A recurring sense of Deja ViewBy Larry Garfield, Tuesday 15 June 2004
Start up Deja View's new CamWear Model 100 lets users record their lives, 30 seconds at a time.

As storage capacity has steadily increased, it was inevitable that logging of textual exchanges would eventually lead to video logging. That's part of the idea behind Deja View's new Model 100 camera, which lets users record impromptu events from their life for posterity.

The camera is a small QVGA 320 x 240 camera that clips to a pair of eyeglasses, baseball cap, or similar. It connects to a small processing pack that can be worn by the user that also includes a 2000 mAh battery rated for 4 hours of battery life. The camera continually records everything it sees in a small buffer. When the user sees something he want to save, a press of a button dumps the last 30 seconds of video to a Secure Digital card for posterity.

Ill: Deja View CamWear Model 100


The camera records video at 320 x 240 resolution and 24 bits per pixel, and also records 16-bit audio. The lens has a 60-degree field of view. The wearable box itself includes a USB connection to transfer videos to a PC, although removing the SD card and inserting it into a card reader will be faster. A 64 MB SD card is included, which the company estimates will store at least 16 30 second clips, but it can take any size SD card.

The camera, or CamWear as the company calls it, saves video to Windows Media Player 8 format. It sells for $399.99 USD.
