Vicon Revue Brings the Harry Potter Pensieve to Our World
In the Harry Potter series, a Pensieve is a magical stone that allows people to store and replay memories. While photography helps us store moments, there’s obviously quite a bit of life that slips through the cracks. The Revue by Vicon is a wearable camera that passively takes photographs through the day to document your life.
Here’s an example of a day captured using the Revue:
As disk storage becomes cheaper and cheaper, future versions of this kind of device might record HD video and sound. A neat project might be to create a photoblog and publish a 24-hour timelapse every day of the year.
The Revue is available for purchase, but its current price of £500 (~$700) will surely deter most potential buyers.
