Security Camcorder hidden in Clock

Would you like to know what really happened at home or at the office while you were away? Now you have a chance to see! This low-profile, fully functional and discreet LCD clock has a digital video camera hidden inside. This motion-activated camcorder will turn on and record full-motion, full-color video whenever someone moves into its wide field-of-view; then shut off automatically when activity stops. When you return, simply play the AVI digital video files (with 320×240 pixel VGA resolution) through your computer or laptop using the included USB cable.

Unlike elaborate, expensive security cameras that require a VCR or television for playback, this discreet device is a simple, self-contained system that is ready to go right out of the box. Just place it on any surface and adjust the camera lens angle by using the reflective positioning dome to see the area covered by the wide-angle 75° view. Press a button to activate the motion-sensitive camcorder, and you have a few minutes to exit before it’s ready to record.

Video game makers have been experimenting with live-action video in games since the early 1980s but EyeToy (a digital camera for PlayStation2) marks the first time it’s been done right. The device magically superimposes video-game graphics onto a player’s image and translates his or her movements into controlling elements of the game.

Most Americans Wait For Gadgets To Be Proven

Miscellaneous / By /

By Eric Gwinn, Chicago Tribune

Want a notebook computer that fits in your purse? Or a USB memory stick shaped like sushi? How about a 5-megapixel camera that’s smaller than your wallet? Maybe you fancy a laptop made of the same material that keeps jet aircraft safe. Gadgets express who we are in ways other status symbols can’t. You can’t carry your car with you everywhere you go. And though your shoes are always with you, they don’t tell everyone how imaginative and tech-savvy you are. Whip out a notebook computer with an Apple logo on it, however, and people instantly know what you’re all about.

Finding that purse-sized notebook computer or sushi-shaped memory stick – gadgets that look and act like nobody else’s – takes a wee bit of effort, though, unless you live in Asia, particularly Japan.
