ImageCapture request
Capturing an image is done using the ImageCapture
request. The request shows the capture dialog and requires some user interaction depending on the device. It is processed synchronously: When the user confirms or cancels the capture process the dialog will close and the request will return. The captured image may be returned in different ways: As BASE64 encoded image data and as file. Furthermore, it may be returned as additional thumbnail image, again BASE64 encoded and as file but in addition as temporarily persistent web service object. This image object can be retrieved via HTTP GET requests from the web service.
