RC Laser Tag Car
This RC car has a few nice extras. It’s equipped with a video camera wich sends a video stream to the 2.4″ display on the remote control, but there’s already a few cars that do that. What other cars don’t have, though, is laser tag equipment! It contains an IR laser and sensor, so you [...]
Home Sentry Bot
I guess the title suggests this is about some sort of Terminator or Cylon guarding your house I have to disappoint you. This sentry robot doesn’t have a titanium frame, enough firepower to reduce a person to hamburger meat or a cool sweeping red light. You can, however, control it from any device that’s connected [...]
TIE Fighter Webcam
Here’s a Star Wars gadget that, just for this once, is not R2D2. This webcam is shaped like Darth Vader’s very own Advanced TIE Fighter prototype. It has a built-in microphone, so it has everything you need for video chat, and also has light and sound effects that come straight from the movies. Now if [...]
James Bond’s Sunglasses
Not really, of course. James Bond may wear sunglasses with a built-in spy camera, but it will probably be a little bit better than this one. Still, it’s a great toy for any wannabe-spies or anyone who wants to capture the most embarrasing moments of friends and family members and then put them on Youtube [...]
50 Megapixel Camera!
If the already large amount of megapixels found on standard DSLR cameras isn’t enough for you, check this out: a 50 megapixel camera! It’s the H3DII, Hasselblad’s newest flagship. It has a sensor that’s twice the size of a regular DSLR sensor. It can take compact flash cards, and with such a sensor, you’d better [...]
DIY Spy Helicopter
This was actually the first thing I thought of when I first saw the PicoZ helicopter, but I thought it wouldn’t be possible because those tiny helicopters can’t carry any weight. But apparently, it’s possible with a very tiny camera module. Of course, you can’t expect anything too spectacular from this, but it still looks [...]
Radio Controlled Spy Plane
Remote controlled planes are incredibly fun, and one that can take pictures is even more fun! This twin-engine plane has a wing span of 140 centimeters and a flying range of over 300 meters. The engines are ducted fan jets, wich look like actual jet engines (even though they are electric engines with propellers). The [...]
The Monsterpod
When I first saw this thing, I thought it was some sort of frisbee. It’s not, of course, and it’s also not an extraterrestrial reconnaissance probe. It’s a sticky camera mount that you can apply on almost anything!
How does it work? It’s made of a viscoelastic polymer that will mold and stick to anything. Unlike [...]
First Person RC Car
There have been RC cars with built-in cameras before, but this is something quite unique. This car comes with a VR headset complete with pan and tilt sensors. It connects to the camera module in the car over a separate wireless connection. The camera follows the movements of the VR headset, so it literally places [...]
High Definition Camcorder
With HD TV finally becoming more mainstream, camcorders simply have to follow. And here are a few nice ones to start with: the Aiptek HD Camcorders. Both cameras can record in 1280×720 resolution af 30 frames per second, and can store up to two hours of video on a 4 gb memory card. They have [...]
