System and method for remote activation of a storage operation of pictorial information

A method of activating a storage operation of pictorial information, comprising the steps of:

• providing a wearable sensor device comprising at least one sensor providing sensor signals, a processing unit for running computer programs, a first memory unit for storing instructions for said computer programs and a wireless signaling unit for communicating with external devices over a wireless link;
• providing at least one second digital device comprising a recording apparatus adapted to be set to continuous capture of pictorial information, a second memory unit, and a wireless signaling system for communicating with external devices over a wireless link;
• producing in said wearable device, based on said sensor signals, commands to instruct storage of pictorial information in said second device;
• transmitting by means of one-way transmission said commands over said wireless link to said second device;
• and
• receiving said commands in said at least one second device and triggering in response to said commands storage of at least part of said continuously captured pictorial information in a memory of said at least one second device
• wherein said commands are generated within the wearable device based on sensor signals tracking the proximity of a user carrying said wearable sensor device to the second digital device.
