UMorph: Self-Change Tracker to Reflect Yourself to the Future and Past

ABSTRACT

Taking photos has become not only a daily but also an automatic activity. But how do we use all these pictures? Storage and retrieval are certainly not as well developed as capturing. Storage systems organize photos in the temporal dimension, for example, the Facebook service "Year in Review" or in visual diaries, but typically do not support a systematic comparison. That was the inspiration for this demonstration, employing automatically taken photographs and arranging them so that one could easily go back in time to reflect oneself to the future and past. This is useful for tracking well-being and body changes using time physicalization with a natural interface, as well as an unobtrusive way for systematic capturing of facial images over time.
