The processing device may be programmed to analyze at least one image captured by the wearable image sensor included in the wearable apparatus from an environment of a user of the wearable apparatus, obtain information based on a result of the analysis of the at least one captured image, generate at least one contact recommendation for at least one new social network contact based on the obtained information, and provide the at least one contact recommendation to at least one of the user and at least one other person. ## Claims ### Claim 1 A system for providing recommendations based on images captured by a wearable apparatus, the system comprising: at least one processing device programmed to: analyze at least one image captured by a wearable image sensor from an environment of a user of the wearable apparatus to determine a person is reading a book, wherein the at least one captured image depicts the person reading the book in the environment of the user and the wearable image sensor is included in the wearable apparatus; obtain information related to the book based on the analysis of the at least one captured image; generate at least one contact recommendation for the person for at least one social network contact based on the obtained information; and provide the at least one contact recommendation to the person. ### Claim 2 (depends on 1) The system of claim 1, wherein the at least one processing device is further programmed to obtain additional information based on an analysis of at least one image captured by a second wearable apparatus, and wherein generating the at least one recommendation is further based on the obtained additional information. ### Claim 3 (depends on 1) The system of claim 1, wherein the obtained information includes identity information of at least one person present in the environment of the user of the wearable apparatus. ### Claim 4 (depends on 3) The system of claim 3, wherein the at least one additional person includes at least one of the at least one person present in the environment of the user of the wearable apparatus. ### Claim 5 (depends on 1) The system of claim 1, wherein the at least one contact recommendation is based on an interaction with identified people and a length of the interaction. ### Claim 6 (depends on 2) The system of claim 2, wherein a plurality of wearable apparatuses are associated with a plurality of users. ### Claim 7 A method for providing recommendations based on images captured by a wearable apparatus, the method comprising: analyzing, via at least one processing device, at least one image captured by a wearable image sensor from an environment of a user of the wearable apparatus to determine a person is reading a book, wherein the at least one captured image depicts the person reading the book in the environment of the user and the wearable image sensor is included in the wearable apparatus; obtaining information related to the book based on the analysis of the at least one captured image; generating at least one contact recommendation for the person for at least one social network contact based on the obtained information; and providing the at least one contact recommendation to the person. ### Claim 8 (depends on 7) The method of claim 7, further comprising: obtaining additional information based on an analysis of at least one image captured by a second wearable apparatus, and wherein generating the at least one recommendation is further based on the obtained additional information. ### Claim 9 (depends on 7) The method of claim 7, wherein the obtained information includes identity information of at least one person present in the environment of the user of the wearable apparatus. ### Claim 10 (depends on 9) The method of claim 9, wherein the at least one additional person includes at least one of the at least one person present in the environment of the user of the wearable apparatus. ### Claim 11 (depends on 7) The method of claim 7, wherein the at least one contact recommendation is based on an interaction with identified people and a length of the interaction. ### Claim 12 (depends on 8) The method of claim 8, wherein a plurality of wearable apparatuses are associated with a plurality of users. ### Claim 13 A non-transitory computer-readable medium that stores instructions that, when executed by at least one processing device, cause the at least one processing device to perform operations comprising: analyzing at least one image captured by a wearable image sensor from an environment of a person of the wearable apparatus to determine the user is reading a book, wherein the at least one captured image depicts the person reading the book in the environment of the user and the wearable image sensor is included in the wearable apparatus; obtaining information related to the book based on the analysis of the at least one captured image; generating at least one contact recommendation of the person for at least one social network contact based on the obtained information; and providing the at least one contact recommendation to the person.
