Many elderly citizens suffer from irregular heartbeat due to common cardiac diseases such as atrial fibrillation. Even though information pertaining to the activities that elderly were engaging during the occurrences of irregular heartbeat would be critical for the doctor to arrive at an accurate diagnostics, it is highly unlikely to monitor the patient throughout the day or inquire the patient to recollect the incidences, thereby resulting in the loss critical information. In this paper, we present a small, wearable lifelogging camera, LifeVision capable of automatically and selectively taking a series of photos at the time of abnormal heartbeat of the wearer as well as environmental factors such as heat, light, range and sound. Experiments were carried out with the LifeVision device across ten subjects and the results validated the ability of the developed system to capture the moments during irregular heartbeat in all cases.
