Particularly, embedded systems play the important role in the field of Mobile Devices. Many sensors are mounted on the embedded system in order to satisfy the user requirement or provide many services. But there are apparatus (sensors) which a user doesn't want. Moreover if the system is applied to a new application, the system has to be made again. Therefore the reconfigurable system can have many advantages according to a need. In the presented paper, the reconfigurable life-log system was developed for life-log service by using embedded system. A system can be comprised of selected apparatus or sensors by users. The users can select the preferring functions and reconfigure the system. We designed of two kinds of wearable life-log systems. The first is belt type wearable life-log system, the second is headband type wearable life-log system for physiological signals. In our developed system, the temperature sensor, accelerometer, illumination sensor, and GPS are used as the apparatus.
