment will be carried out in parallel with the continuation of the shooting procedure.
L'étape suivante consiste en la prise de vue d'une succession de photographies ou de séquences vidéos, à des intervalles de temps prédéterminés, par exemple toutes les 10 secondes, sous forme de trois prises de vue. Les images ou séquences vidéos sont mémorisées localement.The next step consists in taking a succession of photographs or video sequences, at predetermined time intervals, for example every 10 seconds, in the form of three shots. The images or video sequences are stored locally.
L'étape suivante consiste à visualiser sur l'écran les différentes prises de vue et de proposer à l'utilisateur un moyen de sélection, par exemple par désignation de la prise de vue retenue sur l'écran tactile.The next step is to display the different shots on the screen and to offer the user a means of selection, for example by designating the shot selected on the touch screen.
L'étape suivante consiste à présenter sur l'écran un formulaire de saisie d'un texte d'accompagnement de l'image numérique. La ou les adresses électroniques de destinataires sont affichées pour information et correction éventuelle pendant cette étape.The next step is to present on the screen a form for entering text accompanying the digital image. The recipient email address (es) are displayed for information and possible correction during this step.
L'étape suivante est une étape de vérification de l'aboutissement du paiement numérique. En cas de réponse positive, le message électronique comportant l'image ou la séquence vidéo et le texte d'accompagnement est envoyé au(x) destinataire ( s ) dont la ou les adresse(s) électronique (s) ont été saisies précédemment, ainsi qu'un ou plusieurs bandeaux publicitaires stockés dans la mémoire du serveur ou des automates, sont envoyés.The next step is to verify the success of the digital payment. In the event of a positive response, the electronic message containing the image or the video sequence and the accompanying text is sent to the recipient (s) whose email address (es) have been entered previously, as well as one or more banner ads stored in the memory of the server or of the machines, are sent.
En cas de réponse négative, le procédé renvoie à l'étape de paiement en ligne tout en conservant les autres informations (photo ou séquence sélectionné, texte d'accompagnement, adresses de destination). Après l'envoi des messages électroniques, un message de confirmation est visualisé sur l'écran, et éventuellement une facture ou un coupon est édité.In the event of a negative response, the process returns to the online payment step while retaining the other information (photo or selected sequence, accompanying text, destination addresses). After sending the electronic messages, a confirmation message is displayed on the screen, and possibly an invoice or coupon is issued.
Les informations saisies par l'utilisateur, ainsi que les informations systèmes (date et heures des prises de vue, etc.) sont transmise au serveur ainsi que certaines prises de vue au moins. Ces données sont centralisées et traitées périodiquement pour l'établissement de rapports d'activités présentant des données statistiques ainsi que des échantillons de prise de vue pour vérification à distance du bon fonctionnement des automates . The information entered by the user, as well as the system information (date and time of shots, etc.) are transmitted to the server as well as at least some shots. These data are centralized and periodically processed for the establishment of activity reports presenting statistical data as well as shooting samples for remote verification of the proper functioning of the machines.
