New York Times article on SenseCam

A Little Black Box to Jog Failing Memory, By YUDHIJIT BHATTACHARJEE, NYT, March 8, 2010.

A nice article on SenseCam with a focus on memory-loss applications.

Two years ago, Mr. Reznick, who has early-stage Alzheimer’s disease and is now 82, signed up for an experiment intended to help people with Alzheimer’s and other memory disorders. The concept was simple: using digital pictures and audio to archive an experience like a weekend visit from the grandchildren, creating a summary of the resulting content by picking crucial images, and reviewing them periodically to awaken and strengthen the memory of the event.
