Abstract
Disclosed herein are wrist-worn devices with a camera which enable a person to record images of food or environmental scenes without contorting their arm. Devices can allow a camera to be moved independently from the rest of the device. A camera can be on a flip-up display with features which decrease the chances of the display snagging on an object and breaking off. A camera can be on the rim of an enclosure held on the dorsal side of a wrist with a bifurcating band, so that the band does not block the camera's view.
