RedAlert motion-sensitive recorder captures video and images

Gizmo of the Day, Home Automation / By /

Here is another security monitor for your home – the RedAlert by Swann which is primarily a motion-sensitive video recorder. It records either JPEG photos or AVI videos when motion is selected. It can record from 1 camera at a time, although you can hook up a wired camera to it as well and switch between that and the included wireless camera. There’s a PIP feature that lets you watch both simultaneously.

The included 128MB SD card can record 250 10 second videos, and the wireless camera can ‘see in the dark’ up to 16ft away. Connects to your TV for viewing the photos and video. What’s really missing is a network capability so you can monitor your cameras remotely.

alesis protrack stereo recorder for ipodThe Alesis ProTrack Stereo Recorder for iPod is perfect if you’re a journalist or conduct interviews or like recording lectures/classes, but would rather not walk around with yet another gadget.

The Alesis ProTrack is a stereo recorder and you don’t need any additional cables, just plug it into your iPod. You can record 44.1kHz or 22kHz digital audio via its condenser microphones and what’s nice is that there’s an app for you to view the levels.

PS> If you’re a student who would like to record your class lectures, but don’t need this level of audio quality, you really need to take a look at the Livescribe Pulse Smartpen.
