Memoto Lifelogging Camera

Memoto camera is a tiny, automatic wearable camera that gives you a searchable and share-able photographic memory. You will find the features very interesting and exciting. Still in funding stage, you can check out the Kickstarter page.





So how can it add any value in DAS?
During site survey our hands are full pen paper, signal collecting device, measuring tape - you name it. If I could take the camera out of this mess of things, that would be awesome. I don't know how configurable this camera is, but I like the concept of just hanging it from my neck during a site survey and "forgetaboutit". One feature I would like to be configurable (and does not seem like it is) is the frequency of snapshot; currently it's every 30 seconds. Anyway, deliveries will begin in February 2013. Until then, we DAS folks will probably not know if it will be a hit or a dud for our site surveys.
