First-Person Cooking 第一人称烹饪

webcam and bike helmet work well together, (only USB wire is enough to fix the camera, no tap needed!)
feeling a bit awkward behind a camera facing forward above head
notable perspective difference  between eye and camera
several interconnected USB wires, geometry of kitchen, laptop location

found a paper:
"First-person cooking: a dual-perspective interactive kitchen counter"
http://portal.acm.org/citation.cfm?id=1753992
but they seems were using two fixed location cameras, not really First-Person as in FPS
