One example of prior art from 2012, a lifelogging camera pendant: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Narrative_Clip

A blackbox recorder for our lives seems like a good thing overall.

I had one of those, though I used it as a way to automatically get a smattering of photos while doing tourist stuff or going to concerts, rather than lifelogging. It was also pretty great for no-effort time lapses. I'm still disappointed there isn't any decent successor that can meet the same basic functionality, especially battery life.

Not sure if they are still being manufactured but there are still new Ion Snap wearable cameras on eBay:

Probably lower quality than the Narrative Clip but I think somewhat smaller and lighter weight. Don't remember if it captures audio. It normally requires tapping on it to make it record a video clip or photo, but it can record time lapses as well. The Windows software for it is very clunky.
