Image capture

A head-mountable device (HMD) comprising:

• a motion detection system configured to acquire movement data associated with the HMD;
• an image-capture device arranged to capture image data that corresponds to a wearer-view associated with the HMD;
• an eye-tracking system configured to acquire eye-movement data;
• and
• a controller configured to:
• receive the movement data
• determine movements of the HMD based on the movement data
• receive the eye-movement data;
• determine that the eye-movement data corresponds to sustained gaze based on the eye-movement data indicating a series of gaze points shifting in substantially an opposite direction as the movements of the HMD and responsively:
• determine a location of the sustained gaze in the wearer-view;
• cause the image-capture device to capture an image that includes a view of the location of the sustained gaze;
• determine at least one indication of a context of the captured image;
• and
• cause a record for the captured image to be stored in a data item-attribute database, wherein the record includes the at least one indication of the context of the captured image.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium having stored thereon instructions executable by a computing device to cause the computing device to perform functions comprising:

• receiving eye-movement data associated with a head-mountable device (HMD), wherein the HMD comprises an image-capture device, and wherein the image-capture device is arranged to capture image data that corresponds to a wearer-view that is associated with the HMD;
• receiving movement data associated with the HMD;
• determining movements of the HMD based on the movement data;
• determining that the eye-movement data corresponds to sustained gaze based on the eye-movement data indicating a series of gaze points shifting in substantially an opposite direction as the movements of the HMD and responsively:
• determining a location of the sustained gaze in the wearer-view;
• causing the image-capture device to capture an image that includes a view of the location of the sustained gaze;
• determining at least one indication of a context of the captured image;
• and
• causing a record for the captured image to be stored in a data item-attribute database, wherein the record includes the at least one indication of the context of the captured image.
