Security is so important these days, whether in a personal or professional environment. A comprehensive surveillance system can include various different cameras linked to a digital or analog recording system. Whilst this setup is ideal for a retail operation or office environment, for example, your needs may not be as comprehensive and you may be looking for something a lot more manageable and subtle. Would you believe that it is now possible to incorporate audio and video recording capabilities into something as small as a pen? Check out the pocket DVR camera.
The concept of the hidden spy camera is quite established. It is possible to set one up with in a variety of different objects such as a radio, an exit sign, and alarm clock or even a toy animal. However, none of these are highly portable but recent developments have resulted in cameras which can be fitted into tiny objects, such as a working ballpoint pen.
A pocket DVR camera is absolutely ideal for recording proceedings in a close up, personal environment. The pen includes a mini DVR attached to a very small camera, but works perfectly for its intended function. You can wear the pen or use it in such a way as to capture the required material.
DVR recording does not require bulky tapes, as the technology records video to a hard drive, miniature in this case. Technological advancements have made it possible to come up with a pocket DVR camera, impossible just a few years back.
The pocket DVR camera is started by clicking the top, just as you would if you were opening the pen to start writing. You can record up to two hours on a single charge and the pen can be plugged into a device, or into the wall or your computer to charge.
Amazingly the pocket DVR camera has a highly sensitive microphone that has a range of up to 15 feet and video recordings can be viewed via the high-speed USB port on your computer. The USB technology allows you to connect the pen to one of the major computer operating systems and automatically install drivers to view contents with no further hassle.
The pocket DVR camera pen includes a camera that can record to a resolution of 300,000 pixels in full color. When you are ready to record a conversation, you should note that the item also has a 2 GB flash memory.
Always ensure that you consult proper legal advice before you use the pocket DVR camera. You need to make sure that the device is for you in your particular situation, but in the field of private investigation or undercover law enforcement this could be a handy device.
