7 is a simple flowchart of a shooting tracking process using a short-range communication-based conditional shooting tracking system according to a second preferred embodiment of the present invention.

Referring to FIG. 7, according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the shooting tracking determination condition providing server 500 uses a wireless terminal to track a shooting period of a digital camera provided in the wireless terminal for a predetermined valid period. The command is provided because, when the wireless terminal is out of the short-range communication range, the short-range communication has no means for releasing the shooting tracking function of the wireless terminal.

If the wireless terminal connected to the shooting tracking determination condition providing server 500 and the short-range communication session according to another embodiment of the present invention provides a wireless communication session function with the shooting tracking determination condition providing server 500 through a wireless network, Even if the wireless terminal is out of the short range communication range, it is possible to release the shooting tracking function to the wireless terminal through the wireless network.

Referring to FIG. 7, when the wireless terminal having the short range communication function and the conditional shooting tracking function enters the short range communication range of the at least one short range communication device provided in the shooting tracking determination condition providing server 500 (700), The shooting tracking determination condition providing server 500 may include at least one short-range communication means of infrared ray communication, radio frequency (RF) communication, Bluetooth, wireless LAN, and Wi-Fi. The local area communication session is connected with the wireless terminal through the local area communication protocol (705).

When the near field communication session between the photographing tracking determination condition providing server 500 and the wireless terminal is connected as described above, the photographing tracking determination condition providing server 500 is the second preferred embodiment of the present invention to the wireless terminal through the short range communication session. In operation 710, it is determined whether a conditional shooting tracking function is provided.

If the wireless terminal is not equipped with the conditional shooting tracking function according to the second preferred embodiment of the present invention (715), the shooting tracking determination condition providing server 500 provides a shooting tracking command to the wireless terminal. End the process.

On the other hand, if the wireless terminal is equipped with a conditional shooting tracking function according to the second preferred embodiment of the present invention (720), the shooting tracking determination condition providing server 500 is wireless over the short-range communication session connected to the wireless terminal The terminal provides a command to track the shooting of the digital camera for a certain valid period (725).

When the valid period shooting tracking command is provided to the wireless terminal as described above, since the shooting tracking valid period included in the shooting tracking command has not elapsed, the conditional shooting tracking module provided in the wireless terminal is based on the shooting tracking command.
