Lifelogging for 'observer' view memories: an infrastructure approach

Abstract

Lifelogging has much to offer human memory. Traditional lifelogging techniques use wearable cameras to capture a first-person or 'field' view. We propose an alternative or complementary approach in which fixed infrastructure cameras provide a third-person or 'observer' view of daily events. In this paper we identify key advantages and challenges for a fixed infrastructure approach to lifelogging.
