Subject: questions on multimedia
messaging
Greetings!
We are a group of students who are
presently working on our undergraduate
thesis which involves processing
images which come with multimedia messages.
This is our planned
implementation: a multimedia message which contains an
image will be sent
directly to a server (which retrieves and then processes the
image); the
server will then send back another multimedia message to the mobile
phone
which sent the original image. (Please take note that we wanted
the
multimedia message to be sent straight to the server, which means that
another
mobile phone connected to the server via a data cable is not
a
consideration...).
Here are our questions:
Through the
utilization of kannel, is it possible for the server to be able to
directly
receive/send multimedia messages from/to MMS-capable mobile phones?
Yes, it is very much possible to use Kannel to do the activities
as mentioned. However I think you may need to have support from MMSC,
Navjot what do you think?
Can MMSC be bypassed, if it is a direct connection between phone only. I think ideally it should be without MMSC but Navjot can throw some more light on this.
If not, do you know of a way by which we can go about our
planned
implementation? By the way, we are running Linux Red Hat 9.0
and we have to
make our project open-source.
Yes, its good to implement open source.
Kannel is fully open source and you can very
well install this on Linux Red hat and you may need mySQL which again is Open
source

Your help will be greatly appreciated. Hoping for
your response.
Thank you very much.
