Lifelogger - Capture your moments easily

We try to capture our precious moments by mobile or camera, but in both we need to use our both hands or we can say we are not free to do other things, via Lifelogger you can capture easily as the device rest in your ear and you are free to do other things. Lifelogger not only capture the photo it captures the video, GPS location & audio and save your recording in the cloud. So no need to worry about the space in the device.


Very useful device, with lot of features. See the video below

The team also created an app for mobiles, so that you can watch your videos and photo

The photos and videos in the cloud appears in 3D gallery, so that you can easily find the video you are looking for


The simple working system is shown below


And once uploaded to the cloud your videos go through the following steps:

1) Video Stabilization - Using software Algo as well as hardware metadata from GYRO we achieve very good video stabilization.

2) Face Detection - We try to detect faces in certain patterns and with certain Algorythms in place so that we process only certain frames (we do not process every frame) so we can lower the CPU power needed.

3) OCR - OCR in Video is a big challenge. Results from this are better if ultimate conditions are utilized. Good light, direct view, good focus, font size and good angle are important. Because of that our Algo tries to figure out first which frames might contain good quality pictures and only then tries to OCR those frames.

4) Voice Recognition - We strip the audio component from the video and our software does voice recognition,  converting the voice into text format (search friendly). For best results clear and proper  english enunciation with no background noise is ideal!

5. GPS positioning on a map (using Google Maps)  + Heading Direction Indicator on the map.

If the device successfully completed, its goal of $150,000 then it will be available in market from Dec 2014


The project is in Kickstarter with a goal of $150,000 and till now it achieved to get $67,006, so if you like this project or wanna Lifelogger for you then you can contribute via Kickstarter or click here
