Definition: digital photo frame


A desktop picture frame that holds digital images from a computer or the Internet. Photos are downloaded via a memory card, USB cable or with a wired or wireless connection to the home network. Operating in still or slide show mode, some models accept new images from the Internet, allowing friends and family to update the frame without any manual operation. For a fee, art of all kinds can also be downloaded into the device.
