Lifelogging

San Francisco-based smart tech startup Humane has launched its first product. The Ai Pin essentially allows users to attach an AI chatbot and lifelogger to their clothing and access AI wherever they are.

Facebook is hoping that it can succeed where others have failed, and use its massive global presence to make smart glasses a worldwide hit, partnering with Ray-Ban to launch a pair of photo/video-capturing glasses called Ray-Ban Stories.

People who have gone through the process of compiling movies from clips understand the tedium of separating video "wheat" from "chaff." The Kiba camera is intended to make that process easier.

Life loves to present us with incredible and/or unexpected situations, but unless someone has a camera actively recording, those moments lose the potential for widespread sharing. Mofily is taking aim at people looking to capture just such events, with its pocket-sized YoCam.

Acumulus9 aims to improve upon the existing lifelogging camera experience by not taking photos at predetermined intervals, but having its QindredCam select select when and where to take a snap.

Sometimes, when a photo or video opportunity presents itself, it can be gone by the time you've pulled your smartphone out to capture it. A small wearable camera and video recorder named SnapCam from iON is designed to help make sure you don't miss those moments.

Sometimes, the moments you really want to capture in a photograph occur when you don't have a camera to hand. The Narrative Clip sought to solve this problem, clipping onto a user's clothing and taking a photo every 30 seconds. Now, a new version has been announced.

Something we're seeing more of these days are wearable lifelogging cameras, designed to record every moment of our lives. We recently saw the ParaShoot hit the market, and now its creators are introducing NewViewWear – a line of clothing that accommodates an included lifelogging camera.

In October 2012, a device called Memoto raised its Kickstarter goal of $50,000 in under 5 hours and went on to raise over US$550,000. Memoto went into production and began shipping in November 2013. Now called Narrative Clip, the device is a wearable lifelogging camera and a Kickstarter success.
