Projects

• Privacy Protected Life-Log System (link)

This Project addresses the privacy issues related to Life-log system (A system which captures everything, everywhere and every moment of your experience). Recent advances in wearable technology makes it possible for us to capture not just the snap shots our life but whole life-time experience continuously. While there are many technical challenges to manage these huge amount of memories, privacy issues are also very important and carefully addressed to make the Life-log system practical and useful.   

In this project, we are implementing a practical system that combines real-time audio distortion and visual blocking of faces to protect the privacy of subjects captured in the video. For further information please visit the project website.
