How Do Digital Frames Work

Digital picture frames can show all your personal snapshots.


The digital picture frame looks exactly like a regular picture frame, but it has an LCD screen instead of a glass pane. The digital frame shows a slide show of pictures that the user loads on it.


Function


The digital frame features a simple, built-in CPU that downloads the pictures and displays them in a slide show or stationary format depending on preferences set by the user. The mini computer also contains ROM memory.


Uploading


There are multiple ways to upload photos to a digital frame. One is via a USB port. Another is to insert a memory card from your digital camera into the frame.


Power Supply


Digital photo frames usually have one of two options to power your personal slide show. The first, and most popular, is batteries. Using rechargeable batteries is not only inexpensive in the long run but environmentally friendly. The second option is plugging an AC adapter into the wall.
