Information About

Picture Transfer Protocol




A number of protocols have been developed that extend PTP. PTP/IP, developed by FotoNation and first implemented by Nikon , allows data transfer over a wireless network. Media Transfer Protocol , developed by Microsoft , allows for transfer over wireless or wired networks based in part on FotoNation's PTP/IP, but also allows users to transfer other media aside from pictures.

Both Microsoft and Apple include PTP support in their Operating System s, from Windows Me onwards on the Microsoft side and Mac OS X V10.1 onwards on the Apple side. PTP on Linux , and other Open Source operating systems, is supported by a number of libraries and applications, such as GPhoto and libptp .
