Abstract:
A device, system and method is invented to solidify data from temporary storage media to long term storage media without intervention of computer. Those who can not access computer are enabled to use digital recording apparatus, such as digital camera. The operation of the device is restricted in order to increase the ease of use, and to provide the core function. The core function is to read data from temporary storage media, such as various memory cards, and write the data to long term storage media, such as user-writeable CD or DVD. The device features a minimal set of hardware components for accomplishing this function, such as a simplified user interface, an embedded processor, a data reading channel, and a data solidification channel. A data play mode can also be optionally implemented for the user to check the solidified data.
