Abstract
A wearable imaging apparatus is provided for capturing and processing images from an environment of a user. In one implementation, the wearable apparatus may be configured with a memory for storing privacy mode triggers and associated automatically variable privacy mode settings, and at least one processing device. The processing device may analyze the images captured by the wearable apparatus, and recognize the presence of at least one of the privacy mode triggers within the images. After recognizing the at least one trigger, the processing device may cause one or more adjustments to the wearable apparatus based on the privacy mode settings associated with the at least one trigger.
