A device and method are provided for performing a triggered action. In one implementation, an apparatus for processing real time images of an environment of a user is provided. The apparatus may include an image sensor configured to capture image data for providing a plurality of sequential images of the environment of the user. The apparatus may also include at least one processor device configured to identify a trigger associated with a desire of the user to cause at least one pre-defined action associated with an object. The trigger may include an erratic movement of the object. In response to identification of the trigger, the at least one processor device may also be configured to identify a captured representation of the object. Based on at least the captured representation of the object, the at least one processor device may be configured to execute the at least one pre-defined action.
