We are recruiting participants for an egocentric video data collection project focused on capturing authentic, everyday activities from a first-person perspective.

• Cleaning and organizing your home
• Laundry and household tasks
• Working or studying
• Shopping and running errands
• Walking, commuting, or spending time outdoors
• Gardening or yard work
• Creative activities such as drawing or playing music
• Pet care and other everyday routines

• Have Insta360 X5
• Record approximately 10-minute continuous first-person videos using a head-mounted Insta360 X5.
• Perform assigned everyday activities naturally and without following a scripted performance.
• Follow simple recording and camera setup instructions.
• Record in eligible residential, outdoor, and, where appropriate, commercial environments.
• Provide basic information about each recording, such as the activity performed and recording environment.
• Follow all privacy, consent, and data collection requirements.
• Complete training and sample recordings before beginning full production.
