Wearable Imaging - The WearCAM and Mobile Image Anotation

The WearCAM is a wearable imaging system that collects images from the real world during tasks, that can then be anotated in various novel ways. Early versions of the WearCAM were used at a archaeological dig in Rome. The latest version has been on numerous field trips, most recently to Belgrade and Sarajevo, where it has been used in forensic archaeology. This version has also been integrated with the Local Positioning System.
