There are many varieties of cameras, but the developers of one hope their's will stand out.

Coined the world's first "intelligent" camera, OMG Life's Autographer is a hands-free wearable device that allows users to automatically capture an array of images in a day. The camera uses five sensors to choose the perfect time to take a photo, detecting changes in light, motion, direction, color and temperature.

In addition, the camera can connect via Bluetooth to the Autographer application that can be downloaded onto your iPhone in order to view, tag, delete and share captured images on the go. With this application, users are also able to create videos and GIFs directly from their iPhone.
